WTF Album Covers: Satan Has Been Paralyzed

..and REALLY ought to consider a lawsuit.

Seriously, is this guy a contestant on The Price Is Right? Born-again Christian preachers clearly know nothing about how to design album covers. But then again, neither do their polar opposites:

Somebody PLEASE call the record company version of Doctor Kervorkian. It’s time for Van Halen to die as a musical entity. Please.

WTF Album Covers: The Last of 2010

We wrap up the 2010 WTF Album Cover collection with a cover so mind-rippingly ridiculous that I can’t actually think of anything to say that would be funnier than the cover itself. Behold:

WTF Album Covers: Henri Salvador

What is it about the French and the goofy faces on their album covers? A great deal of the bad album art I’ve seen this year has some kind of face-pulling on the cover. This one I truly don’t get, but they would probably say that’s because I’m just a stupid cowboy. We can thank Reagan for that stereotype, no doubt.

The blue face paint and robot outfit (or is that a radiation suit?) are completely bewildering. Maybe this is some kind of retro/future Braveheart thing.
