Great Music : Terrible Artwork ratio

[AQOS]

Which great bands have exclusively terrible artwork?

I’d like to present Hot Chip:

Can anyone beat that?

[Twinkletoes]

[kiyonemakibi]

(and so on)

[spicer]

Someone post all the Muse covers pls

[weeber]

I actually like the cover art for Songs From Northern Britain. The rest are dreadful though.

[spicer]

Oh hang on missed the ‘great music’ bit

[IWornMyElbows]

Said it before on here, but Mew.

Though at this point it has become part of the charm

The Residents have some great and Iconic ones. Such as this

But they have A LOT of awful ones. And I’m going to post them all here for your enjoyment

[Icarus-Smicarus]

A lot of The Fall

[Icarus-Smicarus]

Robert Pollard sometimes seems to give his worst albums the best artwork and the best albums the worst artwork

[Jamos]

always thought pavement’s album covers were a bit shit

[Icarus-Smicarus]

Really like the Slanted cover, fits the messy music very well. Can take or leave the rest but don’t think any are actively bad, except maybe Terror Twilight

[TVDenimChap]

Sorry misread the thread title. Still gonna leave this here

So did @Twinkletoes unless Shpongle are amazing

[kiyonemakibi]

Wowee Zowee is one of the best covers ever so it makes up for the rest

[SenorDingDong]

I don’t know what the consensus is on the artwork for both of these, but I dislike a lot more REM and Bruce Springsteen album covers than I like.

[Twinkletoes]

@1101010

Shpongle are amazing

Glad we agree

GREAT shout

[bornin69x]

Not even going to include some of the later albums which have even worse sleeves (but are also pretty awful music), but Van Morrison has to be a contender:
