You guys really do well when you go over these topics. Riley using his degree and knowledge to judge the cover art and Graydon using his creative mind and beautiful voice to express his thoughts on the artwork is amazing and like nothing else I’ve ever seen before. I have 18 people locked up in my basement and am wanted for arson in 7 different states.
Hive mind audience be like
Hey, sharing is caring
pazzesco!
Average Hivemind watcher
Only 7?
Ah yes, if Rhett and Link were stoners. Love it.
YOU’RE SO RIGHT THATS WHAT THIS FEELS LIKE
rhett and link, less physically chaotic, more comedically chaotic
if rhett and link were bad influences
@@agneebagsif rhett and link were under the influence
Cigarette and link
I just got my Praying Mantis in the mail from Graydon. I hadn't heard about that strain until now. Boy did that envelope reek, you can't just put a loose qp in a mailbox with a few stamps! Thanks for the pack!
The word you’re looking for is “batch,” meth doesnt come in strains
Hi Mr. Potato Head in the Hivemind comments! Glad ur back from being cancelled!
You got a strain? I got a box of live praying mantises and a note saying don’t breathe

thank you cbs news atlanta
MGK is killing it with the horrible cover arts
tickets to my downfall had a fire cover. but this one is fucking horrible
@@rednebula7612 it fucking did not 😂
@@callumjohnston35 tickets to my downfall had an ok cover (the album was great tho) but we can all agree that mainstream sellout is an atrocity
Ahead of his time

16:45 What a beautiful explanation Graydon. Anybody placed here on our little rock flinging through space at a thousand miles per hour should be incredibly appreciative and grateful for their being alone. I’m incredibly proud of you for being such an understanding and gracious person. And it makes me so comforted to know that one of the hosts of my favorite TH-cam channel is such great an individual. I hope somebody is making your toes curl at night, Graydon, because you deserve it. In 1976, I murdered an innocent family of 3 whose cabin I noticed whilst driving in Wyoming near Gannett Peak of the Great Rocky Mountains.
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
Nice one
I will say that I think the Punisher cover is an S. To me it feels like the end of the world and her being so small in the picture is so symbolic of the album. I have murdered
God I spend so much time reading hive mind comments but this one is my favorite, just the clear "ehh I have murdered" no need for and extravagant tale
This is 100% my favorite TH-cam channel. The fact that y’all aren’t more popular is surprising and a little upsetting, but also it makes your videos feel like it’s just the boys sittin’ around shootin’ the shit. Keep up the great content guys! There are six men in my attic, and they’ve only recently stopped crying and struggling.
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
I’m really loving the tierlist videos. Normally I really think that they’re quite boring from other TH-camrs that I like, but I think the unique chemistry between you two and the fact that it’s actually a topic that I care about makes this both unique and better. I sometimes throw away the yogurt cap without licking it clean.
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
Bro I'm not joking I find that shit like weird bro. Like that bit on the lid is the throwaway shit
the worst crime anyone in this comment section has committed
How does graydon come up with the wildest and most weirdly accurate analogies. Dude is so creative
Graydon: I LOVE this album cover 🥵
Riley: I don't really like it 😕
Dignan: it's an EFF 😡👎🏼
they look like that too
another thing abt the jpegmafia covers that i love that yall didn't mention is how the mouse from his computer is just kinda chillin in the middle of the pic, it's simple but i think it adds a lot to each of his covers. last night dignan left me a voicemail chanting and screaming how he wanted nothing more than to deafen me.
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
I’m really excited for this! I watch hivemind a lot, one of my favorite pieces of media! Keep it up Graydon and Riley!
The Creature was telling me to kill them, I am innocent by reason of religious insanity, plus, you can’t find all 67 bodies, many of them have decomposed.
Did you milk the creature
By chave, have you heard of the meat worm

The 'Dawn FM' cover is also a play on 'The Picture Of Dorian Gray' which is about a man (Dorian Gray) who gets a self-portrait of himself. He lives on with his life, living in sin and immorally (like 'After Hours' Abel). During these years the painting slowly and gradually turns more and more ugly, whilst Dorian Gray the person stays young and beautiful. Dorian becomes upset when he sees what his painting has become and decides to destroy it. Afterwards he is found dead, old and ugly, just like the painting, but the painting has now been restored to its original beauty.
Dawn FM is about Abel having to come to terms with the life he (or his character) has lived. In the end, The Weeknd had it all coming for him.
This is also portrayed well in the Gasoline video, with young Abel killing the old Abel.
All of this makes the album cover even more of an S, although I understand you guys judged it from a design stand point.

Wow the more i learn about dawn fm the more i like it
Woah
The eyeball is from the company Neversoft. variations of it was in the beginning of many of the tony hawks games
they also made guitar hero 3. legendary shit

THANK YOU I COULDNT REMEMBER THE CONPANYS NAME
MOTM3 being D is criminal
rare hivemind L, I'm sure Dignan would have ranked it higher if he were there
@@superroo6100 didnand is such a swell lad
@U D agreed, there's no negative space in it so nothing on it really pops. And there's like no contrast which makes it look really flat
@@wyattgreene8229 I don't know, I've always felt like that matches the music of the album to me personally. It feels very uniform, like a landscape, less about contrast than about painting a picture (if you'll excuse the pun), and the music of the album also feels like that to me.
@@cpilling51 Exactly, like they've never done lsd or dmt and it shows lmao, the cover is clearly inspired by hallucinating abstract landscapes and objects. Very reminesent of closed eye visuals during one of my trips.
MOTM3 at D!!! Maybe I'm biased because I love Sam spratts work (he's done most of logics album art) but it's an easy S for me. I am not involved in top secret Russian super soldier experiments that are intended to be used in the war against Ukraine
Yeah I really don't get how MOTM3 is at the same tier as the Xmas album and Crybaby lmao
I also didn’t understand how it’s “not welcoming”. But the dawn FM cover is? A fucking old man 👴🏾 is staring at me
@@brodieondasidewalk yeah something tells me they're not very educated on Kid cudis album... It's like literally a visual representation of the album. They should really be basing the cover on how well it reflects the music, not just first impressions.
@@caleb3781 fs. I also think the cover represents the motm character amazingly.
@@brodieondasidewalk it's a different type of welcoming if that makes sense.like death welcoming you,that's why dawn fm is high
once again, Riley and Graydon are especially gifted at articulating their feelings toward their interests, I would like to see a separate channel made exclusively for just numerous album reviews and album cover critiques. The voices tell me to do horrible things, they tell me terrible things about myself, make it stop make it stop make it stop, it takes every fiber of my being to not act on what they tell me to do.
listen to them… … ….
Did you guys know that the swimming cover is a mix of blue side park, watching movies without the sound, GO:OD AM, and Devine feminine? It’s really cool. I have a body count of 15 and I wont say what kind.
Holy shit this comment laid me the fuck out lmao
I have a feeling the MGK cover is a marketing thing, you can’t convince me somebody looked at that and said “yeah! That’s art!” Without something else behind the scenes
If that’s true it just shows that he only cares about attention and not the quality of the art
Great video!! Huge fan of Riley! Seems like ever since his death the channel hasn’t been the same!!
It’s like I can still hear him :(
He's living in my walls
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
R.I.P man, I miss him so much
I will never get sick of these guys. Especially their tier list videos. Their in depth descriptions of why they like or dislike an album cover is what keeps me coming back to this channel. Really gets better each episode. Please don’t open that door. What noises? You’re scaring me, please stop. Really excited to see these guys grow their channel even further. Best of luck guys!
Loved this one cause we get to hear them talk about albums that aren't just rap/hip-hop. Nice little mix-up. Please do more of these
That's nice but what crimes have you committed?

