On scented vinyl no less.

I don't know what of. I don't think I want to know.

New page vinyl sniffer.

I shall double check.

Yes it is scratch and sniff. I overcame my fear and a quick check was unable to ascertain what it's supposed to be. Beef and Onions?

Crabwalk

Erasmo Carlos released some brilliant records, but I'm not having this one in the house.


NoSleep

It's already been in this thread though.

holyzombiejesus

Yes, you fucking idiot. Fancy not checking back over 90+ pages to check if that sleeve had already been posted.

Crabwalk

I love Blondie but fucking hell.



Incidentally, their worst album and probably one of the worst I've sat through.

Blimey, I was joking. Vinyl that has to be scratched to give off a smell; that wasn't designed to be played many times.

holyzombiejesus

It's the sleeve that's scratch and sniff.

I was misled. That's not scented vinyl.

the vinyl is laced with the stink of regret

Yeah, see what he's done there.  Lazy.

That's the new album, not The Who's 542,451 Greatest hits release, where that would have been acceptable. Not good, acceptable.


Actually even this 1980s barrel scraping exercise is still better


H-O-W-L

Nominating Reality by Bowie. I don't care if it has some metaphysical meaning, it's fucking awful to look at.

This one has always remind me of a screenshot from a Crunchie chocolate bar ad.

Just remembered this load of shite:

My word. Seeing that made me Google The Twang to see what they're up to these days. They somehow haven't split up and are still signed. Also, they're supporting Shed Seven on their "Shedcember" tour, which includes a date at the 13,000 capacity Leeds Arena.

How the fuck are Shed Seven filling a venue that size in 2019?!

An appropriation of these Sarah Lucas photographs https://www.mutualart.com/Artwork/4-Works---Get-off-your-Horse-and-Drink-y/4F061514DB8C439D

That doesn't let it off the hook (I recognise that you're not claiming it does).  An appropriation of terrible art makes for a terrible album cover.

It'll probably be like Queens Park at home at Hampden. Hopefully.

How does a band go from covers as classy, restrained and timeless as CS&N/Eponymous, Deja Vu and CSN to an abomination like that?  Ditto The Band; from the greatness of the 'Big Pink and 'The Brown Album' covers to this:
