30. Nine Inch Nails: 'The Slip' – The 2008 digital release from Trent Reznor and co. came with eerie artwork of a ghostly hand reaching for the shoulder of a man. Evocative of the freaky cover to Butthole Surfers' 1990 live album 'Double Live'.

did you not notice the fact that an african american is being beaten by police in the background, whilst the couple are enjoying their frivolities, (Lambchop Ohio by the way). So i think it has a bit more resonance than a nipple tweaking. Amazing choice though
