This is the one

There's been a whitewash in the media over the past couple days over what the U.S.'s role in the world is, and the fact that they kill hundreds of thousands of people per year to protect profit. Now how can I get to the point where I could be saying that on the world stage, and interrupt the lies that CBS, CNN, NBC, and everyone is saying? In my view, that [would be] by keeping the cover. Not because I think by looking at the cover you get all of this message that I'm telling you, but as a way to have a platform to interrupt the stream of lies that are being told right now.

waow-based

The maid in the background really ties this one together

this takes me back to psychedelic mushroom forums circa 2012

dunno if it goes harder but i've always thought the cover for It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back went hard

the small text at the bottom is the Frederick Douglass quote 'freedom is a road seldom traveled by the multitude' over and over

Is that Himmler tied up in the background?

might be cheating, but you got to pay respect to the king

His music and album art was something else entirely, but (and I'm not savvy enough with content warnings to completely warn people)...

He allegedly held and abused a woman in his garage for years

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

wow I did not know that. I assumed he wasn't a particularly great guy anyway, but that is way beyond anything I imagined he was involved in.

I own this one. It's survived a few waves of cutting back my collection, too, lol

"Oktubre - Patricio Rey y los Redonditos de Ricota" (1986).

Also, this timeless gem:

"Ritmo y Sustancia - Mala Fama" (2000).

One before the end of the URSS, the other during one of the highest points of neoliberal policy in Argentina.

Damn, this just usurped Hell Is Real for my favorite album cover.

I'm willing to bet that literally none of you know what this album is.

Man staring at dried fish in an aquarium

The cover references the title song of the album "The dry ones are best but there are more of the wet ones", a song about stealing dried fish.
