Bad Album Cover Thread - There's been a lot of those covers?

[Alex Hogendorp]

Eventually you'll find an album cover that is very absurd that it's amazing or one that makes your eyes bleed. In any ways. I'll start this off with my favorite ones.

 

[Lord of the Large Pants]

Solid albums, completely inexplicable covers.

 

[last94nite]

The Dawn of the Black Hearts by Mayhem.

 

[Asian tech support]

Dance of Death is cheating.


Neither of these are particularly offensive imo, I just remember them being dumb.

Here are some many examples of bad album covers.

and too many other examples.

 

[SirCliveSinclairdabbing]

Blood and spunk, the crapfest that was mid 90's metallica.

[The Heartthrob]

I love me some "dude weed" art just as much as I like me some "dude weed" music

In my opinion, the most problematic album covers are the unironic hypersexualized ones. (Ironic ones from those such as Aphex Twin and Wasnatch are understandable but have been debatably shitty). However, ppcocaine and Ice Spice are quite big offenders on this. I don't even feel like posting them considering their loli like appearance. This isn't limited to modern music. A lot of oldies and obscure music also had the same issue.

Spoiler: Examples

Also this album cover sums up Christmas music as a whole.

Christian music are also unfortunate to have uncanny covers too.

Also, Rappers tend to make some of the best bad album covers.

Also, this one. The music is as creepy as the album cover itself. If not one of the most uncanny songs I ever heard.

Album covers designed as protest pictures are debatable too depending on your point of view. A cover like this would have a plethora of ranging views.

Another polarizing album cover.

From the band Rotgut, led by Lolcow Anthony Cumia

The Gayest album cover of all time.

I don't know who told ex-Disney mental case Demi Lovato that an image of her hogtied on a dirty mattress was a good album cover, but it's something. Though knowing that she was passed around by her handlers at Disney, and is still likely being used by whoever her record label is, it makes sense. I will admit that Happy Ending, Freak and 4 Ever 4 Me are songs I enjoyed. Though the album was released 20 years too late. Could've been a hit during the late 90s/early 00s pop-punk/grunge era.

It's a petting zoo all right, just not the family-friendly kind.

And here's the 12" vinyl cover.

Debatable for many people but if you hate MS paint, this is definitely in the realm. Breakcore Albums are full of weird and nasty shit. With songs that have a massive range in quality (mostly shitty edge lord music)

Also Debatable.

No doubt this AC is ugly.

Also Debatable.

Nah, I don't think any of these are debatable. Just objectively bad.
