This Artist Takes Famous Album Covers and Gives Them a Star Wars Twist

Album covers, especially the memorable ones, are timeless works of art. Sometimes they're pieces of minimalist perfection, like Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon cover, while other times, they're intricate, epic, and colorful paintings—think Iron Maiden's iconic covers. And then, some simply feature a striking image of the artist, like Björk on her debut album or Prince, shirtless, on his second album cover. Digital artist Steven Lear takes these classic covers and gives them an imaginative twist from a galaxy far, far away.

For instance, AC/DC becomes "R2/D2," Radiohead transforms into "Hammerhead" (a subtle but clever Star Wars nod), and Eminem's Encore morphs into "Rancor." One standout example is his reinterpretation of Frank Zappa's Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch, which he turns into Sandcrawler Arriving to Save a lost Jawa. Each one is a unique, playful blend of music and Star Wars lore. Check out more of Steven Lear's impressive work through this link!
