The Art of Ugly Covers 2021

There was a time when 12 inches by 12 inches record covers were everywhere: This mixed art form of still life, snapshot and self-marketing was a key factor for whether a long-playing record flopped or became a top seller – and if it went really well, it could even become an icon. Classic images of the past include the covers for The Beatles album "St. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", the Sex Pistols disc "Never Mind the Bollocks" or the Nirvana classic "Nevermind".
