Seriously Weird Album Titles!

In homage to Kasabian's 'West Rider Pauper Lunatic Asylum'...

According to HMV.co.uk, Kasabian's upcoming third album goes by the completely and utterly stark-raving-bonkers title of 'West Rider Pauper Lunatic Asylum'.

This got us thinking of our favourite weird-as-shit album titles from down the echelons of time. Here they are below in all their glory!
