WTF is that?! "Repulsive Minus album art."
- Artists:
- Mínus »
An unsuspecting Drowned in Sound was working its way through a normal looking batch of overnight emails this morning, when something gruesome jumped out at us.
THAT'S AN EIGHT YEAR OLD BOY
Why, One Little Indian press employee, were you compelled to fill my computer with such hideous atrocity as this? Because Icelandic hardcore act Minus have a new album out on the 3rd of March? And The Great Northern Whalekill sees the band confronting two issues that are important to them, those being obesity and whaling? And the booklet's "even worse"? And you want to sell copies of this album?
More on this when we get it - including a fair chance for the band to have their say - but for now we may as well purge and roll out all the worst album covers music has to offer for the world to see. DiScuss, I guess.

Pantera Reference!
YEAH!
yeah man
i hate fat people too. they should all be put in a ghetto or something.
I was in a bar
in Iceland a year or so ago and the singer from minus was DJing. A friend of his told us that he's now obsessed with making a "prog" record and that the new album (which I guess this must be) is going to be more along the lines of "halldor laxness", albeit more proggy, rather than "jesus christ bobby".
This bloke might've been lying through his teeth though. But the singer was DJing all manner of "weird shit."
Hard to say really...
I'd say it's slightly more hardcore, in places, than the last album but also they've gone a bit experimental at times aswell. Then there's a few mellow bits thrown in for good measure, so it's got a bit of variety in there. It's a solid album though and I doubt it'll disappoint anyone who's already a fan!
that dude has got assss
in other news i quite like the cover, the picture at least. Some nice colour tones going on
listen
People need to get over the image and listen to the bloody music!!!
