Great band but their album covers are awful

>>63694310
>>63694292
You keep posting this, but it's actually not bad cover art, just your opinion
>>63694162
I like it
2012 - 2013 were pretty fucking garbo foor major album release covers
this, yeah yeah yeahs,shaking the habitual, mbv were all pretty bad
>>63694330
>you keep posting this
multiple people keep posting this because it's an awful cover
>>63694329
>>63694330
It's awful
>>63693863
>>63694162
These are pretty good covers.
>>63693851
All the covers from that trilogy were dog shit.
>>63694369
>>63694162
thats subjective. technically, this is nicely composed.
>>63694394
>>63694292
I hate it and love it at the same time.

pleb taste
i'd've believed you if you posted the proto-chz cover where it was unpolished
2000's in a nutshell
>>63694352
Shaking the Habitual actually worked well. Their s/t and Deep Cuts album covers are shit though.

>that edgy font for Communic
Has there ever been good album art with a font like that?
Can we agree metal albums have by far the worst cover art on average?
There are a few nice ones but usually it's either bad fantasy art, 2edgy4me or repressed homoeroticism. Not to mention the unreadable bandnames.
>>63694709
>>63693836
What makes this extra bad is the fact that the band members are in their 50s.
>>63694766
I like these

>Can we agree metal albums have by far the worst cover art on average?
I dunno, hip hop is full of shit like this (mostly unironically).
>>63694794
OH GOD WHY
>>63694852
the objective worst
>>63694330
>it's actually not bad cover art, just your opinion
oh, the irony.
>>63694875
>>63694794
I suppose you could call this low hanging fruit but...dear lord...
Do I even have to say anything

And some djent

>just your opinion
no shit
>>63694863
>>63693863
these are pretty good
>>63694860
Hip-hop is second worst, but the proportion of albums with covers this bad is still less than 50%. With metal it's easily over 90%.
Metal has a problem with aesthetics in general; the fashion, album covers, music videos, hairstyles, posters, everything all looks incredibly goofy.
>>63693863
I actually kind of like this one. It's so 90's I can't help but love it a little.
>>63694988
>>63694988
>>63694968
Can you stop shitting up the thread now? Most of these are pretentious and bad but not even remotely interesting or noteworthy. And you've posted like 101029340123019231 of them already, don't you think we get the point?
Bad album. Bad art.
>>63695004
You don't listen to enough underground shit. If you find some dude selling mixtapes out of his trunk there's a 100% chance it looks like that. With metal it mainly depends on the genre. Progressive metal is the worst.
>>63695033
Yeah I was about to stop
>>63695049
Yea, I do like the color scheme on the "Rolling Stones" text though.
>>63694508
This is the funniest shit I've seen all day.
>>63694860
Behold the greatest album cover of all time.
>>63694266
spooky 2bh
banana
>>63694292
I think it's intentionally bad.
>>63693870
Apparently the original CGI illustrator for this was pissed as because they put it out unfinished.
>>63694794
How do people like this even get signed to record labels? How do they even live with themselves knowing how shit their music is?
>>63693863
this one is amazing what the fuck
it's the epitome of 90's
this one is disgusting
also the band's worst album
>>63693870
This is a mastahpiece.
>>63695184
Just because it's simple doesn't mean it's bad plebe
>>63694452
>>63694566
God that's bad.
>So many prog rock/prog metal album covers.
Is modern prog the most tasteless genre ever?
>>63698246
>Album cover is the sole determiner of musical talent
Alrighty.
>>63698246
It is.
>not knowing how to sound good
>"so lets create something complex!"
>>63693917
Isn't that the Warboys logo from Mad Max?
>>63697237
Simple
They create their own record label.
>>63698594

jesus, what is with this dork?
>>63698664
>>63698732
>>63698756
>>63698783
i know it's intentionally bad but those color choices actually make it kinda hurt to look at for me
Fine album, but holy fuck is this irritating to look at this i mean who would release this
great album tho
>>63693870
lol thats so awful
>>63693950

Sia
This album is pretty good. Solid 3.67 rating on RYM
>>63695184
it says bowie with the stars
>>63699053
magenta and green are the best colours
>>63693917
the Brazilian artwork from the MTV contest is fucking worse
great album though
>>63699769
i cannot fathom how this could ever be released by a major artist at any point in time no matter how naive
>>63699781
he's just too meta and postmodern for you to understand anon
Later Deep Purple album artworks are pretty bad

redondos are fucking shit
dead moura all the way
>>63694927
I always wondered what the fuck was going through Frankie's head when he dropped that shit into the market
>>63699866
honestly i thought that album cover was cute
>>63699477
but this is good
>>63699053
This is one of the few albums that legitimately hurts my eyes
>>63698783
That's the only good one out of the ones you posted
>Look up this goatee wearing fuck
>Dream Theater
what a surprise.
Good album though
>>63694927
i saw that at a thrift store once

Dude looks uncle as fuck.
He's also the worst member of Dream Theater.
>>63694852
This with no text would be good actually
>>63694508
I am anticipating this being the next hot meme album. Seriously wtf is this shit?
>>63698910
I have this. One of my favorites of theirs
>>63699927
what the fuck? this one is pretty cool, I love it

>Worst Album Covers

?
>>63699744
first run sabbath = bad cover GOAT
>>63699197
that ones kinda stupid, but at least it looks pretty good
>>63698910
Probably one of the better three 6 mafia album covers, unfortunately
>>63700857
that's a great cover, it's actually one of their more iconic ones, better than Paranoid or Sabbath Bloody Sabbath.
>>63693870
this always made me cringe
Seriously want to slap the person who thought of this album art, but they'd probably like it.
>>63699611
OH my GOD
>>63693836
This album (and cover) is JUST: the album
