PLAGIARISM! Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Dear God that is so stupid. If I thought Muse had a sense of humour, I'd think this was a pretty funny dig at Pink Floyd. Unfortunately I know that they take themselves seriously. Yikes.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Muse have quite a devoted cult following in this country. I guess they're a substitute for people who wish Radiohead would stop fucking around with laptops. Whatever the reason, they suck. As for this shittiest recent album cover thread:
luke-o Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Rob zombie looking like an old man is not cool. this is rob fuckin zombie
Henry Spencer Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 The Rob Zombie cover on the bottom looks infinitely stupider than the other one.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 There's nothing wrong with the Educated Horses cover. It's a cool picture. I like the title, too. (No, I have no interest in hearing the album itself.)
Giuseppe Zangara Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 Here's a mediocre cover that also serves as a sign of what to expect from the music itself: Comically "moody," portentous, pseudo-spiritual hackwork. Just what you can expect from any Live album.
Slayer Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 To second Coat, I always thought the muddied Rob Zombie on Hellbilly Deluxe looked a horribly stupid When I first saw it, I thought "This can't really be the same guy behind 'Thunder Kiss' and 'More Human than Human", can it?"
Special K Posted June 18, 2006 Report Posted June 18, 2006 This cover is actually pretty awesome, but it's one that always causes anyone female to look at you funny. "It's a really good album! Honestly!" And I don't think Muse necesarily sucks. They're hilariously self-important and bombastic, and I can't see myself buying one of their albums, but they're better than 90% of the shit on the radio now.
Art Sandusky Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Here's a mediocre cover that also serves as a sign of what to expect from the music itself: Comically "moody," portentous, pseudo-spiritual hackwork. Just what you can expect from any Live album. I don't think I've ever heard even a single song by Live, unless I heard it on the radio in like 1997 and didn't know it. Am I really missing much?
Gary Floyd Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Here's a mediocre cover that also serves as a sign of what to expect from the music itself: Comically "moody," portentous, pseudo-spiritual hackwork.

No, you're not missing much.
Slayer Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 I don't think I've ever heard even a single song by Live I'm sure you've heard "Lightning Crashes" at some point
Special K Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Lightning Crashes was their big hit. And I despise that song. It's maudlin and stupid. It feels like it's 8 minutes long.
Gary Floyd Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 "Lighning Crashes" is one of the worst songs ever recorded. I hated it when I was a kid, and I hate it today.
Art Sandusky Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Lightning Crashes was their big hit. And I despise that song. It's maudlin and stupid. It feels like it's 8 minutes long. OH GOD, IT'S THAT SONG. THAT'S WHO LIVE IS. And man, this DOES feel like it's 10 minutes long. Geez. It just draaaaaaaaaaags. Oh, and *snort*
Lord of The Curry Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 I proudly rocked that album cover as a Live t-shirt back in grade six.
Slayer Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 "Lightning Crashes" was allright, I thought, but there was an awful version where they interspersed audio footage from the OKC bombing.
Special K Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 "Lightning Crashes" was allright, I CAN FEEL IIIIYEEEET I CAN FEEL IIIYEEEET (back up vocalist I CAN FEEL IIIYEEEET) I CAN FEEL IYEEEEET (backup: I CAN FEEL IYEEEEYEYEYEIT) *Lead singer has shit himself* I can feel it. That's the song. It's one of the worst songs in the world. At least Jet blows their load after 3 minutes. where they interspersed audio footage from the OKC bombing. Hey, I CAN hate a band more! Hey guys check this out! And the album cover Inc posted was actually a great albnum cover it's God pissing on Live. EDIT: and Throwing Copper makes me think of the infinitely better band Throwing Muses. Who got no radio play. And I sitll hear that shit song "Lightning Crashes" on the radio and you know someone has fucked to that terrible song and oh my god the room is spinning.
Special K Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 I proudly rocked that album cover as a Live t-shirt back in grade six. This is the only band T-shirt I ever wore: That and a shirt which had the cover of "wish you were here" I so badly want the Sonic Youth 'Dirty' tee that the big guy was rocking in 40 yo Virgin. Even though I think that album isn't that great comparitively. Now THAT I would wear every fucking day/
vivalaultra Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 I humbly submit the cover of the new Keane CD for consideration in the "shittest album covers in recent memory".
PLAGIARISM! Posted June 19, 2006 Author Report Posted June 19, 2006 Pretty gay, but maybe a good band would pull it off. Even if it were good, it would look like an album people who don't like music would buy, however.
luke-o Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 To second Coat, I always thought the muddied Rob Zombie on Hellbilly Deluxe looked a horribly stupid When I first saw it, I thought "This can't really be the same guy behind 'Thunder Kiss' and 'More Human than Human", can it?" I thought he looked quite cool. But not as cool as Hillbilly Zombie he was with White Zombie. He just looks like he's had it on the new album. He sounds like it too, the album is VERY poor. Im actually struggeling to think of some more bad covers.
Special K Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Blonde Redhead-Melody of Certain Damaged Lemons Pretty hard to see, but this cover is hideous. It's just the three members of the band with like lipstick and antennae and shit drawn on them. Plus it's a REALLY stupid title. Pretty good album. They made it right on the latest one, tho.
Gary Floyd Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 And to think, I kind of like the band (Hey, a man's allowed to have guilty pleasures, ok)
Art Sandusky Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 Let's see if we can refrain from Joyce, Ken By Request Only, and all the other tired Bad Covers.
vivalaultra Posted June 19, 2006 Report Posted June 19, 2006 What about the horrible early Pantera covers? If those are unavailable, I vote for this one:
Star Ocean 3 Posted June 20, 2006 Report Posted June 20, 2006 if it's more awesome than shitty i apologize.
Art Sandusky Posted June 20, 2006 Report Posted June 20, 2006 What about the horrible early Pantera covers? If those are unavailable, I vote for this one: Okay, I pretty much said let's not rely on the Pitchfork list and whatnot.
vivalaultra Posted June 20, 2006 Report Posted June 20, 2006 There's a Pitchfork list of bad covers? I'm...out of the loop. Edit: After looking at the Pitchfork list, I did not see Millie Jackson's "Back to the Shit" anywhere on it. In fact, I had never seen it before I saw it the first time and am not aware of who Millie Jackson is.
Guest The Spike Posted June 20, 2006 Report Posted June 20, 2006 if it's more awesome than shitty i apologize. That gave me a good chuckle. It was worth it.
