    The Bon Jovi one is just a parody of the cover art of the 1959 Elvis Presley compilation _50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong: Elvis' Gold Records, Volume 2._ An extremely _ill-advised_ parody, admittedly.

    Funny thing about the Dokken album, their next studio album after that was called "Erase The Slate" - they were very much aware that trying to break into grunge was a bad idea even if they had someone less conniving than George Lynch.
    I mean, good lord, the logo on Shadowlife isn't even the actual Dokken logo, it looks like someone tried to recreate the Dokken logo with a default system font and gave up after typing it out.

    Say what you will, but Viper's Jpegmafia diss has stayed in the peripheral of my waking consciousness since 2019. He is also important in a strange way to the DIY nature of a lot of modern hip-hop. He's not quite as significant (or BASED) as Lil B, but still.

It was easily one of the coolest things I'd ever seen at the time. But man, seeing the cropped version the band had to use for the cover was disappointing as hell.
    The full piece, though? Probably Priest's best album cover. Easily my favorite of the covers Mark Wilkinson did for the band.

    What hurts about the Offspring cover is that the lead single has probably their worst verse ever. And the rest of song is atrocious too, tbh. The second song that I heard from them (sent via IR on an old Java Sony Erikson god I miss junior high school) was Spare Me The Details and I still like it so the bar is not all that high as far as my resilience for their less, erm, stellar stuff goes. There are bad times just around the corner, folks.
