The Crap Album Cover World Cup (country, vinyl, albums, hendrix)

**Urban Hatemonger** · 10-19-2007, 09:37 AM

Let's find out what the crappest album cover in the world is.

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 .......

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

OMGZZZ. I am a little bit frightened.

I think my reasons for choosing this one will be obvious.

I hate this one because that picture has been used a million times and they couldn't use a bigger cliché if they tried. 0/10 for effort there.

Those hideous tights alone merit an award. shame because it's the last truly great Ozzy era Sabbath album.

Crap album too.

I have the strangest feeling that Xiu Xiu is not a music artist...

So you're saying that it's a photo of synapse as a baby, taken with the lost WW2 Japanese soldier, who raised him in the wild jungles of Borneo?

Which I'd be inclined to believe.

The 'Liars' one is invalid too. It's an EP.

And yet the back cover manages to be even worse
