Tricky: Blowback (2001) Ok, so maybe the cover of Blowback, featuring this English rapper having smoke blown back into his mouth, is a bit literal. But it's done with the subtlety and palpable light we've come to expect from music photographer Anton Corbijn, who's shot covers for U2, REM, Bruce Springsteen, Depeche Mode, Metallica, and John Lee Hooker. The inside of the Blowback packaging contains a nice selection of outtakes from the Tricky shoot. -- MJ
