Post The Best/Worst Album Cover Art

always loved this cover

excellent!
 
There one of my favorites, even to this day. Voodoo U and Farstucker albums especially. But yeah...kinda a guilty pleasure. I don't try to introduce people to them, and they can be sorta erabarrassing with how x-rated they are. I'd definitely blush if I played that album loudly around someone that hadn't heard it.
 
LOL that album cover kills me. It looks like the music would be all peaceful and placid but once you put on the record its ****in dark. They probably fooled a bunch of naive people into giving them a shot
 
Cheers. I love Alex Greys work, Tool have good taste :D

I want to post two more:

Live - Throwing Copper GOOD
I love this cover, and maybe I'm a little biased seeing as this was the first proper album I ever owned, but who cares? I don't know who the artist is though? I'd really like to know, maybe I should do some research.

Coldplay - X&Y BAD
I like Coldplay, always have and always liked their covers but I just never saw the point of this? Maybe I just don't get it?

Madlib Medicine Show #8: Advanced Jazz by Otis Jackson Jr.

(from left to right: Eumir Deodato, Phil Ranelin, Steve Kuhn, Ornette Coleman, Eric Dolphy, Sun Ra, Charles Mingus (seated), John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Malik Flavors, Herbie Hancock, Pharoah Sanders.)
 
Uggh! I want to post some pictures in this thread so bad, but can't post links yet.

I've always had a soft spot for Beck's Mellow Gold album cover. I'm sure you all know what it looks like, so the lack of a link here shouldn't be too much of a bother :p
 
I done a thread very similar to this a week ago and it got removed because there is meant to be already countless threaRAB like this, or so I was told. Now this gets to stay?

...okay rant over, I'll participate and stop complaining.

Tool - Lateralus GOOD
The see-thru booklet dissects the body of this man, it's very cool. Because it is Tool the art goes hand and hand with the music too.

My Chemical Romance - I Brought You My Bullets You Brought Me Your Love BAD
Just always hated this cluttered mess of an album cover, right down to the overly long title.
