Yeah, I'm serious. And I'm not the only one. From wikipedia/general Black Sabbath knowledge:

Born Again is awful all around.

I think the title track and Disturbing the Priest are both good songs.
Digital Bitch is the worst song in the entire sabbath discography, so maybe that evens it out.

Great album, great cover. :-p

MicShazam

I kind of admire how you always seem so positive about all covers and all music :P

The Batlord

Obviously he'll dig this then.

Well, there's some stuff I don't like (I listed some covers I don't like earlier in the thread for example), but I like the vast majority of "professional" music at least a bit--"professional" being anything on a major label, anything with decent distribution, anything by folks who make at least part of their living with music, and I also don't think that covers designed/done by professionals are very often bad.

Of course I have preferences, though--I don't like everything the same amount, but I do love a crapload of stuff.

Anyway, I'll give you another cover I don't care for. It's not necessarily horrible design-wise, but it doesn't do anything for me, and given what the album is about--it's a concept album based on Edgar Allan Poe stories--it's very disappointing compared to what it could have been:

Man, there's not enough good will inside me for that sort of attitude. I dislike most things at least a bit :P

That cover you posted looks like the picture in the middle is stretched way out of its original aspect ration. It always looks really amateur when an artist does that.