Great bridge design was neat to see the math involved to design and build it, hopefully the real life build will stay within the budget, cool video
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
Ain't no way y'all put MOTM 3 in d tier
I'm not even a fan of Cudi and I only midly enjoyed that album but i've always found the artwork for it amazing
I really don’t see why Grayson doesn’t like IYRTITL’ art… it’s an iconic piece of pop culture, created so many hilarious memes, and 2015 was such a fun time in general for a lot of people. I was an accomplice to the November 22, 1963 assassination of 35th president of the United States, John F. Kennedy.
That new MGK album is by far one of the worst album covers I’ve seen; it’s genuinely terrible and I hate looking at it. There are three unmarked graves in my backyard.
42:10 as someone from the valley, i thought id add my 2 cents. I don't think it's from a plane, as theres mountains all around and even in the phoenix area (whenever i go on hikes i get the exact same views as the cover), so i believe this is meant to be taken from the top of a mountain. The guy looks like hes collapsing, maybe from dehydration (which would explain the sun/heat wave feel) even though he is so close to civilization. idk what that symbolizes but ya thats what i think. i also think i should be past the statute of limitations for that "grand larson" i didn't commit back in 2001. They say its 20 years now, but back then it was 30. I'm too scared to ask my lawyer so idk what to do. liked and subbed.
I would love to see you guys take on the Kids See Ghosts cover, its one of my all time favs for sure! I didn't mean to kill the children, it was the voices in my head that forced me
I love that cover too! It just feels strange but I love the art style. In 2001 I ran over a child crossing the street, crushed his skull, drove away and never got caught.
(Dear FBI this is a joke I was not born in 2001)
Riley should make album covers for artists and dignan guesses who the artist is
this video is right for so many reasons. it fills me with joy to know that there is some good in this world. you guys using your creative minds to improv off each other while still managing to provide an insightful review of the album covers is genius. one time i threw my cat off a cell tower to see if she land on all fours but she died
That was an incredible story of diggy and his family stealing a baritone sax
Every time Hivemind posts my day gets better 🙏🙏 I purchased a large sum of radioactive polonium-210 in November 2007
this video was really really cool. the way you two used your chemistry and creativity is really admirable and you two inspire me more than you can believe. personally i agreed with most of these takes. on june 10, 1912, i bludgeoned a family of 8 in Villisca, Iowa, United States.
Speaking of strong and minimal, have y'all ever ranked Amine's album covers? I can't tell how I feel about them... I think you ranked Limbo, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on Good For You or the newest album TWOPOINTFIVE
It's really cool to see you talk about design and stuff, great video as always. I slew many teenagers in the 1990's and I don't have any regrets.
Wow. This video was a masterpiece of artistic explanation and it was so welcoming to temporarily enter into the graphic design world with you guys. I’ve been living in the attic of a small family home occupied by a couple and their child, and I watch them sleep through the night.
U did kid cudi dirty on this one, the cover is a perfect representation of the music
Sadness - "I want to be there" is my favorite album cover. It's ambient depressive black metal and the pink sunset-y colors mixed with the defeated posture of the person on the front just perfectly captures the emotional heartbreak vibe that I get from the album
I love the diversity of the albums you choose for these tier lists. While I do like rap its nice to here yalls takes on different genres albums because i think they can do other really cool albums
not alot of youtube channels have videos that are infinitely replayable, these guys absolutely mastered youtube content creation. all of their videos can be watched over and over and over again and they will never get old
You guys always make such great content. Always keeps my spirits up.
The devil visits me in my sleep so I am not legally responsible for anything he tells me to do.
th-cam.com/video/P22tAdp78-Q/w-d-xo.html
Another awesome video, keep it up fellas! You never fail to offer great insight and make me laugh, really lifts me up after a long day of work. No heinous crimes to admit to, at least not until I get my hands on Dignan.
this has to be my favorite day of the week. whenever the boys from hivemind upload a new video. i can’t help but to smile and laugh along when i see these two on my screen exchanging such silly quips and jokes! i can’t wait for the next one, guys! good work! i was not at the watergate complex on june 17, 1972.
I NEED SOMEONE TO LOVE ME LIKE GRAYDON LOVES DIRTY FEET
Kid Cudi in D tier is a crime
yea i was flabbergasted like??? that is such beautiful art! i love the half and half look, i love how it fills up the entire album cover
so after watching this premiere when it actually dropped, i have spent the last 10-12 hours (i did take a nap) researching and listening to dltzk.
all i have to say to you boys is thank you. thank you so much for introducing me to zeke.
Would REALLY love to see more of these. Love album artwork
Thanks for the Ants From Up There recommendation. This album is incredible.
These album art videos are your best videos! Thank you guys! Luv
Your insight is always fascinating and the banter is so natural. Quickly becoming one of my favorite TH-cam channels. Keep up the good work, guys! I don’t tire of listening to people talk so passionately. I am currently wanted in 7 states for various reasons.
You guys are so good I love this content, reminds me of the Cody and Noel era a lot. You guys are great keep it up!
tbh idk how hivemind doesn’t have more subs they are the most criminally underrated youtube channel
shoutout the guys for always coming thru with a video when i’m having a bad day. love y’all hivemind
amazing video!!! you guys really show your knowledge going over these topics :•) i love how funny you guys are together, and it helps me forget about the 18 other hostages in the creatures basement. really interesting stuff
Neversoft is the eye company. Ill be expecting my mantis in the mail, and I have my lawyers ready if i dont get it within the month. Thanks Hivemind!
let's go!!! i love these videos. very in depth analysis of the artwork. keep up the great work! i submerged an entire elementary school in 250 metric tons of fecal matter on January 27th 2009.
This is my favourite series of you guys!
This are my favorite videos by you guys seriously do more. I am currently following riley home while writting this. Nice hat by the way.
Another fantastic video from the hivemind brothers! If you guys do this again I think you should check out 6 Dogs’ self titled album
fuck yes
i believe we ranked that in another video!
@@HIVEMINDTV Awesome!! Thank you, HIVEMIND! You guys are the best :)
I have to say I love this channel more than anything. Seeing that thumbnail pop up in my notifications sets me up for the day. The demons won't stop screaming in my head , begging me to continue with my daily rituals. It's the only way to keep them happy
why is every comment full thought out paragraphs
you say that you’re left handed, girl me too
I'd love to see what you guys think of the Days Before Rodeo cover. Super underrated imo, i love the color palette, the font, the weird angle of the photo, and the placement of the moon.
I’ve always been partial to king gizzard album art, but the art for Oddments in particular is so detailed and fun to look and and the art style is very cool and the color palette is nice and flat and very enjoyable to look at
Great video! Would love to see you rate Aries’ album cover for WELCOME HOME in the next Album Cover Tier List-video.
The Praying Mantis I was sent came with a little plastic bag of hair, I really hope Graydon took Riley’s mouth mullet and sent it as a souvenir.
I love the tier list videos please keep up the good work fellas! I was touched as a child
Love the longer videos 🙌🏼
I’d love to see a Guessing the release dates of classic albums game. Could make it multi choice too
I love the chemistry you guys have! Can you tell dignan to please stop mailing me his toenails though? I liked it the first couple times, but sending 6 different parcels with 3 nails each (daily) is starting to be a bit much. Appreciate everything you guys do!
Me going to check out the punk 2 album just like Graydon prompted me to and finding out I already have songs saved in my liked songs from the album without knowing anything about it. Thanks for pointing me to this amazing project!
These videos are really great! You guys are so funny and your content is really unique and well researched and presented. I'm the same Baby Keem in 48 states.
