One Of These Things Is Not Like The Others of the Day: Hint: It’s the one with the cover story about how it’s completely okay, if not beneficial, to feel unease about future uncertainties, as opposed to, say, riot in the streets until sh*t gets done.

Sadly, this is a fairly common occurrence.

In the 10 years Bob and I have been producing All Songs Considered, one thing we’ve both noticed is how easy it is to judge an album by its cover art. We get several hundred CDs in the mail each week, and as we quickly sort through them, we can often eyeball which ones we’re going to like. Rarely do we love the cover of an album and hate the music, or vice versa, though there are exceptions (I almost always love The New Pornographers’ songs way more than the band’s sometimes baffling cover art.)

Anyway, in no particular order, here are 10 of the most memorable album covers of 2009. (The music is worth checking out, too.)
