Brand New - The God and Devil are raging inside me Every Gorillaz album Pusha T - My Name is My Name Every Jedi Mind Tricks album Death Grips - Exmilitary J Dilla - The Diary There's alot more than all this but I can't think of anything else right now.
"are we supposed to pick between wether we want family or we want ass?" i think there is a much higher meaning behind it. kanye used music to present his deepest feelings, the person he really is, and the philosophical question of what is really important in life. also, he wanted to show that he got both, family and ass.
yeah, I agree. In the album kanye often talks about his current life and the struggles of choosing between family and the girls and lifestyle he's use to.
How could you forget about Limp Bizkit's Chocolate Starfish and The Hotdog Flavoured Water? I know nobody thinks about Limp Bizkit anymore and for good reason but that cover came from the depths of hell.
Bring Me The 1975 Pilots! at My Chemical NBHD Nah, if you think it's that bad you haven't seen the cover for Death grips' No love deep web, (and I'm not talking about the SFW alternate cover)
"If that's uranus, or my anus? I don't know what that is" "are we supposed to pick between whether we want family or we want ass?" THIS IS THE KIND OF CONTENT THAT I SUBSCRIBED FOR LMAO😂😂😂
Favorite lines in this video: "because god knows this isn't mom's spaghetti, this is chef boyardee" "it looks like I'm going to fucking home depot about to go shopping and choose my paint color 'what color do I want my walls to be honey?' 'oh I don't know let's look at the paint color' 'oh I don't know we already got the pallet right here I mean we own that yellowcard album I guess we could check with that perfect'" "number 13 Lady Gaga motorcycle this way" "and then they have a station wagon with all of their bags strapped to the top of it like they're the magic fucking school bus or something going through I don't know what solar system they're in I mean clearly that's not Earth that they're passing by I don't know if that's uranus or that's my anus or what that is" "whatever it is, it looks like it came from hell and needs to stay there" "I mean imagine if somebody walked up to you and they were like *puckered lip sound* you'd run" "this looks like if your grandpa got into coke on Christmas eve, thought that he was Santa Claus and then came down the chimney"
The members of Iron Maiden chose an unfinished cover from the artist. He presented a final art, they didn't like it, and they choosed an unfinished one. The artist wasn't pleased either.
@@suleymantekingurmen7643 I'd say it's actually a damn good album, not as good as BNW or BOS or most of their stuff from the 80's, but still a damn good album.
This list needed Mosquito by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I have no idea why they thought it was a good idea to have an album cover that looked like it belonged to a late 80s third tier funk metal band that you'd find in the dollar bin in a used record store.
I don't like Taylor Swift's Fearless Platinum Edition album cover. The normal version with the beige background doesn't bother me. But whoever was hired to design the platinum version did a shit job at changing the background to black. If you look closely, you can still see bits and pieces of the beige in her hair that they forgot to get rid of. Why, just why?
The insultingly bad album cover that makes me wince is the debut self-titled mixtape, "Lil Pump" by Lil Pump. Not to be rude, but the artwork and the caricature of Lil Pump is sort of off-putting.
If there was a best list of album covers than Powerslave would easily belong on there. Just such an amazing cover and makes me wonder how they went to Dance Of Death
The Gaga cover freaked me out when I was like 13 years old and I had to change the cover in my itunes library to a normal picture of her. Lmao totally deserves a spot on this list.
"I sure wish I could get out of here and go skate and play some pop-punk music with my friends!" jfc I cried laughing at that Yellowcard rant esp as someone who really likes(d? rip) the band "It looks like I'm going to fucking Home Depot about to go shopping and choose my paint colour." I don't regret subscribing to this channel
Am I the only one who loves Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz Cover? It kind of fits perfectly with the music. Is it messy? yes. Is it polarizing? yes. Is it an explosion into the cosmos? probably.
haha idk if you decided to put the smash mouth cover in here bc of my tweet but I'm calling this "the closest I'll ever get to being in somebody's video"
You should also do awesome album covers, there’s a lot of good ones like Pretty. Odd. by Panic! at the Disco, Twenty One Pilots’ self-titled, The Open Door by Evanescence, etc.
I can't remember the name of the band but it was a metal band and after one of their concerts the lead singer committed suicide and a band member took a photo of it and that became their next album cover.
I had that lady gaga album as a 10 year old huge lady gaga fan, and for some reason, i remembered it as gaga lying on the motorcycle, i was so sure about it. last week i found the album again, and god, i was terrified
I had to look up the Iron Maiden album because I literally could not believe that that was real but it is, and in fact, the Wikipedia page says: The computer-generated cover art was provided by David Patchett,[10] who allegedly asked for his name to be removed from the album's credits after the band decided to use an unfinished version,[11] which was received negatively.[12] Dickinson later called the cover "embarrassing".[13] So at least they know.
Does anybody else think the album cover at Number 3 looks like some 13 year old made and posted it to his deviantart account or maybe it looks like it was based on a laughably bad Fanfiction that someone made.
i really hated the new st vincent album cover until i actually heard the album. honestly the cover can be garbage but if the album is actually good then i dont mind
I remember being so confused when I saw Dance Of Death cyz Maiden has some of the best album arts. What made them think it was a good choice to stick with?
I'm just going to mention Mayhem's infamous cover art for "Dawn of the Black Hearts". Considering Euronymous had a record label exclusively for Second-Wave Black Metal, that's the only reason why we now have an album cover showcasing an actually deceased individual with his brains blown out. Cannibal Corpse is a weird one to consider. Some of their albums are banned due to how vulgar and explicit the album covers were...
Skelly Welly I agree. Iron Maiden actually got me to click on the video, lol. I'm a huge Maiden fan, and most of their album covers are pretty badass, even though the Dance of Death cover is crap. So I guess I agree with Jon here, lol.
dance of death is their most underrated album, but I guess that's your opinion. Like in my opinion dance of death is way better than the number of the beast, powerslave, and piece of mind
Can you review the Owl City Cinematic previews? Since you hated "All My Friends" so much, I'd be interested to see how you think the rest of the album will be like.
So many people have heard them, though. The video with the previews has over 30k views and is consistently getting more. And they are only 20-30 second previews, so he's not really spoiling the song.
Let Luke Game I mean for spoiling them for himself, like he does with singles, he only reviews 2 of them before the release of an album, if he listens to snippets of each song from Cinematic then it wouldn't feel as authentic
Hey John great 2017 worst songs video. On the Worst album covers if thiers a part 2 then def lappards high and dry and hysteria albums i think should make the list.
If you do another one of these consider f(x)’s ep electric shock. It’s this ugly distorted grey image of the members standing in a field in rubber animal masks. And on top of that someone thought it was a good idea to replace the x in their logo with a horrific stuffed bear head. Just thinking about it gives me nightmares.
I actually really like most of these, I have a bit of a knack for disturbing art, though I know many people don’t really like stuff like that, so I totally understand why you don’t like them. Of course, there are ones that I absolutely hate. Such as the Miley Cyrus one which me uncomfortable in a non-artistic way and makes me physically makes me sick
I actually really like all of the cures album covers! With an exception of three imaginary boys, the top and their self titled album…their album covers have always reflected the sound of the music itself (e.g - disintegration, faith, pornography, etc) who else agree with me on this?
Born This Way's cover is baad, but it's not like I cared enough about the album itself back then. The eye in the mouth on the cover of Witness is kinda scary. That Iron Maiden cover is... odd, to say the least. Don't know exactly what's going on with #2. I'm really wondering what went through the head of whoever did that album cover for Bowling for Soup. Given the year of its release, I was expecting that kind of color scheme from that Smash Mouth LP. As for #1... I don't understand Snapchat.
Moral of the story: going into the extremes to do something that’s “in with the times” even just for an album cover will become another one of those moments, where you just look back on old scrapbook photos of yourself, and try to avoid that one page at all times.
Bbbruh i straight up died in this video. These are awful. I literally avoid albums by artists i really like if their cover is this bad. I can’t even look at it. Thnx for bringing back some of the worst 😂
It's funny because Lady Gaga's deluxe cover for Born This Way (the one where it's only the head) is so good it's probably one of her best covers lmao! But that motorcycle is really ugly, I hate that cover.
I’m gonna have to politely disagree on the cover for Chronic Town. It has a somber charm to it that I think works well with the E.P. But it’s just my opinion.

