The Greatest Cover Art Of All Time.

[probablyoliver]

So the cream of the crop of the dregs of American independent music have gathered together to release a Cure tribute album, ranging from absolutely shit to absolutely glorious. It has the greatest cover art of all time ever. If you disagree, you're wrong.

I mean, seriously, what?

Well I guess it's cheaper to hire a 14 year old with a passing knowledge of photoshop....

[probablyoliver]

That's the thing, it's not even a passing knowledge. That's a paint job if ever I saw one. WHY IS THERE A TAP ON ONE OF THE CATS!? IT MAKES NO LOGICAL SENSE!

is it intentional?

I GOOGLE'd it to see if it was true, and it was, so I facepalm'd until my nose bled.

MS Paint-infleunced art is kinda popular these days... don't ask me why.

I didn't know what you were referring to, so I did some research and apparently it was used as the cover of a bootleg album. So you could post it. So could I, in fact. It's very good, anyway.

[Skummy]

SORRY ABOUT THE MESS.

[New Damage]

Clearly.

Christ, some spoilers tags or some kind of a warning would be nice. I'm not terribly squeamish, but I'd like to have been forewarned.

Anyway, we've done this thread about 8000 times before, which is silly really because the winner will always be:
