The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 117

Today is La Mercè (the local festivity in Barcelona) so we are headed to the BAM Festival concerts. Excited to watch The Goon Sax (keep bringing Australian bands here!) and Lloyd Cole among others... if the rain allow us! So, in order to have a proper "warm-up" for this evening, what's better than a new round of our TOP TEN Jukebox? It's a pretty eclectic one, with stunning comebacks by beloved bands of this Blog as Honeyblood and The Holiday Crowd, plus many new finds (one courtesy of Pretty Olivia Records and another one thanks to the infinite great taste of Rafa Skam), so there's plenty to enjoy. And remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud page (Join Us!).

Stop Awful Covers 13

Not even in California you can hide from the artwork disasters. Here's another episode of our Awful Covers Series, several terrible examples of what musicians shouldn't allow to go on their album sleeves... 

ARTWORK ATROCITIES

Arctic Monkeys: Do I Wanna Know?

Not really terrible, but again (remember their "White Album"?) very very little effort

TEEN: Carolina EP

Good band, but just terribly worrying bad taste with the image chosen

Melt Yourself Down:  Melt Yourself Down
Indeed, someone's brain was melting down while doing this

Aye Nako: Unleash Yourself

I disagree, you shouldn't unleash such bad taste for a cover...

Twin Peaks: Sunken

Ok, I admit I just don't get what's the artwork about. Mr. David Lynch please?

Devo: Something Else for Everybody

Devo "have to do" freaky covers I know, but that awful?

The Polyphonic Spre: Yes, It's True

Horrendous image, pink fonts...Yes, it's true, that's an album cover...

 
We are Scientists: Something About You

No animals on covers should be a rule. Can you see why? Hard to find a better example

Cansei de Ser Sexy: Planta

That's what I call taking things "too literally"
