The album cover for Arctic Monkeys' 4th album "Suck It and See" features a plain white background with the album title written in black capital letters, giving it a simple yet intriguing design.

Oasis' final album before splitting up "Dig Out Your Soul" contains various random powerful images that together convey a strong message, even if the individual meanings are unknown. The hands depicted holding dramatic events can
