2:17 "Difficult to read text" You could've just said you can't read cursive. Other than that small gripe, agreed.

I mean the tubthumper cover is uncanny and ugly but its intentional so is it really bad or actually kinda genius

The subtitles over the Chumbawamba Tubthumping art were a particularly nice touch.

shame that these covers are from english language albums, the cover of Chico Buarque's As Cidades is genuinely the single ugliest thing i have ever seen and most people outside of brazil should be aware of its disgraceful existence

I can't believe The Butthole Surfers didn't get a mention here. Electriclarryland has the worst album cover of all time.

Cant believe he didn't even mention Nigel Peppercock's "Fresh White Reeboks Kickin' Your Ass"

It's a kinda shame Mosquito is only well-known for its album cover (And apparently, it's so bad that the cover is shown cropped on Spotify). Regardless of how it's designed, I thought it was a very decent album.

Me, getting ready to Google the cover for Virgin Killer:
Mic: The cover is a nude preteen girl–
Me, exiting Google: Actually, never mind.

Would Led Zep count as a 3rd nickel?

How about Waco Jesus – The Destruction Of Commercial Scum (and I don't mean the nippies, keep searching if you find that one)? Or if you've haven't seen enough yet… Stoma – Scat Aficionados.
Including those in the video would be a hell of a way to get banned from YT.

the part at 4:15–4:16 feels like it's from an entirely different video plucked out of the alt-right pipeline

fallout boy's so much (for) stardust, the first time i saw it i'm pretty sure i went eww out loud. it's not offensive or anything it's just bafflingly bad. the font, the tiny dog picture in the centre of a black background, the bubbles…

"Why do album covers even matter? You're supposed to listen to the album not look at it."
It's the literal first impression of the album.

I have thought since I first saw it that Kesha was not appropriately roasted for the Delusional album cover.
Also Raditude is one of the best album covers of all time.

John Fogerty’s Eye of the Zombie. It’s like he saw the Michael Jackson Thriller music video and decided upon having him as a werecat instead of a zombie, therefore missing the point of the name. The title track however had zombies as a reference to war crimes with no substance. The Cranberries done this metaphor right years later in 1992.
For the offensive album covers, the Mayhem bootleg Dawn of the Blackhearts count as well due to having a photo taken of Dead’s corpse(after he took his own life) in front, which is both fucked up and disgusting. This was prior to another tragedy hitting the band.
Regarding two of this video’s entries Iron Maiden’s Dance of Death cover is straight up powered by Source engine and what I can compare to the American/Michigan Chillers’ 2007-2009 reissues. On the other hand, Chumbawumba’s Tubthumping is far better than Anarchy(used image of an actual childbirth operation, baby coming out of the mother’s poon; search it up at your own risk ⚠️).
