Brad Paisley Visits The Saddest Playground Ever



I know that Brad Paisley’s forthcoming album Play is supposed to be mostly instrumental, but jeez, man, how is that guitar supposed to swing if there’s nobody to give it that first push? Or is it just going to move through the power of those awful Technicolor outlines surrounding the type on the cover?

    Needs a mustachioed roadie peering around the corner.

    They said it couldn’t be done, but Brad Paisley was determined to make an album with an even worse cover than 5th Gear.

    Back in the ’90s, country covers were usually bad because Garth Brooks had awful taste in shirts. Now they’re ugly because of Photoshop. Sad.

    Arista’s letting him design these atrocities himself. This could be the one instance in which I’d support the label not turning over complete creative control.

    All country albums should have covers by Aaron Turner or John Baizley. Or maybe Seldon Hunt.

    The concept is OK, I guess. Execution, not so much.

    @unperson: I’m gonna go on and add Aaron Horkey to your list. I hope that’s acceptable.

    Brad Paisley: Never have I respected a musician for being a musician so much, yet be completely unable to like his music.

    Maybe it’s just the aftermath of the first Korn album cover. Edward Scissorhands took the girl, left a guitar.

    That doesn’t even look like they bothered with something like Photoshop. More like Microsoft Paint. And a blind man at the helm.

    that cover is a fucking abominable sin against art.
