Dude the Stratovarius cover is pretty good the rest I agree with.


I hate how euro-metal bands seem to insist on having completely souless CGI covers, particularly Nuclear Blast bands. At least some of the other covers had you know, a guy drawing them.


Hear hear. Fuck off nowadays cover art.

Good God, I thought that argument was dead a long long time ago. Don't ressurect it, please, the last thing we need is more drama.

Anyways, I always thought that this cover was hilariously bad:

Yeah, the album was supposed to be titled War Pigs, which would have made the cover make sense. It would stil suck, mind, but it would make sense. The record company pussied out and changed the name of the album to Paranoid without even telling the band.

It appears to be a midget armed with the best sword and shield Toys 'R Us had to offer.

No two ways around it, that cover fucking blows. However it's not as bad as this:

I think this is the worst album cover of all time. The first time I saw it, I cracked up for about an hour.
