    Now I know you can get books on this subject, but they always seem to be these bizarre albums from the 50s or 70s. What I'm talking about is album covers from the last couple of years / decade. Bad ones. Just for fun. Post pictures please.

    A terrible cover for a terrible album. Why oh why? It would've been a bad magazine cover, never mind an album.

    It DOES look like a Guiness book of Records!

    Come on, JK; we all know how rich you are. Why pretend to be homeless?

    At least Pearl Jam put an avocado on an other-wise boring cover.

    Hard Fi, on the other hand, ''No Cover Art''- sheer laziness!

    I will never comprehend the reasoning behind the choice of vegetable.

    "Yeah, it's ok, bit boring though..."
    "How about we throw in a... an avcado?"
    "Genius."

    Nah...I haven't a clue what it means. But you must've half expected someone to say it ;)

    This is by far the worst album cover I've seen in recent years. Just looking at it makes me sick
