  • Reply with quote


Hey Smile

With the games thread being a bit bleak right now, I though I'd start a tournament.

We haven't done best album covers Razz And I though it'd be fun.

The album doesn't have to be good, and we're not judging it based off the music, we're just judging it for the cover.

There's tonnes of good choice to pick from, but I've decided to keep our list at 64 submissions Smile .

Everyone got 3 submissions, and I get one Smile

My choice: Velvet Underground & Nico

CURRENT STANDINGS



-SECTION A-
Closer
In The Court Of The Crimson King

-SECTION B-

Velvet Underground & Nico

-SECTION C-
Under The Iron Sea

-SECTION D-

-SECTION E-
Unknown Pleasures

-SECTION F-
Animals

-SECTION G-
London Calling

-SECTION H-
Music Has the Right to Children



The rounds will be posted in individual threads. This topic will remain as the 'questions/ ideas' topic as well.

Right. I have already thought of 2 albums I'd like to nominate:

Revolver
Trout Mask Replica

Hmm........the third...............hey, I got it!

Doc at the Radar Station

But maybe I should replace TMR with something else. Think

I'll think about it, but I nominate Revolver and Doc for sure.

Frank Zappa - Weasels Ripped My Flesh

Clash - London Calling (but only if people know the send-up/homage to Elvis)

We'll pair up the albums, and people will vote for which one they like the best (via poll), and they'll go on to the next round, until someone wins Very Happy