Please do 17 good album covers! There are so many great ones
Lars-Kristian Plastic Beach by Gorillaz and Black Holes & Revelations are my favorites
Any Converge LP art, the Bell Witch (Mirror Reaper) art, Muse LP art, Radiohead LP art (most of them IMHO), My Bloody Valentine's Loveless, Pink Floyd's LP art, Napalm Death (expect for Smear Campaign), the Maine has some great LP art, Black Sabbath has consistent artwork, Iron Maiden (Dance of Death doesn't count its thier worst LP art), Metallica, Power Trip, Full Of Hell had has some AMAZING art for thier music, Code Orange, Nails, Paramore, Pusha T, Prince, QtSA, RHCP, Sigur Ros, Silver Mt.

tl;dr - God, I said LP too many times.
honourable mentions: U2, Soilwork, Pantera (Reinventing the Steel had a shitty LP art though), Led Zepplin NIN, the National, Interpol (self-titled and Our Love to Admire, are my least favourite covers), Enslaved (RIITR, In Times, E), the Beatles, (the LP covers after Revolver), TDEP, Electric Wizard, Mayhem (their first album though) and Grand Magus. Ok, my list, is done.
Infinity On High by Fall Out Boy and Black Sabbath's self-titled are easily my top 2.
Brand New - The God and Devil are raging inside me
Every Gorillaz album
Pusha T - My Name is My Name
Every Jedi Mind Tricks album
Death Grips - Exmilitary
J Dilla - The Diary
There's alot more than all this but I can't think of anything else right now.
American Idiot. It’s iconic
I just realized John has the same facial expression as Miley Cyrus in the thumbnail lmao...
Jon
From a graphic designer stand point these are beyond terrible and terrifying, these are abominations.
"The Life of Pablo" and "This is Acting" are actually pretty good...
That new Maroon 5 album cover gives me diseases
EDIT: I just saw that you put at #1 lmao glad we have the same opinion
Michael Bunn ohh shit spoiler😂
I think the concept was "These are what blue pilled basic bitch normies look like before they're red pilled."
Twas gonna say the same thing

I remember when Gaga shared the Born This Way cover and thinking it was a joke until the album came out and it was real.

