Truly shite, but the way the guy with the red V is pasted in at an angle - so his centre of gravity is way over his right leg, meaning he would go on his snot on the ground - that's what annoys me the most

Anthrax doing a shitty knock off of a Kiss  album cover. The Kiss one came out over 40 years ago and it still looks better. The Anthrax one just look bland and boring. Some of them look unrecognizable too.

It's one of my favourite records of all time, but naked lads getting milled off a mountain? 'sake.

On a bit of a Pantera nostalgia buzz at the moment and gave Reinventing the Steel a few spins as it was definitely my least listened to album of theirs. Prob due to the fact that I never have it that much attention, it only really dawned on me how absolutely fucking scutter the album cover is. Everything about it is utter shit. The stupid junkie looking redneck in his trunks, and the blurred out bottle of presumably whiskey in his hand. Rubbish.

Yeah it's a funny one that, it's a pretty awful cover despite being a great record. I kind of overlook the detail on the cover (maybe because it's so poorly rendered) and just treat it as a kind of blurry mountain.

A bit like The Shadowthrone, I just see this semi-blurry shape and instantly connect it with amazing music, so it's never bothered me.

I have to say i never noticed the men either!

It's doubly awful when you consider how good the preceding six sleeves were. Some of those are flat out iconic.

The 20th anniversary edition has is much better in its execution, but the awful concept remains.

What was that album cover of some oiled up dude naked with a hard-on?
He looked to be standing on some Arizona desert highway. Ridiculous... Hahaha....
