Satellite Party shocks the world!!

I don't necessarily hope it wins, but...I voted for Satellite Party, too. I know the Nuge™ deserves to fulfill his year-long destiny and all, and the cover is truly vile, but I've been hating Perry Farrell's post-Jane's druggie-hippie vibe for years now, and he deserves a smackdown for keeping up the bullshit. It's almost, like, personal for me.

So: Nuge FTW, but Perry so deserves to be here.

The Duke - Kansas final is kind of anticlimactic, after all the run-up. I really found myself pulling for Gonzaga / Helalyn Flowers after losing my longshot favorite UT-Chattanooga / PJ Olsson last week.

Anywho, congrats Nuge, ya big misguided blowhard. You earned it.

I found this much harder than expected. I've been voting for the smurf-faced Farrell for so long and Nuge's misogyny and now, how to choose? HOW TO CHOOSE?

Yeah, it's Nugent.

Here's the grand prize ... Parry Farrell will design Nuge's next cover. We all win.

Bon appetit!

Sorry .. Perry.

Are most of Farrell's votes from those who've been fantasizing about shoving a grenade into a terrified naked woman's mouth?

Crank That Nuge

The thing is that the Satellite Party one is bad, but you know that at least 100, maybe 1000 albums came out this year that are bad for the exact same reasons and in the exact same way. Bad trippy album covers have existed for as long as LSD has been convincing inept people that they have "design sense." However, Nugent's cover is just transcendantly bad. It's worse than the original cover of "Smell The Glove." It's a Wonder Showzen joke rendered in real life. It is the key to healing a wounded nation's heart.

I was kind of pulling for Helalyn Flowers too, the scrappy little underdog that came from nowhere. Oh well, Final Four is nothing to be ashamed of. Now... someone out there has gone and listened to that Helalyn nonsense, right? Just out of intellectual curiosity? Out of a desire to see if fire is really hot and knives are actually sharp? Report back, please, for those of us too cowardly to venture there.

I voted for Perry just to be contrarian.

The Nugent cover is lame in exactly the way he has been lame for 25 years. Yawn.

I hate Nugent's politics, personality, and most of his music (OK, Stranglehold is kinda fun), and this cover makes me wanna puke. Whereas Perry and his album art are just annoying. Congratulations Nuge, you're the suckiest dude of 2007!

@Recury: Only 25?

"Satellite Party", because sometime during the Final Four, I became convinced that Farrell's wife used a Topsy Tail on her pigtails. We all expect musical necrophilia from the man, but I draw the line at homages to cosmetic infomercial culture of yore.

Really, though, was there any doubt these two would face off? The only question is, since they will battle in a battle where there can be no winner, WHO WILL WIN?

@drjayphd: I think Ted Nugent wins either way. He needs approval way less than almost anyone else on earth.

there are no winners here. still, perry's "art" is more offensive than the nuge by a nudge.
