AffableMartyr
08.15.24 | 2 is truly awful |
FowlKrietzsche
08.15.24 | 24 just doesn't hit right without the spread anus |
cylinder
08.15.24 | i always kinda dug 7 and 15, agreed on the rest for sure tho |
FowlKrietzsche
08.15.24 | Yeah 7 may actually be the coolest album cover I've ever seen ngl |
Demon of the Fall
08.15.24 | tempted to rank but that’s tough
let me just say 18 looks half-decent in the context of the list! |
AffableMartyr
08.15.24 | 7 looks like a animorphs book cover |
WretchedCacophony
08.15.24 | 12 isn't even bad
Ulcerate - Cutting the Throat of God
Rise Against - The Sufferer and the witness
Have Heart - songs to scream at the sun
half of the Pig Destroyer discography
opeth - heritage. probably more lame than ugly but it's not nice to look at |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | @Demon It definitely does. I just grew up listening to that album and always found the cover repulsive. Probably more of a personal one. |
kkarron
08.15.24 | Poison Idea - Ian MacKaye (the uncensored one) |
bighubbabuddha
08.15.24 | Kim K's ass ain't ugly bro |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | Context matters tho. I feel like Poison Idea could've gotten a better angle. |
anode
08.15.24 | you picked the wrong pd album cover, that ones cool af |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | black flag - what the |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | @anode honestly I think prowler and explosions are both ugly, but between those two it's kind of a toss-up |
Brabiz
08.15.24 | 35 is insane. Beautiful artwork. Everything else I agree with. Which is a shame because I think artwork is such an important part of an album, and can even detract a bit from the overall experience. |
Brabiz
08.15.24 | 34 is also good |
anode
08.15.24 | I mean terrifyer is the obvious choice |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | No way bro! Always liked those big juicy tits with the puffy strawberry nipples |
Egarran
08.15.24 | It will be a good day when 1 disappears from the frontpage. |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | amnesia scanner - tearless |
kildare
08.15.24 | Aesthetic Perfection - All Beauty Destroyed
I think he was going for a creepy "Mouth of Sauron dripping with orc blood," but it's probably just Hershey's chocolate sauce |
JayEnder
08.15.24 | At the Gates - Terminal Spirit Disease has the most hideous color scheme ever.
Also 34 doesn't belong here. Absolutely iconic artwork for an iconic album |
vult
08.15.24 | Green Day - Father of All Motherfuckers
Miley Cyrus - Miley and Her Dead Petz |
Dreamflight
08.15.24 | 35 is great wtf? |
kildare
08.15.24 | Man, Rowhaus, you did spot some of the ugliest covers I've ever seen. 2, 22, 25, sheesh. It's like Human-Centipede shit |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | @Jay yeah I feel like the whole point of PD is to be "ugly" anyway lol |
NexCeleris
08.15.24 | Pissgrave - Suicide Euphoria |
onionbubs
08.15.24 | 33 rules what the fuck |
Christbait
08.15.24 | Weathered's cover has always made me chuckle. Love the album to death but god damn that album cover and the music video for Bullets were a collection of bad choices.
|
Spec
08.15.24 | Iron Maiden - Dance of Death is the worst cover ever. |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | it's fun looking around for these. reel big fish leaves you with plenty of options |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | logic - confessions of a dangerous mind |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | God this list is fucking hideous. Keep the recs coming guys I'm loving this lmao |
Spec
08.15.24 | I’m cool with Cheer Up because it looks like shit on purpose. |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | @Spec yeah I just updated to Everything Sucks lol |
Spec
08.15.24 | Say Anything - I Don’t Think It Is is pretty terrible too. It doesn’t get a pass because the content is awful too. |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | shpongle - museum of consciousness |
kildare
08.15.24 | There's a cover of a metal album somewhere on Sput that depicts a guy sodomizing a pig that definitely belongs here. As I recall it has "filth" somewhere in the band or album name.
