@Lokimotive: Does anyone know someone from this band, even like someone who just likes them, I just want the fan take on that cover, like it's secret message?

That's Perry's wife. I think.

But no, while Helalyn Flowers is bad, it's bad in the same slightly confused manner that almost any gothy-industro-electro-pop-whatever record is, just Photoshop wankery and some angst. That Satellite Party cover on the other hand, revels in it's awfulness, like pigs in shit. It's bad ALIEN Photoshopping and it CANNO'T BE STOPPED!

Satellite Party really deserves the ire it’s gotten, but it has a certain surreal psychedelic charm. Helalyn Flowers, however, just continues to infuriate me because I can’t figure out what the fuck is going on. Initially I thought it was a sort of metal sausage, but now it appears to be a metallic lollipop. Neither option makes me happy.

i couldn’t decide if perry farrell or the she-creature in front of him looks scarier. i mean, on the one hand he’s blue, which means he might be the living dead (or just the dead dead) in which case he’s kinda spooky. but what’s she got going for her? she’s imaginary? she took the wrong bus to Feriatown? she’s the undead supervixen from virtual reality demonstration videos circa ’92? jeez. this girl needs an image consultant, pronto.

Ugh, the colors of "Perry Farrell's Satellite Party- Ultra Payloaded" match the groupie's hair and Perry's skin!

But Helalyn Flowers... grabbing a spatula and ramming some metal in their mouths. To the finals they should go.

@StuntKockSteeev: And apparently, I'm too much of a moron to figure out how to hyperlink.

Aside from being a complete retina-fuck, Perry also loses for jacking a font from a four year old [url="http://www.amazon.com/Beauty-Party-Majesticons/dp/B00007GOV8/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=music&qid=1198535725&sr=1-4"]Nerd Rap[/url] record.

Satellite Party winning here feels like an upset to me.

His cover is so much less inexplicable and confounding!

And yet, his victory seems assured.

@GovernmentNames: Everybody has their own opinion.
I say Helalyn Flowers.

I don’t know…the heart-shape implied by the revolver things and dude’s finger is pretty bad. I was rooting for Satellite Party from the beginning but I think I have to switch sides.

Perry Farrell’s fall from grace won my vote.

Wow… Tough call, but I had to go with Satellite Party for it’s cheesy 70′s Repeat-O-Font in the title.
