Nothing really metal, but I was reminded of a email forward I got years ago.

Enjoy.

ok I see nothing wrong with the Secret Sphere or the Heavenly album covers, 2 hotties can make just about make anything cool.

Looks like Caffrey is on the far left in the white and red striped tank top

Yup ... getting some sun-tan on those progressive nipples. I like it!
Music sucks though - I only bought it bcs of the Caffery connection.

^Right? That shit is awesome.

Yep, almost made me want to listen to the album.

The concept isn't bad, but the execution is. The coloring is just way off and inconsistent, both with the central woman, and the fonts.

What do you mean when you say "way off and inconsistent"? I'm not seeing it.

 

[Yippee38]

I don't like it. But then again, I'm not the fan base WT cares about. They are now all about commercial success, so they don't care for people like me who think their first couple of albums are their best.

Wolf - s/t and/or Fates Warning - Night On Brocken both sport really bad album art.

 

[AeonicSlumber]

Am I missing something here? Two chicks with huge tits getting ready to make out is a bad album cover?????

Yes, two fake looking unattractive 80's cartoon pornstars with comically large breasts getting ready to make out is a horrible album cover.

 

[Comic Book Dude]

Actually, they aren't that horribly proportioned...porn pics were probably used for reference....taste aside, it's not a horribly "drawn" illustration. Besides, it definitely makes you look at it, and isn't that what the cover art is for?

You had me at "pornstars with comically large breasts getting ready to make out "

 

[Claus / Intromental]

I sure could use a big glass of cold milk now ....

 

[Akumu]

taste aside

Yeah exactly.

Fucking agreed, man. It's badly drawn and obviously made to appeal to stereotypical neckbearded must-point-out-at-any-opportunity-how-much-I-like-breasts-otherwise-people-may-think-I'm-not-a-real-man metalheads. I liked most of Derek Gores' Kamelot covers, but that was a real low.

Dude, I agree with you that's a pretty awful artwork... but your comment regarding the "comically large breasts" got me wondering... They're NOT that out of proportion or that exaggerated... You sure you know a lot about breasts?

 

[AngraRULES]

And here's another awful cover art:

 

[Metal_Camden]

HAHA i have seen much worse.
