Who the hell designs these things.

Oh, and Mystery To Me is listed as one of the worst CD covers ever, according to http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/featur.../index10.shtml I've always quite liked it though :confused:

Not so keen on "Heroes" though :rolleyes: That has to rank as a bad cover.

No accounting for taste, I guess.

Oh, that's BS. Mystery to Me cover is great.
Also? ElectricLarryland, Butthole Surfers - not one of the worst.

This is the funniest thing I have ever seen! At the same time...very disturbing.

Bare Trees is so bleakly beautiful. I get depressed just looking at it. :( The one I've never cared for is Tusk. :sorry:

I love the Tusk cover. It went against all that was expected of them. The bare trees cover is great, but i agree, it is very bleak :(

The best BN era cover would have to be TITN - i love arty covers :thumbsup:

Me neither. I think it's, to quote our dear departed Dissy, whoreanus.

They could have done something "different" and "not expected of them" and at the same time have it be an aesthetically pleasing album cover. The Tusk cover sucks.

Yeah, but it's pretty funny once you realize that it's Richard Dashut's foot is the one being attacked, after the amount of **** Mick and Lindsey went through with him! (and Ken Calliat.) :D

When I saw this thread it reminded me of something I'd seen awhile back. I hope this thread posts, http://rateyourmusic.com/list/Goregi...e_album_covers

I hope someone gets a laugh out of some of these!

I don't like the cover of Mystery To Me. But I think English Rose is even worse!!

And I do like Tusk, not big deal but like it. It makes you ask.. Why? (as BTM)

And Rumours is the coolest
