It’s that time of the week (y’know, near the end, waiting for the weekend) where we could all use a bit of a distraction to carry us into the weekend. Thankfully, for the past year, Tumblr artist JB has been animating album covers, many of them metal ones. Judging from the looks of things, he’s a power metal fan, as multiple Helloween and Nightwish albums have been given. There’s nothing better than the above image of Judas Priest’s Ram it Down, but as you’ll see below, a lot of them come close, especially the Maiden and Cannibal Corpse ones. This is an instant follow if you’re on Tumblr.      

Iron Maiden, Piece of Mind

Cannibal Corpse, Butchered at Birth

Metallica, …And Justice For All

Helloween, Keeper of the Seven Keys, Part 1
