[Emperor Fabulous]

Yeah, I know I wheel this one out every year or so, but maybe the new blood haven't seen it... still makes me laugh...

I would post some of my favourite rubbish album covers, but I'd get banned.

First "Worst Album Covers" list I've seen that didn't include Virgin Killer and Lovedrive by the Scorpions. This former of which I don't think is controversial - I think people being offended by it is more worrying. Naughty bits are covered up and so it's just a young human being without clothes... There's an important difference I think between porn and nudity... the second album cover is a little weird but I quite like it.

As a bit of a Dexys obsessive, I am resigned that one day I think I'm going to have to own 'My Beauty.'

'All My Friends Are Dead' is generally my favourite one of these, but I also love 'Satan Is Real' (which isn't here!) and 'Ken, by Request Only'.

I thought 'Julie's Sixteenth Birthday' was the creepiest, but 'My Pussy Belongs To Daddy,' naked tits and all, may be the new winner.

[Viz]

Yes, my pussy belongs to daddy is so incredibly strange and awful-sounding it's definitely a contender.

[reverend]

Satan is Real is a very highly regarded album. I know black and death metal fans that love it.

I hadn't seen those before, although we had a recent(ish) thread on the Handsome Beasts in which that one got pulled up and I did own the WASP one.
