I don't see Beck's name on this cover so I think this counts doesn't it? - Submitted by: Celeste

Although some google images have both "Brand New" and "Deja Entendu" on them, they're photoshopped in. Great album despite the lack of text. - Submitted by: Weily Coyote

Pink Floyd
"Dark Side of the Moon 30th Anniversary Edition"
Here's a good example of "No Band Name." - Submitted by: Celeste
Pink Floyd
"The Division Bell"
Pink Floyd have always been a master in hiding the band's name and the album title. In some cases one even had to look on the record label for band and title like was the case with "Dark Side of the Moon". - Submitted by: Rijk Zandstra
Prince
"The Black Album"
The retailers stuck some stickers on these, but those are on the shrinkwrap, not part of the official cover art. Prince takes the Beatles "White Album" a step further and put nothing on the cover. Something the Beatles weren't allowed to do (even though they intended to).
The Rolling Stones
"Their Satanic Majesties Request"
- Submitted by: Terry McLaughlin
Sly & the Family Stone
"There's A Riot Going On"
- Submitted by: Terry McLaughlin
