Worst/Best Album Covers

After seeing the cover for Carl Barats solo album and how appalingly awful it was I thought this might be a fun thread:
 
So heres some of my worst
 
 
 

 

 

 
And one that I actually like
 

 
Note that this is just the artwork you are judging not the album itself, so get posting your own

Don't know why I like it, but I do.

Doubt many will have heard of this guy. He's a manx guitarist but is big in America on the blues circuit now. This album cover of his is sh*t.

Davy Knowles is frickin' AWESOME! I saw him and BDS in Philadelphia and again in Manchester. He's my boy crush, i got the album signed and my picture taken with him *gush.*

But yeah, crap album art ha.

I hate the Papa Roach - Infest cover. It make's my skin crawl so i shall not post a pic lol.

I've met him three times and we had really good chats about blues music. Used to watch him all the time over here at football clubs and town halls etc, back when it was the proper proper original BDS. Even got my name on the VERY first album that BDS ever did. I have his old Cort electric guitar at home aswell, belongs to my brother. 
Haha still remember this one time I watched them whilst swimming in the sea when they were playing on the promenade haha!!

Although Toms little finger on his left hand does make it infinitely better than Barats'.

That's incredible.

So what are your least favourite covers then RG?

Good Idea


Bad Idea

LOLmel
When Rooney scored that penalty I had to check that I wasn't shagging Katy Perry.

I hope that's for worst.

Banned cover. One of the most collectible LP's in the world.

It's great, pretty trippy.
 

It's crap haha. Also, I hate the band.

Animal Collective are great. That album isn't as good as their early stuff though.

Also Sleep Holy Mountain 

Love this.

I saw Hank 3 in London last September, one of the best gigs I've ever been too
 
Did like an hour or so of his more traditional country stuff, half an hour of his hellbilly stuff then about 20 minutes of Assjack at the end

Awesome, I've never seen him. Would love to though
