Some of them made me laugh. Where is Broken Hope's Swaped In Gore? That cover was pretty gorey. CC is a good choice though.

Some of those were pretty funny. Although, the absolute GORIEST album covers would be pretty much anything on Unmatched Brutality Records (http://www.unmatchedbrutality.com).

Of course, not even the covers on UB records could possibly top the Phil Collins cover in terms of sheer gore and brutality. :dio:

Wow, haha...porno-grind or whatever is ridiculous...

On a side note, I saw the Deathspell Omega/Moonblood split on there for $10 o_0

Some of those choices are silly. Electriclarryland more gory than Will To Kill? The Beatles? :D The Naked City one's rather cool.

Gore never really shocks me anymore, although Waco Jesus' album covers are beyond horrific.

Haha, I read bout this yesterday on Blabbermouth. Was goin through the slides but due to my condition (I'm allergic to gore), I stopped at the first picture I saw. I think it was Malevolent Creation.

EDIT: Well I finally braved myself to go through the pics. I don't get the Phil Collins thingy.....and at number 19? Exhumed's was far worse.

Allergic to gore? You mean it makes you feel sick?

Well I used the term 'allergic' because I'm not sure of the exact word to use. But yeah, Zad, I get a little bit sick seeing gory stuff. And I've fainted on several occasions watching actual 'death videos' like the beheading videos and those motorcar accidents with the bodies ending up very much like mashed potatoes. My buddies make a real ass of me when I tell them about this, even my girlfriend, and it's worse being a metalhead. But I never had qualms telling them the truth.....it's better. Sometimes I even pass out when some one explains about a very gory accident. I'm quite an imaginative person and I literally imagine what happened, and before you know it, you'll hear a lour thud and I'm on the floor.

I'm just disturbed by gory images (pictures), I'll feel a bit sick. But if there's a video of how it happened, I stay away from it. So far the CC artwork and Exhumed covers are a little bit ok for me. Just don't show me the footages of how those Exhumed covers were made. :lol:

I know what you're on about, just making certain. There are a couple of people like that I know. Hope it's never caused real problems for you...

The Phil Collins cover was put in as a joke.

::Damn, I just ruined it::

Problems? Not really. Pain? A lot. I always crash my head on the floor and it hurts so badly. I once went to a Kreator gig with a huge scar over my right eye because I passed out the night befor.

That wasn't so bad. Two years ago I passed out walking out of a restaurant, right in front of all the patrons. I went face down onto the tar road. When I woke up, my mouth was bleeding. That's when I realised when I crashed, my face hit mouth first, with my upper (front) tooth tearing into my lower lip. The tooth chipped and I had a hole in my lower lip. I could poke my tongue through the hole. Yuck. I needed 6 stitches on the inside and 10 stitches on the outside. Plus the local hospital I went to thought my case was not so serious and delayed me for 6 hours. There was stab wound victim needing an abdominal operation pronto. Then when they finally attended to me, they said "Oh, pass out? Without any proper reason? We need to admit you to the observatory ward for 6 hours." So I practically waited for 12 hours until I had my stitches done. The only thing that consoled me was the dentist who stitched me up was sweet and charming :wub:

Didn't get her number though, was too embarrassed :sad:

One night when i was a little boy, me and my parents was watching a tv program about some negros in the bush. One of them negros got a head surgery, where a medicin guy took a knife and cut a cross on top of her head so her skull became visible and then he took a razor started to scratch in her skull. And *bump*... my father was no longer in his rocking-chair, cuz he was lying on the floor. A 37-years-old guy passing out in front of a 10-years-old boy due to a little blood... tsk tsk :D .. of course, it wasn't that funny at the time, my mother though he had died.

That's typical Implaed.

Their 'Mondo Medicale' cover had a huge "Banned in 84 Countries" label over it. I'm not sure if that is true, but it's quite clear how disgusting they can be. Cool band, though.

"Humanure" made me giggle!! :lol:

I've never liked this cover very much. Don't ask me why. I'm a huge horror fan, I love nasty graphic stuff, but for some reason this disturbs me a bit.
