of this as an album cover?

I mean, does it intrigue you? Would you buy it? How do you think the band contained within would sound?

I ask because my bandmate and I are having... disagreements about the cover, so I want more people's opinion on this to back me up.

So please?

A hairy nipple with band name and album title sharpie'd around it.

...

SHIT YEAAAAAH

One of my girls: "Mmhmm

"

Me: No. It's rare I buy anything based on the album cover. Though I'd most definitely double-take, all, "holy shit nipple!" and then wonder what weird shit this band does. If it was a nipple with a logo, it would sound like a sex-oriented band. The Sharpie writing instead puts it out as a little more of an off-colour band with more interesting music.

I would not buy that.

Please, please put it on vinyl.

The idea is pretty punx and definitely something that would catch my attention/increase the likelihood that I buy the record.

However, your nipple is ugly. Get someone else's nipple.

I like the idea. I want the nipple to be more centered, and the band name and album title to be better.

Man, sometimes I avoid music because of the album cover.

Shoot, that's probably why I've never listened to an Acid Mothers Temple album.

It looks like a cross between a nipple and a wound. The latter was what I immediately thought it was. This is not a good thing. Personally I don't like the idea but I can see how it would be potentially intriguing. You'd have to make some pretty dirty (not in a sexual way) sounding music for it to work though.

It looks like the very tit has been tugged...
I would buy this with a more beautiful nipple. It's bold, certainly, but it's off-putting...

Way to contribute to years of this dude's insecurity about his ugly nipple.

Harun · « **Reply #11 on:** 19 May 2009, 21:03 »

change the hue/saturation so that it's purple skin with a green nipple and you might have something...

MadassAlex · « **Reply #12 on:** 19 May 2009, 21:14 »

Use seven dicks.

Honesty, sir, is the best of policies.

Koremora · « **Reply #14 on:** 19 May 2009, 22:13 »

Well, I say it is a FINE nipple! A nipple to be aspired to! Hoo-rah to your nipple, sir! Hoo-rah indeed!

Johnny C · « **Reply #15 on:** 19 May 2009, 22:28 »

If the music inside isn't really scuzzy noise rock though you have a problem.

De_El · « **Reply #16 on:** 19 May 2009, 23:29 »

It looks pretty pop-punk to me. It's the handwriting.

Speak for yourself, I'm only ever interested in even numbers.

Totally, but I'd still not buy it.

Bingo. Kind of.

Thanks for all of the opinions. I used that nipple on purpose, to kind of blend with the whole 'Freake part of the title. As far as I can tell it has just grossed a lot of people out though.

BeoPuppy · « **Reply #20 on:** 20 May 2009, 07:02 »

From all those descriptions and comments I get the feeling that I ought to be mighty glad that most pictures don't get displayed on my work PC.

Caspian · « **Reply #21 on:** 29 May 2009, 06:09 »

It seems like the sort of thing that would make me interested, but definitely in a sort of "do a curiousity download, listen, then delete from computer" type way.

imapiratearg · « **Reply #22 on:** 29 May 2009, 08:36 »

It's definitely punk rock, feels kind of half-assed, and doesn't seem very appealing. I mean, I'd go: "Hahah, nipple. That's awesome." I may or may not pick it up based on the cover, though.

Zingoleb · « **Reply #23 on:** 29 May 2009, 11:56 »

The hole of your nipple stares into the very depths of my soul.

öde · « **Reply #24 on:** 29 May 2009, 11:59 »

I would buy it, but only to put it out of it's misery.
