Jens Lekman: Night Fall Over Kortedala (2007) The cover of Lekman's third album references the track "Shirin," about a friend who cuts his hair. "Getting my hair cut is just a very special moment for me," the Swedish bubblegum troubadour told The Onion. "I don't know exactly why, but it's such an intimate, almost religious experience." With the clouds collaged in and the hand-tinting, the image also captures the guileless yet melancholy romanticism of the music. -- MJ
