La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

alright. Let's nominate them (not the kitchest but the ugliest)

Let me nominate 2 of them

the first one is the cover of an album i love which makes it even more embarrassing



You're not gonna like the second one



Please try to provide a link, even an undirect one, if you can't post an image

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

There are few things more disturbing than tinned spaghetti...



Ugly for being so pompous...

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

(I also love Cosmo's Factory...)
Anyway, I'm not a fan of Prince's chest hair...
%%bbCodeItem_1%%

And for that matter, I don't want to see John and Yoko's hair either...
%%bbCodeItem_2%%

Sorry if I've disturbed anyone...

SPEAKING OF HAIR





I don't find the Prince cover ugly, narcissic yes but not ugly.


Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

It doesn't really get any better, or worse, than this:

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

@ Stephan

OMG where did you find that one ?

@BillAdama : the Lady Gaga cover is so ridiculous that I had totally erased it from my memory

@DanM : oversized ego can cause terrible cover arts too

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Stumbled upon it through RYM, it has some of the most favorited reviews on the site. I love how completely surreal the whole thing is.

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

This isn't necessarily ugly, but it's hysterical:



As for ugly, I can't believe one of my favorite artists had the nerve to release this monstrosity on my birthday (April 29). The music is even worse:

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Christian music. The covers are ugly, but they probably match the music.





Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

The Waco Jesus cover is unavailable (too horrible I suppose, I don't want to see it anyway)

Let's set a rule : no offensive material, just unintentionally ugly covers

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Unavailable? Do you have different security settings or what?

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

I couldn't see it and I'm glad I couldn't.
Let's not publish any offensive material, that was not my intention

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

OK, I deleted the Waco Jesus link. If you're not interested Nicolas, then who would?

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

I know, you said ugly not kitsch but I could not resist







Keeping good taste is the most important thing :









And well, seems like Mr Muthafuckin eXquire is aiming for the title of dumb/fun/awful mixtape covers king



Lots of death/black metal covers are horrible, I remember one with an eviscerated cow, very badly drawn... no idea of the name of the album or the band though (I think it was pretty close to this theme of cows and guts...)

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Gotta love this one:


Just ugly:

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

WHAT ABOUT THESE ONES?



Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Some ugly covers from RYM



















Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time



And we are not even talking about the lead single

nor its cover




and there are these:





Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time






















why?

because Peg Leg Lemon Parker asked me to...

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

and the Dr. Hon bonus:

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

nj





















why?

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

and i don't get those:







what was the reason for making them, nj?

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

^ Some of my colleagues just looked at me in a funny/concerned way for laughing out loud at my computer screen, so thanks for brightening up an uneventful day in the office, nj.

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Peg Leg Lemon Parker likes this

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Brown Money Parker likes it too (yes, it seems that this is my blues name).
Great cover arts, nj!! I admit I was slightly afraid, I saw the post at my work but again I could not see the pictures (probably they put some kind of filter). And it included one dedicated to me!! So I came home quite terrified (honestly I didn't know what I was going to find) and then I saw quite relieved these clever parodies of the historical cover arts. Well done, nj, despite you were not directly responsible for the extra dose of suspense in my case.

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

no Hon You're Brown Money McGee

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

Well, I got no middle initial (Honorio is unusual enough as a name) but in Spain we got two surnames, one coming from the father (Barranco in my case) and the second coming from the mother (González in my case). So I used my initials HBG but in fact I should have used HB only so my real blues name is Brown McGhee

Re: La Galerie des horreurs : Ugliest art covers of all time

thanks a lot, Mr. Dan, Mr. Parker and Mr. Brown.

yours truly,
Sleepy Money Bradley
