I'm working an article for my site about sleazy album covers but I'm a bit stumped. I'm specifically looking for covers from the 80s era of hair & sleaze.

So far, all I can think of is the original Slippery When Wet, Great White's Down On Your Knees, and Scorpions' Animal Magnetism (Lovedrive as well). I've been digging for images online, but there's not exactly a database for this (I don't think Smile ).

Of course, credit will be given to anyone who points me in the right direction.

What about Scorpion's "Virgin Killer"? If that ain't sleaze - I don't know what is!!!

Uncle Slam - Heaven or Hollywood? I never heard of that record. I thought When God Dies was their last release?

Some were already mentioned here, but there's a few others.

I never knew Pantera's original cover art was that sick atrocity! I don't see why the Poison one was censored? Gene Simmons walks around doing that same tongue gesture in real life.

The Mentors' album covers define "sleazy"...

Thanks, guys!

I think Great White's 'On Your Knees' is one of my favorite album covers of all time.

Yea, I never really understood the Poison one either. I guess it was just the record company being overly-sensitive in the height of the PMRC-days. I believe that the remasters have the orginal cover restored.

If you think the Pantera one is bad, look up the thread for bad album covers and find Type O Negative's Origin of the Feces (just not when you're eating)

Laughing very hard I apologize in advance for ever posting that Type O cover.

The "cencored" Bon Jovi cover I know I've seen on vinyl. Maybe on a single release?

And the Pantera one my friend has on his Pantera longsleeve shirrt, albeit with different colors.

Hmm, the more I look at those censored covers, I'm thinking this is some sort of US censor. I know most of them were released in Europe.

Absolutely. Most, if not all of these are exclusively United States censors. Who knows what some kid might do if he saw a hint of breast or a whisp of pubic hair on an album cover. Luckily these things were shielded from us and the US is now a perfect country.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys, I've also found a bit more myself. I'm looking to use them all in a future installment.

Here's the link to the article if you'd like to read it. Don't be shy about leaving a comment either. Smile
