A modern example courtesy of a Ned retweet:
Sorry, dude, but this was a very bad idea and it is going to rebound on you in a really ugly way. (Especially since your album is coming out in November.)

I enjoy seeing these old albums (and I’m grateful they’re posted here); but sometimes I get the sense from these threads that this is ILM’s platonic ideal of an album cover & title:https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/ae/Xx_album_cover.svg/1280px-Xx_album_cover.svg.png

...it's a Canadian release. Is it the selection bias of my ignorance or might Canada have produced a higher proportion of these sorts records?
― saddest kamancheh (bendy), Friday, 24 August 2018 16:20 (five years ago) link
Simple explanation is that Canada is the only country where the creation of these sorts of albums were subsidised by the government.
