Evan Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 They shoulda just altered some Pavement albums cover. This is just freaky and Thomas Dolby's The Golden Age of Wireless is fantastic. However, the cover is just lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Pavement - Crooked Rain, Crooked RainWhaaat?That's a great album cover (like all their records). It was the perfect counterpoint to the Slanted and Enchanted cover released 2 years prior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 The award for the absolute worst album cover ever SHOULD go to the Scorpions for the original artwork to the album "Virgin Killer" I don't want to see it again, so a quick Google search should suffice. NOT SAFE FOR WORK OR PUBLIC!!!What makes that cover even more disturbing is how some of the band stood by that cover for a while. Over time they have lessened their "support" but still...I had never heard of this. So I googled it. I wish I had not. That was all kinds of disturbing.

JGCleveland Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I actually have always liked this cover. From a design standpoint it's a mess, but I think it really captured the sound and style of De La Soul, along with the time it was made, so it worked.Anways: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 Did you know all those horrid Pen & Pixel covers are basically done on an assembly line? I saw some British documentary on it. Some guy just cranks out various tropes and throws them together with no real thought. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRM_PTX Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Not necessarily bad, just bland. For Joshua Tree they should've had a picture of the actual Joshua Tree with a simple and small "U2" in one of the corners. Apologies for the HUGE pictures. Then I told that teacher lady the only three letters I need to know are U, S, and A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discogod Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Quite possibly my favourite album of all time, but just an appalling cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connriv Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 I'm amazed at what some of you consider a "good" album. Panic at the Disco?? Creed??!?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadSeed84 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Per wikipediaThe album's artwork, featuring a plastic skull with tinfoil, was not intended to be the original artwork.[10] Both Mustaine and Ellefson had many phone conversations with Combat Records to get the cover artwork properly reproduced from a sketch given to them by Mustaine of a picture of Megadeth mascot Vic Rattlehead on the cover. However the studio lost the artwork, and instead made their own improvised and low-budget replacement, with which Mustaine and the whole band were mortified.[4] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappital92 Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 This cover was banned in Spain. The reason it was banned was because of the prostitutes, but can we just pretend it was because of the use of Mistral? http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes?
