Mr. Show vet Brian Posehn has made a name for himself tickling your funny bone with his strange sense of humor.Stuffmagazine.com dated 7/11/2006 let him do the honour in breaking down the 10 most ridiculous heavy-metal album covers of all time. Just banking on his new album from the "comedian of comedy," titled Live In: Nerd Rage, which also features the stand-up plugging in to thrash with a shredding supergroup, here i share with you.
10. Poison, Look What the Cat Dragged In
Posehn: I'm gonna have that cat put down. It keeps dragging shitty bands in here. I remember the "who are these ladies?" reaction I had when I first saw this album at Tower Records in Sacramento in 1986. I also remember putting it down and grabbing Megadeth. 
9. Manowar, Into Glory Ride
Drummer auditions:
"Loincloths and a handlebar moustache? Yeah, I'll join your band. Will it be metal?"
"Oh yeah, the most metal."
"Will it be gay?"
"Yeah, the most gay." 
8. Mortiis, Smell of Rain
Not quite black metal—more like elf folk metal. Mortiis looks like a Lord of the Rings extra taking a break before they shot the Helm's Deep battle. What a fucking goof. And you know five minutes before this picture, he was in his shitty car applying his own makeup, yelling at the photographer in Finnish, or Elvish, "Hold on! My ears aren't sticking!" 
7. Exodus, Bonded by Blood
Classic album, classically bad cover. Band meeting:
"What about a two-headed baby?"
"That's sort of metal."
"What if one of the babies is a demon?"
"Totally metal."
"Let's get somebody shitty to draw it."
"Band meeting over." 
6. Jackyl, Jackyl
Dogs playing poker? Lame. Dogs hanging out in the studio, Jackyl-style? Superlame. Lame fact: While researching this piece, I found out Jackyl have a greatest hits record.
YOU: "Greatest hits, really?"
ME: "Yes, really. Now quit asking questions. I'm trying to write." 
5. Stryper, Soldiers Under Command
Automatic weapons, an A-Team van and four wimpy Sunset Strip rejects fighting for God? Not in my Bible.
4. Riot, Fire Down Under
Love this underrated early '80s New York metal outfit. Twenty-five years later, I still have no idea what that fucking thing is. Weird little seal-faced guy. Almost as weird-looking as the Seal who gets to bang that supermodel. 
3. Yngwie Malmsteen, Trilogy
Yngwie J. Malmsteen—the J stands for jackass—hired a D&D player manual artist to draw him shooting down a three-headed dragon noodling around on his Strat. Metal for dorks. I wonder how many women own this album. 
2. Exciter, Violence and Force
Holy shit, that's awful. So seedy-looking, it feels like a snuff album cover. Like once he got that door open, she was dead. I love the shitty details: the blade taped to his palm, the wristband—so you can tell it's metal, because the band logo wasn't a tip-off—and are those hands painted black? I don't even want to hear that band meeting.
1. TIE
Pantera, Metal Magic
I love this band with all my heart, but the covers for their first two albums are unbelievably terrible. That weird wolf-like creature with a blade… Isn't the point of being a kickass wolfman that you don't need a weapon? And why is he nude except for a belt? Kickass invisible pants? I just picture that art on the town loser's van.
and 
Pantera, Projects in the Jungle
Equally low-rent. I drew better pictures on my high school binder. If your friend showed you this on a flyer and said, "Wanna come see my badass band?" your appropriate response would be, "No. I do not."
