I like this album but the cover is just terrible. Figured I'd start a thread to collect awful cover art for albums & singles.

Hey, maybe the guys in Orleans weren't naked. Maybe they were wearing towels like Steam wore on the cover of their 1969 self-titled debut album.

Here is someone who should have worn a towel, preferably one large enough to cover his entire body:.

Every album cover by the death metal band Cannibal Corpse are so disgusting, I won't post any here. But if you want to lose your lunch, just do an image search for 'Cannibal Corpse album covers'. /puke

Chicks with dicks....

Here is the censored art for the 7" single (the album is uncensored - if you want to see it, click here then click the image at top left).

It's actually Sigue Sigue Sputnik (best known for "Love Missile F1-11" featured in Ferris Bueller's Day Off) using a pseudonym.

Not sure if anyone will agree, but I think the album art for Van Halen Diver Down is awful. I thought it was when I was 12 years old, and still feel the same way.

Isn't that the flag you put on the water when you have a "diver down"? It would seem appropriate for the title. Perhaps the issue you have is more with the album title?


Did they use the international flag for their non North America release?
