I didn't go off on a rant about how ****ty it is, its an opinion.. and I still don't like it. There are plenty of album covers posted here that I like, I respect the fact that others may not. Please do the same.

I just think covers should reflect the music in some way.

Yes, but if a cover completely sucks you should not think any less of the music.

Do you regularly listen to albums with songs such as 'Hello Sailor'.

Nah, but I do listen to songs with titles like "Mountain of Fruit and Flowers"

And if you think that's great, here is the album that sleeve is from.

Each of you get to nominate 2 album covers that you thing are really awful. When I get around 30 nominations i'll start to pair them off against each other in a knockout tournament until we have one winner.

Here's my two nominations to start things off .......

Moderator cut: image removed
Kevin Rowlands - My Beauty

What beauty?


Alice Cooper - Pretties For You

Just what the hell is going on in this picture?
Who owns those cars?
Why is that woman cooling her minge against that ice cream?
Why is there a shed in the middle of that picture?
And WTF has any of this got to do with an Alice Cooper album?

your turn
Pretties For You is just right messed in the broken headed numb skull as it is.
10 Minutes Before the Worm. "Everything is standing still. illl. illl"
No Longer Umpire. "Who lies and who try's to come over everyone,
Painting a picture to show everyone in the world"
Applebush. "Live with the people who live with ease,
The red apple bush and the blue apple trees"
I also heard that The Melvins did a cover of his song "Today Mueller" which I have never heard but that song is freakin' messed too. These are just examples off the top of my head. I guess what I'm saying is what kind of album art should have been to represent an album that was so undefinable as Pretties?
EDIT : Sorry my mistake the Melvins cover is "The Ballad of Dwight Fry" which is a messed tune also though (I say).
