Don't get me wrong, Mew is one of my favorite bands out there. But their new album has a cover that looks like it was done on Paint. The whole title is: No More Stories Are told today I'm sorry They washed away No more stories The world is grey I'm tired Let's wash away Of course, continuing the shitty albums trend is their last album cover: They need to stop hiring hippies to do their covers, and just take a picture of the Copenhagen skyline or something.

I'll not link to it or provide an image, but I would think that the cover for "Virgin Killer" by Scorpions would definitely be on this list, or at the very least, be a highly questionable cover.

Meh. To be fair, it wasn't their idea to have that as the album art. It was part of a series of images that some photographer did for an art book, and the record execs at their UK label made the decision to use it. Capitol Records was horrified when they saw it, and so ultimately substituted an image of the band sitting around a packed steamer trunk.

Meh. I kind of like it. It doesn't fit the Beatles at all, but meh. I'm shocked that Type O Negative hasn't satirized that already, considering all their Beatles allusions.

I kind of like it. It doesn't fit the Beatles at all, but meh. That was actually the point; it was part of a series of images the Beatles made to protest the "wholesome" publicity-friendly photos that their label kept making them do. Capitol, for reasons unknown, slapped it on an album.

Didn't someone put out an album cover that showed a naked 11yo with cracked glass over her pubis?
