Top 10 Metal Album Cover Arts Created by Band Members

Usually they are created by one band member who has talents outside music.
The Top Ten
1 Urn - Ne Obliviscaris

My favorite metal album of 2017.
This cover was created by Xenoyr (Xen) - vocalist (harsh vox) and lyricist who also creates artwork for other bands.

2 The Great Mass - Septicflesh

Created by vocalist (harsh vox) and bassist Spiros Antoniou.
Septicflesh are a great metal band from Greece that play symphonic death metal. The cover art fits their music perfectly.

3 Portal of I - Ne Obliviscaris
4 Nothingface - Voivod
5 Dimension Hatröss - Voivod
6 Citadel - Ne Obliviscaris
7 Codex Omega - Septicflesh
8 L'enfant Sauvage - Gojira
9 Probot - Dave Grohl

Created by Michael 'Away' Langevin, the drummer for metal band Voivod.
This album was a side project and Michael Langevin was part of it as a musician but also designed the album art.

10 R.I.P. - Coroner

Created by their drummer Marky Edelmann (aka Marquis Marky).
He provided the cover design and took the pictures

The Contenders
11 Titan - Septicflesh
12 Communion - Septicflesh
13 Master of Puppets - Metallica

Great cover but I didn't put it very high because it was PARTLY created by Metallica (it wasn't painted by the band):
"The cover was designed by Metallica and Peter Mensch, and painted by Don Brautigam. It depicts a cemetery field of white crosses tethered to strings, manipulated by a pair of hands in a blood-red sky. "
