It Turns Out Cats Purrfectly Replace Famous Musicians On Iconic Album Covers
Alfra Martini, also known as aymvisuals, turned a classic album-cover idea into something much softer, and a lot more adorable. The digital artist reimagined famous records by swapping out the original musicians for kittens, and the results are exactly as ridiculous and charming as they sound.
From Madonna to David Bowie, these tiny stand-ins bring a whole new energy to some of the most recognizable covers in music history. The concept works because it leans into the internet's favorite rule, cats make everything better, especially when they are dressed up like rock legends.
Scroll through the collection and try not to smile at the purrfectly unexpected lineup.
