40. PJ Olsson: 'American Scream' – We've seen some weird album covers over the years, but this ranks amongst the worst/best of them. A giant flying cherub presumably about to pick his nose with the Empire State building whilst flanked by smaller angels, it's a car crash of an album cover that's also strangely beguiling.

- Lindsey Buckingham released an excellent album this year (Gift of Screws), but the artwork is terrible. Should be on this list...
- i like the Chinese Democracy artwork
- huh, chinese democracy has a fantastic album cover....based on the name of the album, it fits perfectly. and i'm not even a fan
- i have to agree, Chinese Democracy's album cover suits the album very well, its a masterpiece
Chinese Democracy's cover is totally alright, one who chose it for the bad covers chart probably didn't even listen to the album.
