Yesterday, when we put out the call for entries in our Worst Album Cover Of The Year tournament, we referenced Ted Nugent's special-edition cover for Love Grenade, calling its theme "Ladies: They're What's For Dinner." Well, thanks to David Menconi, we now have a first-round opponent for the Nuge: the Chapel Hill, N.C., songwriter whose album Sharp Teeth doubles as a visual tribute to the post-coital joys of eating half-digested food. Or bloodied rope. I can't really tell.

When you can actually defend Love Grenade against another album cover with the phrase "it's only implied sexualized cannibalism", you know you've got a frontrunner.
Wow. That looks very much like the work of Stephen Tunney, aka Dogbowl, the genius behind some of the early King Missile records.
On behalf of my former temporary hometown, I apologize for this cover.
I need a cold shower...
Ha. I kinda like this cover in contrast to the music on that record.
Also: I like that homegirl hasn't shaved her legs in a few days.
i LOVE this cover. no where near as bad as the usual WCOTY.
It might look romantic, but I'm pretty sure that eating your lover's raw intestines can give you the e coli.
Fucking hippies. The meat craving got you down?
Obviously this is meant to be a lesson to all the ladies. See what happens when you don't keep those legs smooth? I'm, uh, gonna go grab my Venus...
Personally, I love this album cover. In case you didn't know, it's a painting done by Beth Tacular from the band Bowerbirds. Her art is pretty excellent.
I just noticed there's a really, really, really ridiculously bad cover for the new Mudvayne album/compilation thing. Here's the Amazon link: [www.amazon.com]
