ITT: Great albums with awful cover art
>>63946896
I like this one...
>>63946919
trick cover btw
thats actually supposed ot be the back cover and then when the clear slip case is placed over it, all the song titles appear clearly at the top and all these alien trees appear in the background
>>63946919
i like this cover
All of Orbital's covers are ugly 2bh but I think this is the worst.
I guess the cover art fits the music, but it reminds me of something you would see on an edgy Tapout shirt or something.

wtf this is literally someone's pseudocode for some sort of program, not even in english (God's language)
Also Albur! is terrible. It's like an avant-teen listened to some Supersilent and some Yoshihide Otomo, then tried to make le epic experimental album

>clash
>great
u working class bruv?
disgusting

I have to agree with you there, anon.
Fantastic house albums, though, most of them.
the jim o rourke one with the naked chinese baby man
i put off listening to it for years because of it
>>63946919
why does it look like a pussy coming out of her purple goo?
>>63947968
because thats literally what it is
she's supposed to be an alien on an alien planet which becomes even more apparent when the included clear slip case is reversed from the original packaging
>>63947738
It's mapping out a math subject (relation between theorems) in some spic language and u can tell bcuz of the notation and term "Jordan curve theorem" prolly complex analysis imo.
>>63947968
it represents a wound, her heart was broken
>>63948005
I'm mainly annoyed that the Albur dude thought it would make his album deeper or whatever by having a (probably unrelated) set of theorems as his album cover
The theory behind all those theorems is probably too complex for me to ever understand but that's not a reason to make it a damn album cover
>>63948031
All that matters is
Who is open-chested
And who has coagulated
Who can share and
Who has shot down the chances?
Show me emotional respect, oh respect, oh respect
And I have emotional needs, oh needs, oh ooh
I wish to synchronize our feelings, our feelings, oh ooh
epic

I posted these and only now realized that this isn't ''Great album cover art'' thread. Kill me.
>>63948571
Dude the cover is as epic as the music
>>63950885
Looks really dated and empty imo
all teenage fanclub albums have terrible artwork. like, really really bad. i'm convinced this is why they haven't been canonised in the same way their contemporaries (belle&sebastian etc) have
fuck this artwork
>>63951339
I believe you.
I just haven't slept a night. We tend to be stupid once in a while.
no one on /mu/ will ever listen to his because of the album cover. I've tried to give you people this fucking masterpiece but you are all too FUCKING pretentious to listen to it.
