Metal Mondays: My Top 5 Thrash Album Covers

Thrash will always have a special place in my heart because it was the first kind of metal I was exposed to (when I was too young to really know what metal was).  I have always loved the cover art of thrash albums, and the art has often played an important role in my decision to purchase an album.  I am especially fond of the covers from the '80s and early '90s; I can't get enough of their cynical political imagery and sardonic wit.  Here are my top 5.  No need for a lot of text here, just enjoy the images:
