Say all you want—you can’t go wrong with art. Even if it’s bad, you can still appreciate the effort, the amount of time and talent it took, and other aspects. Even getting to a point where it’s so bad, it’s good becomes an art form in and of itself in that sense.
Consider music album covers: there is a certain kind of approach to album cover art, yet folks still manage to create something that makes you scratch your head. For any reason. Calling it bad would be wrong because at least you can laugh about it, and bad doesn’t make you laugh. It’s still good. Right?
So, with that said, scroll down to have some laughs at questionable album cover art, as seen on the Bad Record Covers page.

So, there’s this page on X as well as Facebook that’s all about sharing, let’s just say, very questionable album art. It doesn’t have to be bad, it doesn’t have to be weird, heck, it even doesn’t have to be flat out are you seeing this [shirt]? But it can. And often is at least one of that, but bad is just a matter of taste.
The page has been around for nearly 10 years now and amassed nearly 30,000 followers since its launch in December of 2013. However, two years ago, it announced that the page had run its course and that it was fun while it lasted. There was a seemingly brief return as per nostalgia, sharing some of the older stuff and considering a resurrection of the page, but it's been radio silence since then.

As you’ve probably understood by now, the page shares old album cover art that asks more questions than it answers. These are typically albums from older generations of music, back when deliberate posing while mom snaps a picture in your living room, your backyard or with a view of the creek outside your house was considered the bees knees. And while the '60s-'80s aesthetic (maybe even '90s) has aged well for the most part, there’s this other entire contingent of wow album art that we just can’t help but appreciate, but not for the usual reasons as it aged as well as the economy.

Honestly,,, it's grandma's dining room chair that pulls this one together.
So, what makes an album cover bad? Let’s flip this around and start from what makes it good.
An article on Creative Review explains that the music on the album as well as what the album looks like physically have a symbiotic and vital relationship. While a record becomes famous because of the music on it, there can’t be an album without a cover. And it doesn’t really have to be anything—it just has to be there. It’s the first contact people have when looking up songs.

Divine Disco

Christian Rock. Christian Metal. But Christian Disco is a new one for me.
And while there is a claim that cover art can elevate the brand of the musician, it can go the other way too—the music can elevate the album artist. By proxy, folks speculate that it can go the other way—if one is bad, the other can become tainted by it.
Folks on a “music nerds” subreddit—one for a music critic named Fantano—have raised this question. The general consensus is the above statement, but bad albums can have good art. However, because of the little attention bad albums get, the artwork gets forgotten just as fast. And good albums, even if their art is bad, tend to still make it memorable.

One Redditor in the same thread pointed out that Radiohead’s The Benders album is great, but the album cover art is oof. They’ve seen bad albums with better cover art than that.
Others, however, were quick to joke about it and it’s a question of if it’s actually that bad or just a little bit. One thing’s for sure—The Benders does have a very meme-like aesthetic.

The conclusion most reach when it comes to what makes album art bad is the sheer fact of it being not fit for what the album is. It can be too weird, cringe or cursed, plain or uninspired, poorly photographed or crafted, inappropriate for what the album stands for (thematically or content-wise) or, if it doesn’t fit any other criteria, it’s all a matter of taste. And that includes poor taste, but that already alludes to the above.

The Title Says It All
David 2 years ago
I was curious and did some googling. Apparently this is Pauline Oliveros & Randy Raine-Reusch. You'd never know it from their look but apparently both were into experimental music. Both can be found on Youtube. If you are a Hearts of Space fan, Pauline's stuff has quite the HOS vibe. == "Pauline Oliveros (May 30, 1932 – November 24, 2016) was an American composer, accordionist and a central figure in the development of post-war experimental and electronic music." === "Raine-Reusch has recorded with Pauline Oliveros, Deep Listening Band, Aerosmith, The Cranberries, Yes, Raffi, David Amram, Jon Gibson, Jin Hi Kim, and Henry Kaiser as well with as his own intercultural quartet, ASZA. He has performed with a wide range of artists including: Aerosmith, Robert D**k, Mats Gustafsson, Barry Guy..."
And that’s pretty much what Bad Record Covers is all about. You've got inappropriate wording, Christian cringe, sponsored albums, trying to be relatable, being too self-aware, just being too much in general, and you don’t even know how funny this one really is. A lot of it is religious, family, or a product of its time. The rest is something that we all wish we could have listened to in order to bring context as to why we’re laughing.

Another side of what might make album art bad (or good, depending on how you look at it) is the controversy that it spurs. And there are a lot of examples in history.
These can include album covers that display explicit nudity and sexuality, takes a taboo spin on religion, glorifies violence or flat out infringes on copyright. Other themes in album cover art that can get flak are politics, tobacco, cultural offense, plagiarism and indecency.

Alice Cooper’s Love It to Death (1971) is one that stirred quite a bit of controversy as the original art featured Cooper himself sticking a finger out of his zipper, making it look like a part of him is exposed, but later versions airbrushed it out.
Slayer’s Christ Illusion (2006) takes a jab at religion, specifically Christianity by portraying Jesus Christ as a zombie all the while body parts are scattered around the figure.
There are also more tame cases, like Richard Pryor’s self-titled album from 1968 which featured Pryor himself in the style of a National Geographic cover. He later got 2 letters about it—one from NG suing him for defamation and the other from the Grammy awards nominating the album for best cover.

Looking back, Jeanette Krankie dressing up as a little boy was a bit weird... also, fun fact: my old boss thought "Fandabidozi" was Mr T's catchphrase. That's right, she confused Wee Jimmy Krankie with Mr T. HOW?

There is also no truth to the rumour that Jeanette Krankie later became leader of the Scottish National Party, and Scottish First Minister . . .

Well, I will were under voted but I don't care. You have a lack sense common, like youngters here that wear flip flops with socks and pajamas pants here. I think is trending, but man for God sake you seems an idiot and you go with that to school. Idiotic behaviour. Down vote me if you want, I don't buy that s**t, may be I'm old

The title is Turkish and means "The Price of our Love". I just don't know what that has to do with doing the splits in a karate outfit.

Something Good Is About To Happen? I'm Not So Sure
Kelly H. Wilder 2 years ago
This song is such an iconic song in the denomination I grew up in. It perpetuated the toxic positivity that people were expected to live out. Either the idea that God only loved you if you were happy, healthy, and wealthy or the flipside of that, that if you only loved God enough you would be happy, healthy, and wealthy. Instead of the hope the song is supposed to offer it is just another cog in the wheel of the distortion of reality.
