Default Bon Jovi font-timeline!!!

Well,I always thought that artistic approach for the front cover could also determine the potential music direction of an album.

In past Bon Jovi had sort of strong, cool and contemporary enough font that can be easily translated to the music they played in 80's,well all rock bands from the 80's followed sort of the same path...

In 90's,the guys gave us in my opinion the best Bon jovi font in their entire carrier,although it could not be closely related to the sound of albums from that period,the font was more aggressive then the previous one IMO,but the sound wasn't,the change was coming,more mature and deeper lyrics,more adult oriented style in songwriting etc...

The 2000 font was also a big change but in wrong direction,the look was lame and uninteresting,something that you could expect from any pop band or artist,but so was the music,and from that time we had a swarm of pop/rock contemporary stuff released so far,and even new font on the single cover hasn't changed much,only the width is longer...

What do you guys think,does the cover of album determine music style direction,and what is your best BJ font?
