UPDATE: DAMNATED has brought to my attention that there is a thread talking about best album covers so from here (10/15/08), this thread is only regarding BAD album covers.

Written by Doc G. on 27.01.2009 at 10:08 yeah buying that album nowadays would earn you some SHIFTY glares. its not as bad as the infamous Manowar compilation cover *shudders*. but the creepiness factor is something i completely acknowledge.

Written by Thrashard on 28.01.2009 at 06:07 Pff if i could draw that good now i would be happy. and by 3% i think they mean 3% short of pure awesomeness. personally that one who got 3% (Drink From the Waters of War) is the best cover of all theirs imo. time to check them out when i get home, im bound to be pleseantly surprised... maybe they can be my 'deadly towers'!

This band has some of the worst looking album covers around: http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=74299 I think they're not supposed to ba any good though, as the band itself doesn't seem serious. Also, Keydragon is nearly famous on Metal Archives for being so much crap in every way possible, along with bands like Iwrestledabearonce and Zarach 'Baal' Tharagh. Their covers are still damn hilarious though.

Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 29.01.2009 at 15:39 I laughed m ass off discovering this bands... But I actually liked Iwrestledabearonce. It seeme like a more mature band than the others. And the vocalist surprised me with her growl and good clean vocals. Catchy shit. And she's cute imo.  EDIT: Dude... I actually loved this stuff. I found i brilliant. The only thing that could be a joke is the name and the bandpic from MA.

You're the first person I've ever seen who's ever had anything good to say about that band. Myself, I think they're pretty much the definition of what you shouldn't do with metal, but if it floats your boat, then good for you.

Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 29.01.2009 at 18:23 Jajajaja Yeah. I actually have to thank you. It's crazy shit but C'mon... some of the stuff is really technical and it shows that this guys know what they're doing. Maybe the change of vocals and music is way to drastical to be prepared. But the last months I've been into many crazy styles and this was a funnny yet good music.

Written by X-Ray Rod on 30.01.2009 at 21:57 At least you're open minded huh...  Whatever floats your boat I guess. I've heard this band being mentioned as being a bit like them, but I haven't listened to it (and I probably won't considering I don't like IWABO). Nevertheless, you might want to try. http://www.metal-archives.com/band.php?id=3540261065 Also, more on topic: the Enbilulugugal/Necrobestiality split:

Written by ForeverDarkWoods on 30.01.2009 at 22:04 O man.. I'm a open-minded person. But even I hates that band... It's just bullshit. Cheking the other band now... Jajajja the beginning was good. I'm truly into everthing that can be against the norm. But at the same time I can also like some conservative Black or Grind. But that Enbilulugugal is just shit.

Enbilulugugal was more of a mention in the horrible album art category. They suck so much I wouldn't reccomend them to anyone. Black noise can be quite interesting (Abruptum, Gnaw Their Tongues, Dead Raven Choir etc), but it can also be utter crap. Embilulugugal is one of those utter crap shitfests...

Obviously Thor's Hammer- The Fate Worse than Death. it makes Manowar's Anthology look like a Michelango painting. even though i love Manowar to death and beyond but that cover is atrocious to the max. NO I DID NOT PHOTOSHOP THIS lol  man finding a good picture of it was hard. the back cover is slightly better, even though it's reeaaally subtle heh...(it's the one to the right of the image)

Some bands just don't have the money for a good cover but when a big band comes with a very amateurish cover that is no excuse. Deicide's "Till Death do us a Part" has a god awful cover. downright horrid.

I'd never heard of Keydragon before reading these posts, so i did a google image search, and I spat a mouthful of dry roasted peanuts over my computer screen as I laughed out aloud, must remember not to breathe in with the afforementioned peanuts. My 3 year old could do better! One of the worst album covers i've come across has got to be Chameleon by Helloween, what was the point. A reflection of the album contained within. It looks like a very small child put it's fingers in some coloured paint then thought it would start to paint a masterpiece, but couldn't be bothered.

That Thor's Hammer cover is repulsive  , fvcking Nazi Scum.But anyway, as far as awful album covers, I never liked plain album covers like Metallica's "Black Album" for instance. The Manowar anthology album is pretty bad lol.
