The Bloodbuzzed Jukebox Week 159

Surreal times, folks. Personal celebrations, with a most-welcomed "re-encounter" included, alongside with hospital visits and a political national scenario that really looks like a terrible, bad, gross, supposedly funny movie. Thanks music for helping us not to being schizophrenic, here's a new round of our  TOP TEN Jukebox, as diverse as awesome, coming a bit later than usual (we insist, crazy week), but ready to cheer-up your Sunday, thanks to friends like our beloved The Luxembourg Signal, or the "re-invention" of the great 'George Best' by The Wedding Present, as well as new discoveries like Colombian artist Loyal Lobos or New Zealanders Grawlixes. Take care and remember, all songs are available at our Soundcloud. (Join Us!)

Stop awful album covers 2

It was bound to happen. Unfortunately, is a growing epidemic: horrible music artworks keeps spreading. This second round of visual disasters are all from albums/singles released this 2011, and wants to serve as an act of protest against them. This is war, stop awful sleeves!

ARTWORK ATROCITIES

Tennis: Cape Dory

Done on purpose, I know, but it's a crime to give a beautiful record such a kitsch sleeve

Beirut: The Rip Tide / Arctic Monkeys: Suck It and See

Put the albums together cause its the same case: brilliant works, zero effort on the cover

 Destroyer: Ideas for Songs (reissue) / Morrissey: Very Best of Morrissey

And they go together because... you get it. Great to know you are relaxing guys, but do we need to see it?

Lady Gaga: Born This Way

Photoshop indigestion + worst of metal clichés= Gaga's next chapter of awfulness

Peter Bjorn and John: Gimme Some
Coherency must be this: colour, design, image are all ugly. Ironic, of course

Vivian Girls: Share the Joy
Very little effort usually translates into a very poor artwork....


Steve Miller Band: Let Your Hair Down
....But sometimes a lot of effort in a cover can have an insane result 

Wavves: TV Luv Song (single)

And to end the "monsters parade"... this... What the hell?? Carl Winslow? Really??
