Is that wizard on a motorcycle a new cover? Cos a band in Atlanta called Chopper did that idea for a single years ago.

Hate the Beck cover- looks like a magazine ad as most covers from the past couple of years have.

Already have the original (itself with a sleeve image I'm really fond of), but I'm tempted by this on vinyl.

One of them, yeah- on comparison it looks they did some minor touch-ups (flames in both eye sockets instead of a red laser dot in one, removed the cityscape background, degraded the image a little). I just thought it was a fun reference/appropriation/whatever.
...and here I was going to mention that seeing a track titled "3Jane" on the upcoming EMA album had me wishing for a late 80's/early 90's cyberpunk revival, only now it looks like the track's been retitled "Neuromancer." Subtle!

xxp Looks kind of Acid Mothers Temply.
That Foxes cover. I don't like it. Apparently contrived head-and-shoulders shots of artists staring off-camera and expressing vague emotions annoy me. See also that one St. Vincent cover.

What is the Mø record all about? The cover is surely a tribute to AR & Machines, right?

If you don't want to take a photo for your album cover, you should make some art for it instead.
