One of the results from googling "jew porn"

Some people, when bothered to make the assumption, think I'm Jewish. As it happens, I'm one-eighth Jew, but certain persons think that fraction is much higher. That my beard is currently approaching Hasidic levels plays a part, I guess. What does that have to do with this thread? I don't know. Fuck you.

The W was solid, but no one ever talks about it.

I like this one:

GENTLE GIANT!

Are Mastodon getting radio airplay these days? They're on a major label now and the vocals are less abrasive than they were circa Remission.

I know that's what they're going for, but it was done really poorly. No borders at all would've gotten the point across far more effectively, I think.

I'm man enough to admit I really like, without shame, the cover of Tarkus.

The Dean stuff is nice, I suppose, but I just can't stand that sort of thing. Speaking of Dean/Yes, Close to the Edge is comparatively tame. If it weren't for the font used in the band's name and album's title, I never would've thought it was him.

Maybe they just have bad taste. We're talking favorites, after all. Anyway, connzilla redeemed himself with Fantastic.

Roger Dean. Those covers had a distinctive look, but I hate that fantasy/sci-fi stuff, so whatever. To be fair to EL&P, there's this: but they brought in a ringer for that one.

Granted, I'm not well-versed in the genre, but finding a legit good prog album cover is tough. King Crimson, for instance, doesn't have any that are better than just okay and a few that are outright awful. The cover for In the Court... is famous, but I think the painting itself is garish.

I like the Gravediggaz one. And I like the concept for the cover of Straight Outta Compton, but the execution is weak. The black borders are unneccesary and the picture itself looks like it was shot with a cheap disposable camera.

I think he meant the font for BIG BEAR. It's dripping honey. No, I noticed that previously. The wine glasses contain honey.

Whoa, those are fairly big words for you, Dave. What gives He misspelled one of them, so.

The New Danger was one of the biggest disappointments of recent years. I tried to convince myself during the first thirty minutes of its eight hour running time that not only was it good, but that it would get even better.

The guy who started this thread has pretty abysmal taste in rap album covers.

Striking photograph, certainly, but I'll be honest: it wasn't until months after this came out that I realized the woman on the right wasn't really happy.

Well, I didn't very much like Feels; you can just switch Edwin's thoughts on that one vs. Sung Tongs to get my opinion.

I didn't realize that it's honey in the wine glasses until now. Wow.

Well, since you guys are taking this seriously, I'll say that the only better-than-average ones posted in this thread are Liquid Swords and the ODB. Outkast's second, third and fourth albums had good covers: (Note I am not using the alternate, psychedelic cover with the nude woman) edit: Furthermore, Stankonia's cover proves to be a rare exception to the fact I usually dislike album covers featuring members of the band.
