A user has requested a review of the status of this image under our policy for non-free content. Please do not remove this template until an independent review has taken place.

Rationale for use: image is useful, obviously, to show the album cover on the album's main page, but equally as acceptable for the band's page, as it provides a depiction of their most recent release (also their highest chart debut), making it a notable inclusion for that page.

Non-free / fair use media rationale – non-free album cover –for Dead Again (Type O Negative album)
Description	This is the cover art for Dead Again (Type O Negative album) by the artist Type O Negative. The cover art copyright is believed to belong to the label, SPV gmbh, or the graphic artist.
Source	Derived from a scan of the album cover (creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images is still held by the same party). Copyright held by the record company or the artist. Claimed as fair use regardless.
Article	Dead Again (Type O Negative album)
Portion used	The entire cover: because the image is cover art, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.
Low resolution?	The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.
Purpose of use	Infobox, Article. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone.Infobox, Article.Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original artwork, namely the artist's providing graphic design services to music concerns and in turn marketing music to the public.
Replaceable?	As musical cover art, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the music would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Other information	Use of the cover art in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.
