You have just invented "objectively bad taste".

It's funny, I love Helloween, but I always considered them a band with an awful track record as far as album artwork goes. Better Than Raw (NSFW link in above posts) is the only one I really like.

Btw, if there isn't a "best album covers thread" already, there should be.

The album is better than its reputation, but the cover really is awful:


And this one is just too great for words:
