  • Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Below is the brilliant cover to James' new album 'Hey Ma', the artwork that has inspired us to make this gallery. A poignant image of an innocent baby choosing between a handgun and his toys, advertising agencies have given it a wide berth. However, if you find this shocking, be warned of what is to come: Nudity, violence, macabre gore and other such things - here is our 50 most controversial and shocking covers of all time! Be warned, further into the gallery (from about 20 downwards) some of the images are not for the feint hearted! We did warn you!!

  • The figure in the Ministry cover is clearly wearing a ”Dunce” hat - which fits in with the school room theme!! Why would americans jump to the conclusion that it’s a KKK hat? is it because they realise that the KKK are their dirty little secret they still haven’t been able to do anything about!!!

  • The list is missing Maniak XXX’s ’Havesting The Cunt Nectar’. But then again, that really is too sick to show the general public!
