Creepy/Disturbing album covers? :/
 
I find Quiet Riot's Metal Health album creepy and disturbing. A guy wearing a straightjacket and an iron mask and his only visible eye is looking at us in fear ... :/

How about:

I bought a copy of this one on vinyl when it was released in 1991...

Spoiler for Unsane:


Unsane - Unsane (1991)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsane_(album)

Quote:

The album's cover art, depicting a decapitated corpse on subway tracks, was given to the band from a friend who worked on the investigation for the case.

Still have it in my collection.

Another one I just thought of is the "Headache / Heartbeat" EP from Big Black. A friend of mine had one of the first pressings which had a cover photo of the head of a shotgun suicide victim whose head was split in half. It was released in an outer wrapper (concealing the photo cover) made from the material that body bags are made of. The cover was changed after a limited number of them were sent out.

Too gruesome even for my black humor taste.

I would think anything from Cannibal Corpse would be disturbing.

I have the Nothing Safe compilation from Alice in Chains. Seeing a body in what looks like a jar is creepy.

I find The Ghetto Boys Album disturbing. The one where the Singer is rushed to the ER in a stretcher is and has a bloodied and blacked eye! :O His Bandmates have a look of horror in their expressions and he looks understandably miserable.

Lol

I read the cover and thought it was "severed urinal".

Am I the only one who thinks that the jedi cover looks similar to the Rage against the machine debut?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mo...oney_Store.jpg The Money Store by Death Grips is pretty weird and No Love Deep Web by Death Grips is just a penis

This album cover by The Rolling Stones is disturbing. Just all five Rolling Stones giving the camera dazed, stoned looks

https://youtu.be/MSSxnv1_J2g Here is the album cover in question.

Mick looks downright miserable(Bottom right)

SGR 03-28-2023 09:56 AM

Looks like a normal picture to me

Pat Boone looking like he's going to flay your children in front of you.

Pat's cover is an extreme closeup of his face which makes this look disturbing. :/

Danzaburou 03-29-2023 06:28 AM

I mean this one for sure

Queen's Miracle is also kinda creepy

^ I'm guessing that clown is holding a balloon in his right hand but it almost looks like a condom.

Blood, Sugar,Sex, Magic album by the Red Hot Chili Peppers is a creepy cover..The Members of the Band all have their tongues sticking out and they are surrounded by thorns. This album is both creepy and disturbing to me. :/

Quiet Riot's Metal Health album is creepy/disturbing. A Mental hospital Patient in a straitjacket and an iron maiden mask with one eye looking out in fear.... Yeah, creepy and disturbing. :O
