That Keyshia Cole cover is a contender for worst of the year, fo sho.

oooh, i like that

dexpresso (Z S), Sunday, 9 December 2012 00:23 (6 months ago) Permalink

Yeah that's cool. They used all of the colored markers.

That Gengras thing looks like a New Age album that would turn out to be really disappointing in the end.

endless budgie (GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ), Sunday, 9 December 2012 07:12 (6 months ago) Permalink

The Pitchfork best and worst lists are up. Honestly, the worst list is pretty mild compared to some of the stuff I've actually seen, and at least half of the best list could've just as easily been placed in the worst list.

Did they not peep our thread this year?

Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 17:19 (6 months ago) Permalink

Boner alert on the list of worst covers btw

Albert Crampus (NickB), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 17:25 (6 months ago) Permalink

So rush right over if you want to catch that

Albert Crampus (NickB), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 17:26 (6 months ago) Permalink

Paste put up their best list too, which is a really shitty selection:

Pretty shocked that a Paste list would have a shitty selection of anything.

HAPPY BDAY TOOTS (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 12 December 2012 18:35 (6 months ago) Permalink

re: Pitchfork best/worst album covers

I was glad to see the Lone album in the best of list because I think that's a really nice cover, but yeah, otherwise most of the best ones seemed like just the most popular Pitchfork albums as opposed to ones that had really nice design.

Enjoyed seeing the sad goths on the worst of list.

Moodles, Wednesday, 12 December 2012 22:08 (6 months ago) Permalink

haha remember when pfork posted the shop I did of Chris Brown's Graffiti with the blue bowtie from the Larry King interview in their "Worst Album Covers"?

The Reverend, Thursday, 13 December 2012 05:07 (6 months ago) Permalink

Jesus, they really could have some kind of warning about the boner cover. It just froze on it while the page was loading.

This cover is genuinely baffling to me - I honestly can't even imagine what it's trying to suggest:

Walter Galt, Thursday, 13 December 2012 10:41 (6 months ago) Permalink

Is that the new James Ferraro persona?

Number None, Thursday, 13 December 2012 11:27 (6 months ago) Permalink

Did you mean: 2k Hustle?

LOL

besides Sunny Real Estate (dog latin), Thursday, 13 December 2012 11:37 (6 months ago) Permalink

Not sure whether this is amazing or terrible:
