    14) The Black Crowes - Amorica: Doesn't this look like one of those doo-rags that the guy from the "Real Housewives Of New Jersey" wears on his head?

    Obviously he didnt look at the real cover :lol:

    Someone needs to tell the writer that that is the censored cover of "Amorica" by the Black Crowes....it's not a do-rag....it's a bikini bottom on a young lady with her pubic hair peeking out the top....it was originally a cover for "Hustler" magazine. :roll: :twisted:

    Hey now, they are the defenders of metal!

    A friend of mine has a Manowar poster in his place that is similar to this, but has a bunch of very big-breasted and naked women crawling at their feet much like KISS's Love Gun album cover.

    It's awesome, in a metal-groupie kind of way. :lol:

    Ya know, the fact that he didn't post the true album cover artwork and seems to have no knowledge of it should be pretty embarrassing for him considering the article he wrote, the fact that he included that record, and that he should be quite informed about music being a journalist about it.

    Isn't this basically a swipe of the cover to Kiss's "Destroyer" ???? :lol::lol: :twisted:

    My main agreement on that list is this one..

    39697345.jpg

    You can dig up lots of strange artwork on the net, like Ken, All My Friends Are Dead, etc. But as far as actual, established acts go, that has to be one of the worst. I'm sure Mick feels right at home in the 80's pastel colors, because he's a trendy guy, but the rest of The Stones look, and probably feel embarrassed. Charlie Watts looks like he's too ashamed to even look at the camera.
