ITT: Terrible album covers
Only posting this because I saw some anon post it in a GOOD album covers thread a while back and I want that user to know he is horribly wrong
>>123701062yes, but it was their best cover since And Justice For All
>>123701083>>123701114those are good covers
>>123701121what about this one
>>123701062These geezers really thought pride month Odd Fellows Rest would make good cover art
>>123701151Following in the tradition of weird floating heads
>>123701114Yea, but that album fucking rips though.
not the worst one but do i fucking hate the artstyle
>>123701280Pretty bad but not as bad as The Miracle
>>123701302best (worst) in thread atm
>>123701332hold on this one is good
Good album, tho.
>>123701339im genuienly curious to hear why do you find this one good
>>123701062
Compared to the international cover, this one is kinda ass.
>>123701375My high school girlfriend looked like the girl in the middle, except she wasn't a frankenstein girl
>>123701383>not a frankenstein girlwhy were you even interested in her in the first place then
>>123701398She was pretty cute and had nice perky c cups
>>123701622this is probably the all-time worst
Shitty in the sense he didn't even try.>>123701247>>123701267>>123701302>>123701314shitkino>>123701170>>123701622contenders for actually shit
>>123701308noone replied to thisI know how awful it feelsyou went out of your way to Google that picture, saved it, posted itprobably even refreshed the thread a bit, hoping someone would respond noone did thoughtoo bad
>>123701622>check out rym page for it>nobody mentions the cover arti fucking hate that site>>123701785pic
Almost every Puscifer album cover is a contender
>>123701370>this monkeys gone to heaven> if man is 5 and the devil is 6 then God is 7
>>123701114goes kinda hard desu i like the diy vibe. also good band>>123701151yea kinda goofy, good album though>>123701834this is so intentionally terrible it's good>>123701675i like this
>>123701062i had a shirt with this album cover in middle school, it doesn't fit me anymore
>>123701083>hipgnosis >in this threadfaggot
>>123701375you're the dumbest n ever, this is iconic
>>123701062It's not bad, it just looks like the soundtrack to a documentary >>123701083At the very least iconic, even if ugly >>123701114retard >>123701151The first actual post
10/10 album though
Notorious for being one of the worst metal album covers of all time, but the music is actually quite the opposite. Go figure!
>>123701114>>123701280>>123701375>>123701675All great
>>123701370Good proportion and balance, complimentary colors, reference to one of the main singles (monkey gone to heaven, 5,6,7) and even a b side (13), and finally it fits the sound they're going for.
>>123703649It has some sort of pre 2000s animation cartoon-esque sort of graffiti, pop art, sort of thing. I actually like it, not bad. Not as bad as the iron maiden album cover.
>>123701062>created by a photographer who Lars met during a wedding>Load and Reload album covers were also suggested by LarsHmmm...
>>123702367Worst one of all of these
>>123701241This one would be good if their heads weren't in there.>>123701280Ew. What the fuck
>>123701829Diaper rockin TOOL frontman
>>123703575This isn't bad. Would be better without the text though
>>123702367Gay
amateurs
>>123701829I never thought an album cover could be this terrible. I felt my asshole clench from cringe
>>123701375FAGGOT FAGGOT FAGGOT
Now THAT is a cover.
>>123701797RYM is the reddit of music discussion, almost none of them have a brain.
>>123701368Great fucking album
>>123701062pick at random from Malmsteen's discography
>>123701622what the fuck were they thinking
-
>>123701083This album cover is great, mostly because of who I believe to be Cedric crying in the doorway in the background
>>123701377All of their Australian covers are ass
>>123701829>I-I'm just taking the piss! Ha ha, see? You're just too stupid to understand my high IQ sense of humour!What a tool
If you know, you know
>>123709442MODS
>>123701062fun fact, it was also a terrible album
nobody has posted that iron maiden album yet?
This still looks like a Viper album cover to me.
any bob dylan album with his face on it
>>123701332>he doesn't understand the monkey kaballah
This is in the shitty album cover hall of shame.
>>123712755that's kino, you must be thinking of this
>>123701829Maynard is one BILLION percent a diaper fetishist and it's not even subtle.
>>123709442
>>123712528Top kek. Now that you mentioned it, I can't unsee it. You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Drake.
>>123703566I honestly can't tell if it's bad because extreme metal like that has 99% almost identical covers. If anything, it's inappropriate to have a good looking cover.
>>123703649You could argue that it's a bad metal cover, but it's not bad in general.
>>123701302reminded me of pic related top kek
>>123709250same, his pose always somehow connected to the melodramatic delivery of his vocals on the albumnow if you'll excuse me, i'm off to suck myself off
>>123701062Giving a shit about the cover over the audio on the ablumlol. Really?>the photo attached to my mp3 makes me don’t like the song
>>123701062nice tongue
>>123701829dream theater-esque
>>123701332I think the schizo drawing with forest colors and monke is cool
>>123703575I think it's cool but would have been even cooler if it was Liam and Noel in the photo
>>123713709I'm aware extreme metal has a lot of similar shitty covers but something about this one is just plain awful even for shit standarts. It's the clearly photoshopped porn screenshot with "torture zone" that does it for me.
>>123701310Don't even like Queen but this cover is awesome, don't ever post in this thread again.
>>123717182the cover is the best thing about the album other than brownsville girl
>>123709442The original is one of the best ever.
>>123701622This was also just a bad fucking album. They should have stopped after It's Blitz and let Heads Will Roll be their swan song. They were already pushing it as a 2003 band releasing music in 2009.
>>123701062amazing how cringe they got after the black album
>makes tons of great art for promotional stuff>choose the ugliest one for the cover
>>123717182Are you an idiot or just have shit tastes?
>>123701062Its a shitty knock off of the already not great album art for Odd Fellows Rest by crowbar. OFR deserves a better album cover, Hardwired does not.
>>123719280Oh they literally are a mockery of Oasis, huh? I didn't see that before.
>>123719740>>123719301
this is just a secret metallica hate thread change my mind
one of my favourite albums, but damn it's ugly
>>123701308would be kino if not for the two people riding it
>>123719700No, Rolling Stones.
they fucked it up on that one
>>123719909its better when you discover its a butt
>>123712842>>123701308>>123701241>>123701151same vibe
>>123709442>Virgin Killer "failed to attain any serious attention in the United States" but was "quite popular in Japan"[8] where it peaked at number 32 in the charts.[9]kek no surprise there
all album cover of stone temple pilot is quite unbearable
>>123714519lost at first track is "ride my rocket"these guys are 1000% Spinal Tap.I think muse deserve the title for cringiest cover of all time
>>123701170This would be kino if they bothered to actually put some effort into it instead of just slapping a photo on the tree and making it b/w
>>123717182This has to be one of the best album covers I’ve ever seen
What the fuck were they thinking?!
>>123712789That's also kino
>>123719788God what were they thinking
>>123701829Next time a Toolfag tries to explain why Gaytard is NOT a pretentious no-talent I am just gonna post this.
Bad album covers RUIN otherwise great music because the sound will always be associated with SHIT
>>123722928Autism shouldn't be allowed to speak, but it still does
>>123722915as a toolfan, we all know about this stuff already and don't care. maynard throws down some of the best vocals in the industry AND supports trans rights and personal freedom. kys NSBMfag.
>>123701829Humiliation ritual
what the FUCK did they mean by this?
>>123701829this is the worst cover I have ever seen, no doubt
>>123723169I find this really funny for some reason
>>123723215My guess is they were trying to spoof contemporary movie posters of the 90s (particukarly the fonts), but it came out poorly
>>123722980Nah he was probably into it
>>123723169Not the worst 6/10>>123723121Kind of dumb and the name of the band is kind of dumb too 5/10 >>123723062No foot licking 3/10 >>1237209032/10>>1237202085/10, has an aesthetic to it >>1237201495/10, I can dig it. >>123719853>>123719685>>1237192803/10 just whack
>>123722974>posted an actual NSBMfag
>>123723437literally why
>>123723452It's funny
>>123712528
>>123723121Amy has all the makings of a fuckable punk whore and yet she somehow doesn't do it for me.
It insists upon itself
>>123723546I think it is the face (kind of looks like pennywise) and the accent. Not a hater, their music is meh to me, listened to chewing gum, and the first time I did it was sort of grating and incredibly noticeable, the aussie accent. Certain words and accents aren't mainstream for a reason. She does have a nice enough body, but her face is just a hard look.
>>123701310Reddit, the cover
>>123701332This is stylistically fine, but the idea behind it has not aged well. It was a sort of atheistic ironic comment on religious beliefs, or maybe on the general belief that is a life after, but only for very advanced monkes!Back then this kind of message was probably 'ahead of its time' because religious beliefs were still very prevalent, a lot more than today.
>>123701375anyone who ever liked msi is a fucking faggot loser.
>>123714519woahbadass
>>123719788You can tell by this cover that it's a ROCK band and its members are all ROCKERS that ROCK so hard, they made that toddler bed explode and carbonised everything in the roomCan you imagine how hard their music ROCKS
>>123720132THis is creepy in a tranny sort of way
>>123723860Hell yeah. They kill babies, that is how hard they rock. I mean, god, who rocks so hard, that they involuntarily commit infanticide? Like they seriously don't mean to kill your baby, but you seriously put your infant's life at risk by coming dangerously close within the rock zone.
>>123723795Women liked them more than men
>>123724005Werent msi a pedo band? Some dude in there is a pedo?
>>123724021they were all pedos and all the little faggots who listened to them were pedos too
>>123724021Women don't care about that kind of thing as much as is commonly assumed
>>123724069>>123724115He fucked a 15 year old when he was 27 tho
>>123724158>rock star fucks teenage groupieHoly FUCK, this unprecedented act has me rankled!!!
>>123724171But 15 is a kid tho
>>123701622if they simply clothed the baby then i maintain it wouldn't be as offensive. lots of options with that too..could have him in a tshirt with their band name instead of the fake retro gross out text at the bottom. also have this taking place in a brick walled alley.
>>123724526
>>123701062The new Sum 41 album

