Top 10 Examples of Bad Album Art

  I meant to write this along time ago but I got busy with school and work and other things that caused this to be delayed until now. As you probably know, I love bad album art. No not the album art for Michael Jackson's Bad, I mean really bad album art that is so terrible it's good. So here is my list of bad album art.
This is just wrong.
  1. The Ministers Quartet, Let Me Touch Him. Do the words Ministers and Touch Him sound wrong? Yes they are and it what makes this Christian album fail so much. It's unintentional humor. I'm surprised that nobody photoshopped this with Jerry Sandusky, Pedobear, Michael Jackson and Brian Peppers heads on the ministers heads.
  2. Colonel Sanders Tijuana Picnic. Actually Colonel Sanders isn't singing in this album due to it actually being a various artist's album. It's quite weird and just plain freaky. Also the picnic location doesn't look a bit like Tijuana Mexico. KFC needs to rerelease this badly.
  3. Come to My Party by Mrs. Mills.  First off Mrs. Mills I will not come to your party because judging by that cover of your album you seem to be very busy in your paperwork. Also She kinda looks like Bad Luck Brian's mother.
  4.Please Mr. Postman by The Singing Postman. This is not a joke. The Singing Postman existed in the UK back in the 60s and thankfully never sold an album in the USA. I can't get past the stupid gimmick of a Singing Postman, I'm sure he'd get over in the WWE if he were a professional wrestler. Also he's quite hideous.
  5. Jesus Use Me by The Faith Tones. If there is something that is easily recognized in the category of bad album art, this is a prime example of one. They all look like drag queens especially the one with glasses that looks like Jay Leno. What is with their hair? They all look like CVS employees.
  6. Joyce by Joyce Drake. If there happens to be a cult following in bad album art Joyce is example of one. There is a thread dedicated to finding her on a Prince fan forum. Don't believe me Google it.
  7. Ken By Request Only by Ken Snyder. This album was another Christian album that had a limited release. When I mean Limited it was sold only By Ken Snyder himself in his car. So he would carry these albums around with him in his car when he would go touring the country. Did I mention how awful the album artwork is?  Check out the epic stache and leisure suit.
  8. The Handless Organist Truly a Miracle of God by The Handless Organist. Ok I think we see a pattern with these Christian albums, they have bad album art 99.9% of the time. Anyway how can you play the organ with 2 stumps where your hands are? It's impossible.

  9. The Touch of God by The Simmons. This is a truly confusing album art. I cannot tell if it's an awkward family portrait or a bad Christian album art? Well somebody needs to call the fashion police on them and the Hairdo police.
Look What Ya Did You Little Jerk!
  10. Heaven's Hitman by Bruno Maltise. This is another Christian album that has bad album art. Why does the guy on the cover look so pissed off? He looks like Uncle Frank from Home Alone.
