Worst Album Covers

Perhaps, but I quite like it.

It's Ken's favourite Megadeth album, that is.

It's a good album but it's nowhere even approaching Megadeth's best. How anyone could think it is for any reasons other than simple contrariness is completely mind-blowing to me.

For the worst album art ever, look at Waco Jesus - Filth or The Destruction Of Commerical Scum. But not at work, or where anyone you know can catch you doing it.

AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! My eyes!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes. Although it's perfect for what it intends to do.

Well, Ken likes anthemic stuff that's easy to sing along with, or catchy if you will, so I can see why he'd like that one best. I do think it's the best thing they've done post RIP. Agreed on the lameness of said cover though.

I like that Megadeth cover. Reminds me of Swift's A Modest Proposal.

I guess. I didn't make the connection...it could've been cool had they used something besides hanging up babies to dry >_>

Had to resurrect this. Google Demetra Sine Die, and look at the cover for their new album Council From Kaos. But not at work.

And now admit that you're about 35% more likely to check them out...

or maybe just google for some porn?

i associate boobie album covers with Cradle of Filth which makes me a lot less likely to check them out

I reckon a Dance Of Death type situation occurred, where some preliminary art somehow made it onto the cover.

The ultimate band of boobie album covers is Akercocke.

IMO the ultimate boobie album cover is Witchfinder Generals Death Penalty.

It looks unfinished, I wouldn't be surprised to see a sleaker version on the final product.

But then again...remember the Dance of Death album cover? Apparently that abomination Maiden used was a 'sketch version' the artist had no intention of using as the real thing but they decided to use it that way anyway.
