** The album ''Dial M'' doesn't count, but covers of associated releases--the single "The Brightest of the Head", and the ''Minor Keys EP''--just feature blocky white and red text on a black background.
** Side project: ''The Right Amount'' by Bon Voyage was a light bulb against a black background. The only text was on a removable sticker.
* [[Joy Electric]]'s ''[[wikipedia:File:TWS.jpg|The White Songbook]]'', ''[[wikipedia:File:HellomannequinchrHellomannequin(28)albumchr(29album).jpg|Hello Mannequin]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:File:TMOA chr(28)albumchr(29album).jpg|The Ministry of Archers]]''.

* ''[[Front Mission|Front Missions]] 2'' and ''Alternative''.
