This also works for the "Album covers were the artist is unbearable smug" thread as well.

Is it the front? Is it the back? I don't know, no one else seems to, what is that weird thing? Is it a weirdy bloke? Is it on a horizon? This is not a teapot! Is it a plant? If Salvador Dali was an emo graphic designer would he design this? Plus the music inside is GRATE. I like it lots.

wait what happened to Sun Ra???

― brg30 (brg30), Monday, 20 January 2003 19:58 (twenty-three years ago)

I forgot about that Funkadelic cover... yipes. I used to be disturbed by the Uriah Heep "So Very 'Eavy, So Very 'Umble" cover, or that Zoogz Rift one with the pukey beard (I think it's Zoogz Rift - I could easily be wrong) but those are nothing next to what you just posted. I might have to go to sleep clutching my pillows over my head.

Look at that Sugarcubes rekkid again, the dude has two...um...members. (This isn't the reason I like it. I like it because its so bright, happy and childlike. The double member thing just adds just enough cognitive dissonance to make it a bit more thought provoking.)

OMG! That Sun Ra cover is AWESOME!
He looks so...dignified...like the Saturnian Invasion fleet is overhead, and he will soon become Planetary Overlord.

i wanted this to be fake but it wasn't
it has a song called "all shook up " that isn't the elvis song - this is a good album.no great songs but only a few bad songs - i paid $5 australian dollars.

this was my first picture disc and is better than "slippery when wet" which i thought was the best heavy metal album ever.
