The Feederz - "Ever Feel Like Killing Your Boss?"
It had sandpaper on the cover so that it would scratch the covers of any albums stored next to it! Yay!

Why were you snooping around your bosses office? Does he know you were in there?

First saw this one on an ILM thread and it still startles me - I've never seen such a mix of colours on any other album, ever. It reminds me of something a gifted 11-year old might create with water paints in 6th grade art class. (That's a compliment.)
― Myonga Vön Bontee, Friday, 22 August 2008 05:06 (seventeen years ago)
I've been thinking a "best Fall cover art" poll is in order. Or "worst Fall cover art." Its so hard to decide which is which.
