First thing I thought of, Rolling Stones "Sticky Fingers".

The working zipper and if I'm not mistaken, wasn't there
a bit of cotton underwear behind the zipper?

Smasher/Devourer		2003-02-26 12:31:39 AM

Keep on posting man, this is a blast!

yagoingorno		2003-02-26 12:32:44 AM

saccharine trust that is

ator1		2003-02-26 12:32:58 AM

crap, how could I forget the biatchin 3D covers? It'd be cool to be able to print out your own replacement 3d pics for those.

doodievomit		2003-02-26 12:33:31 AM

One of my favorites, in my collection, unfortunately this is the largest scan I could find on the web.

haha!! NBC cut away when TATU started making out!
Losers.

ramius5783		2003-02-26 12:34:35 AM

did nbc focus on the guitarist from t.a.t.u. during his solo while the girls made out?

Craptacular		2003-02-26 12:34:57 AM

Half of you guys aren't even posting GOOD COVERS. Just your favorite bands. Any album with the artist's face on it can't be a good album cover unless it's done artfully.

Example:

Some other faves...

RagingLeonard: By 13 seconds! That's crazy, man.

craptacular - hunky dory.. nice.

ScootsMagoo		2003-02-26 12:36:48 AM

Why the fark did they have to cut away when they kissed? Motherfarkers. (I'm talking about TATU on Leno).

Looking at these posts reminds me of "Norma Desmond" (Sunset Boulevard)

"I know you. You used to be in silent pictures. You used to be big," he says to the dark, miserable old woman in sunglasses. "I am big," Desmond insists, her head up high, "It's the pictures that got small!"

Man_With_No_Name		2003-02-26 12:37:00 AM

The original devil girl orgy cover of

Lords of Acid - VooDoo-U

NSFW or I'd post it.

Incubus - S.C.I.E.N.C.E.

the1truedan		2003-02-26 12:37:32 AM

I'm a tad biased, but this is my favorite cover from my own hip hop mixes...

jippydawg		2003-02-26 12:37:46 AM

Hooray for King Crimson post. Also, The Division Bell is a good one (that and every other Pink Floyd album).

picodenico		2003-02-26 12:38:12 AM

i hate nbc. i boycott it, except for conan

France		2003-02-26 12:38:13 AM

Dead Milkmen- Metaphysical Graffiti

NOFX- Liberal Animation and The Longest Line

Bad Religion- How Could Hell Be Any Worse? and Against the Grain

Oingo Boingo- Boingo

Sxooter		2003-02-26 12:38:19 AM

Look VERY closely. I owned this album for about three years as a teenager before I noticed the subtle fark quality artwork under the veils...

FriQue		2003-02-26 12:38:56 AM

They didn't cut away when Arse-in-yo kissed Jay though huh?
Eww..

PurpleHaze		2003-02-26 12:39:26 AM

No one should give props to Metallica's Black album w/o first mentioning the TRUE Black album...AC/DC Back In Black.

Maiden's Somewhere In Time is nothing flashy, but SO freakin' cool. Incredible album as well...my favorite Maiden disc. Ah, Stranger in a Strange Land.....time to listen to it.

Lateralus is the coolest 'bells and whistles' album insert.

And what about STP's Purple? Baby on a dragon rocks.

theboywiththeFILTHYlaugh		2003-02-26 12:39:48 AM

I can't believe nobody's mentioned This Is Hardcore by Pulp. A classic cover, at least, for the nineties, especially when you look at it closely.

darchstick		2003-02-26 12:40:09 AM

I find it hard to believe not a single person has mentioned any album by White Zombie. All the metal-heads and the awesomeness of their covers (at least what's inside) should have guaranteed a place here.
