It tells you what category it falls into. One can posit that for the album's article, that is necessary and sufficient rationale. We've hashed out the general policy there; it stands; the template's just a pointer to that.
Actually, no - WP:NONFREE, read unforgivingly, says the actual album cover art must be discussed.
I asked the same question about book covers on [[en:WT:NONFREE]] [1] and the overwhelming response there was that use entirely for "identification" is acceptable, and no discussion of the cover art itself is required. I beleive there are currently efforts underway to make a template with a generic fair use rationale for such articles.
