Well, the weeks of polling are over, and we have a winner in our first annual Worst Album Cover Of The Year Tournament. Before you click through, feel free to reflect on our final eight, and check out a late-arrival cover that should at least get some sort of honorable mention. OK, the suspense is killing you, right? Right?
Congratulations, Eagle Records art department! Be on the lookout for your Spirograph sometime in the next seven to 10 business days. And for all of you who stuck with us over these weeks of voting and who aren't very surprised by this outcome (but hey, at least you learned who Helalyn Flowers is), here's a, uh, "treat": the cover for Love Grenade's Japanese edition:
So many not-very-subtle differences! Although I guess it was pretty hard to clamp metal to the original model's breasts on a budget of $15.99.

The Ted Nugent-Peter Saville allegiance of 2008 will be wicked I tell you. Wicked.
you have given more press to Ted Nugent than he deserves for this album. Maybe the worst album cover is the best in Ted Nugent's head...
That's the saddest part -- Ted will wear this win as a badge of honor. Once again he has upset those liberal media assholes with his brave willingness to equate women with ... er, exploding turkeys.
As if there was ever any doubt about who'd win this 'contest'. The suspense was(n't) killing me.
It's so nice to see Tawny Kitaen get work these days, even if in airbrushed cartoon form.
Wow... the Japanese edition of Love Grenade is really the only competition the special edition could have had. I honestly can't decide which is worse.
The UK cover is the same as the Japanese. I reckon it's marginally less offensive, given that the woman isn't tied up, but still...
