Metal album covers as perceived by a child

[Jasonic]

Ok, so this morning, I was driving my daughter to pre-school.
She saw me shuffling through my piles of CDs sitting on the floor in the back seat. She asked to see some of them.

Here were her exact reactions, when I asked her how she liked each one:

NACHTMYSTIUM - Instinct-Decay

"I don't like it. Too scary"

HELLOWEEN - Gambling With The Devil

"I do like it! It looks like the circus!!!"

DEEP PURPLE - Smoke on the Water & Other Hits

"I like it. It looks heavy metal!!!"

The purpose of this thread?
Absolutley zilch! Though at least it will keep you away from the Halloween candy thread for a while, right???

How about this... I was in a thread on another board and they had "ms paint albums by bands and guess what they are". Though the two I made are horribly easy to guess, at least if you're a metal fan.

Like I said... Too easy.

 

[Jasonic]

Must be my filter at work.
All I see are RED X's....

 

[Jasonic]

In all honesty, Helloween has a history of terrible album covers. Therefore, I usually never form an opinion.
I would say the new cover is along the lines of anything one would expect from them these days.

 

[Vegetaman]

That was cruel, Pate.

Show her some more and let us know what she thinks.

I think I'll do that with Al's little sister. XD

One album cover that she LOVES is Power Quest "Magic Never Dies"
I have the shirt too, and whenever I wear it, she seems confused, kind of like, "Wait, isn't that a CD cover??"

In about 10 years she will be very embarrassed by you wearing that shirt.

Huh????

 

[OrbWeaver]

I think he's referring to the start of her teen years, whereupon every child, everywhere, becomes inherently embarrassed by their parents. This lasts for about 7 years, depending on how quickly said child matures mentally.

 

[Jasonic]

No worries there.
I am a cool parent!

My kid will have the best CD collection out of everyone she knows!

Kenny Loggins and Hewey Lewis are not cool to any kid Jason.

I think the only Huey Lewis I have is "Sports" which is a dubbed cassette I got from my Uncle when I was like 10.

Ok, so I showed my daughter another CD cover this morning:

TYR - RAGNAROK

So, I ask her, "What kind of music does this look like?"

She responds, "It looks like pirate music!!!"

Looks like I might have a viking metal fan in the works!

Dude! Where did you get that shirt????? I would LOVE a Power Quest shirt!

 

[Jasonic]

Got it direct from one of the band members.

I think they have a webshop on their official site, that sells shirts.

They have a forum here to, so you can hit em up there.
