Salmonator. Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 No you know who had the worst album cover of 2009? 2 words Adam Lambert!NO. NO. AND NO.(I'm a hardcore Glambert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kekumba Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I agree. It's pretty fucking terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurora Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 oh my god, Joss Stone's album looks like something a graphics student would've whipped up and gotten a C grade on. hahaha, even the font for the album title is just so amateur.

norcalgreendayfan Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Pitchfork is a bunch of dumb arses. They clearly dont know what they are talking about. I rather liked the album cover for 21st century breakdown and think its one of the best of 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharmellow Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Jeezus, most of those albums were horrible! Especially Chris Brown and Dark Meat album cover. IDK, 21stCB was okay. Definitely not their best album art cover, that's for sure. Anyway, I could give a shit on what Pitchfork thinks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Stop hating of pitchfork despite the fact that they're hispters, that's just how record criticism goes. A lot of them are cocky assholes. But they do have a purpose, illuminating me with that donut cover, it's so ridiculous it's amazing. Chris Brown's cover reminds me of Snow White Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather! Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 All of those are SO terrible, how could they put 21CB on that list?I mean, it's definitely not my favorite Green Day album artwork, but I still really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longview_paradise Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I thought the cover was a good piece of art! Not as strong as American Idiot's art (which seemed to be everywhere), but it still had a nice concept none the less. Graffiti styles are pretty safe artistic-wise. It's not that creative and it seems to be the "go to" for artists. That and the freakin grunge brush... so overused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parinaz Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 WHAT? why Pitchfork is always acting bad to Green Day??the album cover was nominated in best album covers on Art Vinyl 2009.and what are the best album covers? I'd thought that Pitchfork is so classy and reliable till I found Life in technicolor II and lady gaga's video in best music videos list. R.I.P. Pitchfork.

Mar Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Pitchfork is just so fucking pretentious, I can't deal with them.I still think AI is their best cover, but I like 21CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxboro Hot Tubs Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 21st CB had not my favorite cover but it's definitely not that bad ... well, that's just ridiculous ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Disappearing Boy Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 lets be honest, greenday have better album covers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daughter.of.Rage.and.Love Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Mm, I didn't like the cover so much when I first saw, it but I definitely got more fond of it after hearing the album. It's not one of their best covers, but it isn't very bad or anything and doesn't deserve to be in that list.And for sure not on the same page as those other covers, some of them are horrific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juliette Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I like it. And it actually has relevance to the songs as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 It's not my favorite GD album cover, but it's definitely not a worst cover of 2009. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metanoia Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 wtf ?!?!? as I first saw the cover I was fucking blown away !!!!!!!1those other covers are bad right but I really dont get what should be bad about the 21st cb cover :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbie Head Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 It's not THAT bad.. But It's one of my least favorites from GD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nele Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Well, when i first saw the cover I really didn't like it too.But yeah, the other covers on the list are way worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katarina. Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Whatever.I really like the cover. Idk about you guys, but when I first saw it I was like: WTF is this? It made me even more curious what the album would sound like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peace and Rainbows Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Well it is not the bestBut it was certaintly the best looking cover on the listWhere was U2s no line on the horizon...wait that was last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purple helix Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Well, green day aren't really about the art, are they. Music before image. Suits me!Having said that, I liked the cover, but I don't know shit about art.Some guy in the paper was commenting that the recent explosion of graffiti-type art is going to look as bad in 10-20 years time as the airbrushed unicorns of the 80s do these days. I can see how that could happen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikki_Nimrod Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 LOL, some of those covers were god awful But besides the fact that it's Pitchfork writing this, i'm quite surprised 21CB is on here. I love the cover, it's such a powerful image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
