Album covers with prominent text that's not artist or title, and preferably without artist/title. I really don't have anything that exactly meets your criteria. FIGHT - "War of Words"Both the front and back covers have lots of text not related to the artist or title, but the artist's logo, album name, and song titles are all prominent, although less so for the song titles.

Might be a bit tougher than I originally thought, the two I posted are the only ones I can think of so far.

I know that a lot of CDs are sold on-line, and a lot of albums are sold as digital downloads. But still, I think it's a pretty bold move to release an album without the artist's name or logo on the front cover. So I'm not surprised it doesn't happen very often. The only example I can think of where the artist name is nowhere to be found on the cover is: TABERAH - "Sinner's Lament" I bought this CD from Amazon.com, so the artist's name was clearly listed on the web page, but I think this cover design could be a problem for shoppers in a physical store.

It's not uncommon for an album cover to have no text, I think some artists like the idea of just an image. Bjork and Sun Kil Moon for example. The albums usually come with a sticker though.
