Which is Morrissey's worst album cover?

There have been quite a few comments (not all of them flattering) about the Swords cover. But how does it compare to the others?
So, a quick poll to establish the worst album cover (which has a photo of S Morrissey).
Here goes...

 

hmmmm

I wouldn't say 'Swords' sleeve photo is worst, but my least favourite Morrissey album cover.

Hopefully Morrissey's next release will have a nice photo.

 

Swords by a manchster mile

 

Viva hate is just so boring.

 

swords is a country mile behind... the rest

 

Maladjusted Reissue is the only one I honestly dislike. I think it's the pants.

(Excluding the original Southpaw of course, but I like to think that one's a given. After all, it wasn't one of the choices!)

 

Yes indeed, I don't like the horrible glazing on all of his recent releases but this is such a bad, structureless photograph to begin with.
Not that I'm fond of him swatting for a little cry or even Vauxhall's cover.

 

oops, clicked the wrong one. Maladjusted (original) si what a should have voted not kill uncle.

 

YOR because of the child and the awful airbrushing.
followed closely by original Maladjusted.

*shudders*

 

The original southpaw grammar, because it is rubbish and doesn't fit in with the rest of his solo releases.

 

^^^
I agree with this. 'Swords' is far from excellent, but I think the original 'Southpaw' has it beat in this case.

 

Maladjusted is pretty dire, but the Viva Hate reissue deserves a special mention for being that much worse than the original. Why did they bother?

 

:nicethread:....not

 

I've only really liked a few covers..VH,KU,YA..Malajusted is terrible.

 

Witgout question the original cover of Maladjusted.

It makes him look like he's aspiring to be a minor character in Friends.


cheers

 

Ouch

 

The original Maladjusted cover is crap, but I did really like the reissued version's new cover.

 

Other.

Original Southpaw was baaaaad.

 

Swords. Obviously.

 

Kill uncle is worst at all, IMO.

The set list could be save only for 4 songs.. but the cover is horrible....
I do believe that Moz wasn't inspired when he made this album.
I'm very glad that something like that never happened once again.