I tried both Google and Edge's Copilot and no banana. I'm giving up and putting it here in case it jogs someone's memory, or in case someone knows how to prompt searches better than me |
mkmusic1995
08.15.24 | Weathered by Creed is beautiful |
KjSwantko
08.15.24 | Pantera Metal Magic comes to mind |
samwise2000
08.15.24 | houses of the holy? worst covers?? girl.... |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | oh speaking of animal sodomy, nofx - heavy petting zoo |
vult
08.15.24 | The Used - Lies for the Liars |
vult
08.15.24 | Any AJR album ever |
Spec
08.15.24 | Beartooth - Aggressive too for the cringe factor.
This is a fun list. Excellent work lol. |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | holy shit Spec your rec just jogged my memory for another stinker |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | patterns here: nudity, split/multiple faces of any kind, slimy/glittery mouths
list is grotesque and i love it |
random
08.15.24 | New Found Glory-Catalyst |
TheManMachine
08.15.24 | the rolling stones- undercover
guns n roses - the spaghetti incident |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | List scorches my eyes. Excellent work so far gents! |
budgie
08.15.24 | 56 is sick u goblins |
JayEnder
08.15.24 | Remove the ones WretchedCacophony recommended and this is a banger list. |
BallsToTheWall
08.15.24 | 22 is amazing. |
mouldypigeon
08.15.24 | Utopia might be bad but it has a cute bird fetus nestled in Bjork's neck and you just know there was another version of it floated which included Bjork in that strap-on so we got off lightly
Ben Harper's Fight For Your Mind looks like someone's first Fiverr gig |
JoyfulPlatypus
08.15.24 | You know what, I'm just gonna say it
The cover for 'Brat' is awful and an ugly shade of green. |
vult
08.15.24 | Chocolate Starfish and Hot Dog Flavored Water is kinda a nasty art |
JayEnder
08.15.24 | I wanna say Alexisonfire - Otherness but it's a weird one. One minute I hate it, the next I love it and think it fits the album perfectly. |
Scoot
08.15.24 | 49 makes me physically angry |
JayEnder
08.15.24 | Born of Osiris - Angel or Alien
The Human Abstract - Digital Veil
Veil of Maya - [id]
All That Remains - Overcome
Shadows Fall - Threads of Life |
onionbubs
08.15.24 | id is like one of the only good vom covers lol. matriarch or false idol are both way worse |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | I actually kinda like the Threads of Life cover lol |
ProphetNimd
08.15.24 | Most of these I agree with but Threads of Life is cool, the fuck.
I'd say the new Aborted album cover is up there for me. |
DocSportello
08.15.24 | warms my heart NOT to see lulu here |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | didn't realize how much I dislike conjoined faces in artwork until I put this together lmao |
Ladron93
08.15.24 | Charli XCX's BRAT cover is definitely awful, the songs are kinda fun.
See if these three albums are degenerate or ugly:
The Birthday Party - Junkyard
Type O Negative - Slow, Deep and Hard
and
Patriarchy - The Unself |
FearThyEvil
08.15.24 | 21 and 34 covers really do fit the music though funnily enough. 90 is pretty cool but the rest of them I definitely agree with. Holy lot of crap in here lol |
Rowhaus
08.15.24 | Think I'm gonna have to make a part 2 for this! This was way more fun than I expected and I feel like there's a lot more garbage out there. |
budgie
08.15.24 | remove 56 or ill sneak into ur room at night and steal ur toenails |
MillionDead
08.15.24 | Budgie, why are you defending this furry-wrestler ass art?? Also, 34 doesn’t belong here at all. Shit’s iconic. |
JayEnder
08.16.24 | Threads of Life cover would be cool if it didn't look like he was dying in his own fart cloud |
Rowhaus
08.16.24 | This filled up fast! Might need to do a part two next week if anyone wants to rec anything |
arthropod
08.16.24 | Disturbing. |
arthropod
08.16.24 | I'd go with "For Your Entertainment" by Adam Lambert. Not even a match for the previous recs, but looks like shit anyway. That art alone is enough to prevent me from getting a copy.
Maybe also "Extra Pan" by Houk, uncomparably better but still off. |
Rowhaus
08.16.24 | Great recs! I'll add those to part 2 |
anode
08.16.24 | lmao 23, poor guy |
Rowhaus
08.16.24 | Decided to just say fuck it and put the new list up today. Feel free to drop recs in either thread. Stay ugly m/ |
Sharenge
08.16.24 | rude |
