Brooklyn band Type O Negative were forced to change their album artwork to a green and black image of dancing skeletons after the close-up of a sphincter, reportedly that of lead singer Peter Steele, unsurprisingly caused controversy. (We%u2019ve tastefully edited out the offending arsehole.)
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!!
