The smart alecs over at Gigwise have put together a list of the year's worst album covers. We don't wanna spoil anyone's surprise, but we'll give you a few hints which one "won" the dubious honor. First hint: It was a long-awaited release. Second hint: If the artist catches wind of this, he'll probably threaten to punch the author of this list, but no punches will ever be thrown.
Other than that, the list is a fun mix-up of entries by respectable types like Bob Mould, laughingstocks like Vanilla Ice, and people who should have known better, like Sia.
And if anyone hasn't seen the strange UK cover of the Kings of Leon's latest, now's your chance to wonder what they were thinking.








Pretty funny album covers. The KoL's UK cover has me scratching my head.
