Threads like this pop every now and then and they always get locked because they end up turning into a shitfest of coprophagia and dismembered corpses.

That said, isn't there another thread on album covers right now?

It's not exactly the same thing but this is a link to the thread "Album covers in poorest taste". I'm sure you will find some overlap.

The "Gore and Perversion" album by Desecration (UK) should probably get a mention. Sure there are probably more gruesome album covers, but there's an infant getting skullfucked. You can't even find a picture of the album online because it got confiscated.

Not sure what makes it disturbing, maybe just because I don't know what the fuck is going on there.

The gore stuff doesn't disturb me at all, no matter how gross it is.

I posted a link to their myspace a while back in a thread about "weird lyrical themes". They're not very good =/

The content of the cover has nothing to do with how "silly" this thread is. That, and supergroup threads have been done to death. They're fucking boring and it's best to just put an end to them. This topic should follow shortly, but for the time being this might survive if we can actually discuss the covers.

I always thought this one was a mixture of disturbing and cool:

Also, this cover by Flames is pretty disturbing for 1986:

The Pungent Stench "Been Caught Buttering" cover has always looked repulsive to me. I just can't stand looking at it, yet there's no serious gore or sperm or anything.

Just two dismembered heads kissing each other - both being guys. I dunno it's just so tasteless and ugly - the sight alone just makes me uncomfortable.

I remember reading about it and apparently it's actually a single head cut in half, so those are its two halves. How the artist procured a decomposed human head I don't remember.

And it fits the album perfectly! Although I will say the music is better than the art alone would suggest.

I actually did hear the album, invoked, and I must say I never heard such boring, mundane, intelligent-lacking music. This is coming from someone who doesn't think Anaal Nakrath are worth a damn and think that people are giving deathcore too much publicity ON THIS SITE.

I heard it was slightly melodic and rough, but "sucks" would be a half-decent word to some of BCB and Pungent Stench at that.

Ah whatever, you do like Agalloch, so it is to be expected that you would not enjoy it.

Edit: The cover is not of two men kissing.

Then there's that album by some Mexican goregrind band with the long pathological name. This thread seems to be the sequel to the Album Covers in Poorest Taste thread that was up several months back.

Stop your whining. You already whined about one of your threads getting locked. If you think a thread should be locked, send a moderator a PM. I know you don't want to hear this but we aren't omnipresent.
