What is this supposed to be? It always looks like someone tonging a butthole, and the name implies eating ass is an acquired taste.

eating ass is an acquired taste though
its not like you tongue somebody's asshole one day and say "gee that tasted delicious!"

I disagree. That's probably Genesis' best cover.

it's a peach

>>71291416
what's even worse is that the peach isn't much wider than the tongue. which, fine, that's normal size for a peach. but when you're looking just at the front cover and it looks like a butt...that does not look like an adult butt.

Well, I think it's pretty good. It's pretty simple and straightforward, aesthetically pleasing, and more or less tells you what you need to know about the album's concept. What do you not like about it?

>>71291919
those are all good points. I guess to me it just looks like something you'd see on critique day in a college art 101 class. I'm starting to think it's just me, though. you're not the only person here who likes it significantly more than I do.

That's not a bad point, either. THLDoB's cover art was designed by Hipgnosis, whose quality was, admittedly, pretty hit-or-miss. On one hand, they designed the covers for The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and Strangers in the Night. On the other hand, they also designed the covers for Meddle (which, I should add, was originally supposed to be a close-up of a baboon's anus before the band unanimously told the artist that it was a terrible idea), Houses of the Holy, Going for the One, and this piece of trash.

lol the ELP 3-headed ettin

and yeah the meddle cover is kinda...idk. I sorta like it, but then I watched a lot of music videos in the 90s so maybe I'm just really used to vague blurry blobby shit.

I always thought that it was a picture of a galaxy but then someone told me it's an ear and it fucking ruined it
