Worst album covers

I actually meant to say I like it as its own thing but it’s fucking hideous as a celebratory, anniversary cover. I still don’t get the aversion to the original cover, which is perfect. The 2007 reissues also had a hideous cover, and get that bubblegum pink and baby blue off the album color scheme!
Oh well we agree then!
 
Just from the opening track I was like “when is Cherry Red going to reissue this” and turns out they already did in 2012?!? Ahead of their time nn. Can’t find any links so I assume it went OOP.
I think it took forever to sell out. Seemed to be on clearance for years. Doubt it will ever get another outing.

I had a feeling because this is the first time I’ve seen anything about them, and I frequently perused the Comeback Corner and constantly hunted for 80s music suggestions nn.

Welp, gonna have to sort through eBay I guess.

I want a documentary about these artistic decisions. The "why did I come into this room?" one takes the cake, but lord...

I am too Rocky Mountain to know who Nicki French is, but it's impressive to see such a breadth of visual shit. It makes me wonder if I missed a trick by not doing album art as a side gig in high school. Case in point: the below custom album artwork I made for a Christmas compilation disc for my mom who I got to stan three of my faves circa 2014. What a time...

And just for shits and giggles here's the reverse:

Both took me a whole afternoon to make in GIMP fsggagfshds. I miss spending so much time on inane personal projects. And let me get this CD on the agenda for tomorrow's listening yas.

Dead at the idea of including this in a Christmas present for your mother
