Oh my god, can you imagine...is that an actual cover? I feel like Marlon Brando in "Apocalypse Now'.."the horrification" ...If I recall, there was a similarly strange album cover by a girl group in the 70s called "the Shaggs"..does anyone remember that? ....I just found them on Youtube, but I don't know how to post it here...it is so strange..If you type in "philosophy of the world, the Shaggs", you can see it. I don't think that it was a joke.

Another album cover thread suffering a slow and horrible death.

And as much as I love Ys, this is hilarious:

This is the artwork for a bootleg by the band Rock Slope.

I prefer the other cover...it was a great parody of Sgt. Pepper. I liked their early album covers.."weasels ripped my flesh", "Uncle Meat", "absolutely free"..

Yeah, I love most of the Roxy Music covers. Country Life is my favorite.

I actually thought it was a good thread until all that stuff happened. Let's start fresh.

I'm not even trying to be funny. I genuinely think this artwork is worth 1000--no--1 million words.
