WTF: Batman For Mature Audiences Only

February 7, 2010 WTF? No Comments

WTF Batman o Vamos a Gozar album cover

This bad album cover is brain-meltingly perverse in all the right ways. There’s no real commentary on this one, simply because…well, just LOOK at this! It’s a masterpiece of surrealism, OR it’s the dumbest piece of art designed to sell products ever.

The longer I stare at this, the funnier and more incomprehensible it gets. This is the El Topo of album covers.

Oh, you wanted MORE commentary?

If I live to be 100, I hope that one day I can achieve the dizzying heights of pure WTF’edness that this album conveys. It doesn’t matter if the record itself is bad or good. It doesn’t matter what music it is, or even if there’s any music on it at ALL.

It could be 40 minutes of airplane noise mixed with the grunts of a man trying to extract pieces of an erector set impaled in his rib cage using a pair of rusty knitting needles and a trained ferret. I don’t care.

I need to own this.

WTF Album Covers Tsjuder Demonic Possession

April 13, 2011

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not at all a fan of black metal, so maybe it’s completely unfair to poke fun at the Tsjuder album cover for Demonic Possession. After all, if you’re not a fan of this kind of music, it just seems a bit silly. The “ooh scary” [...]

WTF Album Covers: Leona Anderson Music To Suffer By

April 12, 2011

I stumbled on this image of the album cover for Leona Anderson’s Music To Suffer By on The Magic Whistle. WTF is going on in this picture? This one’s suitable for framing–at least in MY house where bad album art has a special place of love and reverence.
There’s nothing quite like the joys of [...]

WTF Album Covers: Top Dog Slam Dunk’n Hoes

April 9, 2011

I was browsing the design site Creative Meat when lo and behold, what do I find but a collection of top WTF moments of album cover design genius. My favorite wrong-headed cover (and in this case just plain misogynistic to boot) has to be courtesy of a gent calling himself Top Dog. Just look at [...]

WTF Album Covers: Coup Party Music

April 5, 2011

Staggeringly poor taste? Misguided attempt at controversy? Or bad timing? According to several sources, this album cover for Party Music by Coup was accomplished before September 11, but that didn’t stop the FBI from taking a look. Coup were cleared of any perceived wrongdoing, but the mere existence of this imagery is enough to send [...]

March 21, 2011

We were so busy last week with the inauguration of our new digital single download offerings that we haven’t posted a single bad album cover in quite some time. But rest assured, now that the kickoff of the digital downloads has started we are back on the prowl for the worst album covers ever.
For example…
