I'm not a big fan of what I would call an homage to David Lynch. I can't really see why you would put a guy wearing a horse head, dressed in an Old West wedding gown and holding a shot gun while sitting on a rocking chair with work boots on his feet on the cover of an album.
It definitely won't be the worst album cover of the year, but I wouldn't call this one good.

Correct, but it was just put up on a Blog site and I'm guessing the vast majority of people are not familiar with it. Plus, we tend to be a board that allows for late discoveries of albums.

And even if it doesn't fully meet the stringent parameters, somebody had to start this thread. It at least added some musical discussion to this board last year.

Ask and ye shall receive.

I don't think it is that bad. It reminds me of an old 70's album cover befitting Genesis or Pink Floyd.

I like how Midlake album covers clue you in on how listless and boring their music is.

Does Patrick Wolf have an album coming out this year? Because this entire thread is a waste if he is.

Come on, we've got to do worse than that. Mediocrity doesn't make this thread very interesting.