Iron Maiden usually has fantastic album art. I guess the Dance of Death cover just came about when digital art started becoming a thing.
The insultingly bad album cover that makes me wince is the debut self-titled mixtape, "Lil Pump" by Lil Pump. Not to be rude, but the artwork and the caricature of Lil Pump is sort of off-putting.
Quentin Childs personally I think it's decent. But the art style looks like something off of GoAnimate.
I was going to comment the same thing. I don't like his cover art at all. I think the cartoonish style is really ugly
Don't let that album art sway you from listening too Iron Maiden, if you haven't already. They're a pretty awesome band.
Fuck yeah! Maiden are my third favorite band of all time!
If there was a best list of album covers than Powerslave would easily belong on there. Just such an amazing cover and makes me wonder how they went to Dance Of Death

Aaron 78 fair point, it was a disappointing album
Joe B I never liked it. Not just the extreme pucker but the neck! It looks like it came from a giraffe
It's only bad if you look at it too closely. Other album covers are terrible even at a glance.
"Argh! Kill it! Burn it! Send it Hell where it belongs!"

All My Friends is the only REALLY BAD song on his new album
Luis Murillo Rivera this was written at a time where the only single out was all my friends, I hated that song and I expected the worst
The Iron Maiden one looks like an unfinished 3D animation.
To be fair Bowling For Soup are more of a joke band so I don't think they really put work into their album cover
Germane O' Neil still doesn't make it good lol
Conta-fake Never said it was
The majority of their album covers are really bad, besides “A Hangover You Don’t Deserve”
Am I the only one who loves Miley Cyrus and Her Dead Petz Cover? It kind of fits perfectly with the music. Is it messy? yes. Is it polarizing? yes. Is it an explosion into the cosmos? probably.

My favorite Evanescence one is Fallen. Even though when it's advertised it looks different from the actual cover which I never knew why they did that.
Kendrick Lamar To Pimp A Butterfly cover is a masterpiece
Haha I've actually always loved the Gaga motorcycle. It may be ugly or silly but I kinda like that.
I personally would have added that Papa Roach album with the cockroach in the cover, makes me wanna puke whenever I come across it.
I always thought that the cover Born This Way was her standing next to a motorcycle, but the cover for the bonus track version is creepier.
I actually really like The Life Of Pablo's cover art
Elene Qarqusashvili me too !
I can't remember the name of the band but it was a metal band and after one of their concerts the lead singer committed suicide and a band member took a photo of it and that became their next album cover.
Michael Lewis that's mayhem I believe
Yeah that’s by MAYHEM trve satanic black metal legends! That’s the best album cover off all time!
Some suggestions:
Genesis - From genesis to revelation
Spock's Beard - Noise floor
BMTH - Count your blessings
Chumbawamba - Tubthumping

The Maroon 5 album cover is like a visual representation of Buzzfeed. A condescending attempt to pander to millennials.
I actually really like all of the cures album covers! With an exception of three imaginary boys, the top and their self titled album…their album covers have always reflected the sound of the music itself (e.g - disintegration, faith, pornography, etc) who else agree with me on this?
Born This Way's cover is baad, but it's not like I cared enough about the album itself back then.
The eye in the mouth on the cover of Witness is kinda scary.
That Iron Maiden cover is... odd, to say the least.
Don't know exactly what's going on with #2.
I'm really wondering what went through the head of whoever did that album cover for Bowling for Soup.
Given the year of its release, I was expecting that kind of color scheme from that Smash Mouth LP.
As for #1... I don't understand Snapchat.
Moral of the story: going into the extremes to do something that’s “in with the times” even just for an album cover will become another one of those moments, where you just look back on old scrapbook photos of yourself, and try to avoid that one page at all times.
I think the R.E.M. cover is sick! I like the contrast with the music. Gives the music a creepy (in a good way) kinda vibe. 🤷♂️
I agree. Why is it on the list? I have been always intrigued by this album cover art.
Bbbruh i straight up died in this video. These are awful. I literally avoid albums by artists i really like if their cover is this bad. I can’t even look at it. Thnx for bringing back some of the worst 😂
The Life Of Pablo album cover is a conceptual masterpiece lmao
It's funny because Lady Gaga's deluxe cover for Born This Way (the one where it's only the head) is so good it's probably one of her best covers lmao! But that motorcycle is really ugly, I hate that cover.
Holy shit, I never figured out that Lady Gaga was merged with the motorcycle. I just passed by and lived my life thinking she's just by a motorcycle.
I’m gonna have to politely disagree on the cover for Chronic Town. It has a somber charm to it that I think works well with the E.P. But it’s just my opinion.
Michael Jackson "Bad". I like many of the songs on that album, but that cover was flat out embarrassing.