>>123701834...LOL!
>>123724183>But 15 is a kid tholmao
>>123719865only time i have ever seen someone mention this band and you're rightsecond album was better though

>>123738806LMAO HE ACTUALLY DID IT AHAHAHAHAHA
>>123703697Great music though
>>123728442Great cover. Bad typography.
>>123745541People who can drive, get a GED, or work a job really aren't kids. There's a stage between childhood and adulthood called adolescence. That's the stage you're in right now fyi, you underage b& faggot. B2tiktok
>>123720117The single with a vulture in a black suit looked better.Great album though.
>>123703697>band claims to hate it>still use it in every reissue
>>123701062Obligatory
>>123701314It was designed poorly on purpose. Look it up on wikipedia.
It's just ugly
>>123703566>DANGER TORTURE ZONEbased
>>123712755>"what the elephant">he's holding an octopuswhat they they mean by this?
>>123748377it's almost as horrible as their musicbut not quite
Most of Hendrix's posthumous releases have trash covers
>>123754921That's drawn by moebius, have some respect
>>123701267is that a...... is that a fuckin juggalo belt buckle?
>>123755321It's a trace actually
>>123701083that was the cover the label wanted. the original cover (picrel) was designed by Storm Thorgerson and wasn't used until the recent reissues
Whatever the fuck this is supposed to be
>>123712789Literally top 10 most iconic covers of the 90s right with Michael Jackson shit. You couldnt be much more of a pleb
>>123701083It fits the albumThat's what a cover should do
>>123714519>ripped as fuck cat-man weilding a primitive dagger and rocking devil hornsThis is sick as hell, brother

>>123726987it's goofy but has a nice color balance and is well-drawn so you kinda forget about it
>>123723581Nah, it's very good.>>123733793Mostly just a lazy cover>>123748251Amazing
>>123755922The original CD release featured both covers; you could just flip the booklet to show that cover.
>>123723581What does this even means?
>>123760095what gave them the idea to make this
>>123723581the 2000s were rife with shitty hand-drawn album covers that appealed exclusively to "alt" teenagers
>>123705342looks like any 70s album cover except for the hairy leg
>>123757314That's not a scenario you would ever experience and it's not something anyone would find particularly odd if it did happen. You sound like someone who's just trying to "hang out" and "sound normal," but not only are you completely incapable of either, in attempting to do so you out yourself as a touchless handholdless incel gooner FUCKING LOSER who only cares about little girls and wishes everyday he could be held more by his mommy because life is just too scawee for the little bitch boy FAGGOT. Do I make myself clear, MOTHERFUCKER???
>>123735719It's this era where the industry was excited about shitty cgi 'cause it was new
>>123747595they can also literally have children at that age
>>123762700...five year olds can have kids too
>>123762734nope

>>123762748yeah
>>123722974>best vocals in the industryHe's cool for supporting civil liberties, but the only thing more retarded than his vocals are the Tool fans themselves.
>>123763189I actually kinda like that one. They look like penguin warriors lolThe music videos are certified cringekino as wellhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP0H491rRFU

>>123764255IMAGINE BEING AT COMPUTERS
>>123701062It looks fan-madeI don't know how to explain it
>>123733429nah some girls just got tiny stubby toes.didn't stop me from nutting between em
the 'deluxe' cover of Vunicura is a lot worse than the actual one
>>123720682This, it actually looks fucking cool. >>123725283What the fuck I never saw this, that's so bad lol>>123735719I actually like the human clay cover, I know i shouldn't but something about the combination of the photo, painting, and bad 3D is kind of cool here.
>>123701267This goes fucking hard, what's wrong with you?
>>123702367They had such a good logo and good covers before Hellfire.
>>123728181This is actually sick, so fucking iconic.
>>123763189Most of their covers look pretty good, the only one I don't like is Blizzard Beasts. You need the logo for this, especially when there's was so good at the time. Looks lazy and bad, silly ass grin on the dude on the right.
>>123724846Battlefront 2 cover
>>123738098Are you a fucking idiot? Jamie Hewlett isn't in the band. They paid him money to come up with a cover, told him what they wanted and he gave him what they wanted. Other than this and Gorillaz using an MSI picture as a reference, Jamie has nothing to do with MSI.
>>123755922jesus christ, Storm fell off.
