Wow! Never noticed that, that just made the cover better for me, lol!

FFX was good, tho I think FFXIII is the best of the post VII era

Mia's cover sucks so bad, her shit is always bad too - she's a self-proclaimed "graphic artist" herself and I think I read that one of the covers she did herself. I wouldn't be surprised if she had done them all. They all suck.

Anidea isn't that bad actually, but that list is pretty legit for the most part

I think some of you lads are taking this far too seriously. They're obviously doing it in jest. Some of those albums were rated highly on Pitchfork, so it's nothing against the music like some of you are suggesting.

i agree pitchfork is cringe! but the album could defiantly have been designed better for the music on it