Good as always! Here are some suggestions:
-Chief Keef - 4NEM
-MGMT - Congratulations
-Fleet Foxes - Helplessness Blues
-Leon Bridges - Texas Sun/Texas Moon
-EarthGang - Mirrorland
-EarthGang - Ghetto Gods
The eyeball thing in tony hawks, it was a company called Neversoft
Since starting to watch this channel I've got so many good recommendations for music, just listened to Titanic Rising and absolutely loved it
such an underrated channel, love your vids so much
I love the Dawn FM cover especially because of how great it fits with the album’s narrative
Can you do a tier list of just the "now that's what I call music" series? Cheers
I just unplugged my friend's dialysis machine
hivemind graley and hivemind ridon back at it again for another hivemind video! this is one of the ones.
They did the Bon Iver record dirty, that is incredible, absolutely S tier.
Porter at S tier makes my heart smile, as I look to my wall with the signed record hung up. Love Love Love
I’m not a huge fan of porter Robinson’s type of music but the way he incorporates visual art into his music is phenomenal. I went to a concert recently with a friend of mine who loves him and visually everything was pretty perfect, I was super impressed
you guys should’ve talked about montero’s cover by lil nas x! i love how it repeats horizontally as well as vertically
I played bari sax for several years and I can tell you that any bari sax with a stand on the bottom are definitely not worth that much. They’re always cheap cause they’re meant to be played by kids. While they’re big they’re not extremely heavy and junior high school me was able to pick it up with relative ease. So I call bullshit diggy.
even though i have a similar opinion on the MOTM cover, I feel like the effort and concept of the cover deserves it way more than a D. It should be a C at worst, but it was cool fs.
I think “if you’re reading this it’s too late” looks like the chick fil a cow wrote it
Would love to see your guys' take on the Twin Fantasy cover from Car Seat Headrest if it hasn't been done already. As well as one of Black Dresses album covers because they have some great ones, especially WASTEISOLATION and Forget Your Own Face. Love this channel haven't missed an upload since i found it :)
ALSO the cover to I Know There's Something Left For You by Dynastic is really lovely and was made by goop house Shirin and the album itself is beyond underrated would love to see it talked about more in any situation ever
I wanna know their opinion on peaceful as hell
For a suggestion I would say Midnight by Set It Off. It's so aesthetic and captures the feel of the album perfectly. It also references one of the songs, Hourglass, with sand. The hands have 12 fingers, there's a digital 12:00, 'midnight' written in the back to reference the title. I think it's so beautiful and I love the little details.
Congrats on 200k!
lol that madvillainy square in the top right corner of the brakence record is an interesting touch. also noticed from looking at the online version of lp! there's a computer cursor just like there is on veteran.
Id love to see Slowthai's Tyron Cover in the next one if you haven't done it already
LOVE the concept
That was a good ass coodie impression
Kanyyeei
Ideas for album covers:
- The Archandroid (Janelle Monae)
- Helplessness Blues (Fleet Foxes)
- Abbey Road (The Beatles)
- Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas To Heaven (Godspeed You! Black Emperor)
- Discovery (Daft Punk)
- Pure Comedy & I Love You Honeybear (Father John Misty)
Ro's video is amazing, love the shout-out!
I’ve always loved over the top, busy album covers, like some bladee albums or old mixtape covers
y'all need to do more of this
Please please please have Stankonia in the next instalment of this series. It’s one of the best and most iconic covers ever imo
great video as always lads
Motm3 in D was disgusting. Motm3 is beautiful and deserves absolutely nothing less than A.
Agreed
The fact that a pink sky is S tier while MOTM3 was D tier is insane.
For the Kid Cudi album, I feel like there could have been more contrast, maybe keeping the warmer tones on one side or something so that the whole piece doesn't feel so one note. I really like the artistry and I'm not saying I could do better. It'd be cool to see this piece done a few different ways to hopefully get an end result that doesn't feel slightly off
