That Manson cover is awful. The album itself is horrible as well. Antichrist Superstar had awesome artwork.
What is with the hatred towards The Golden Age Of Grotesque? That’s a close second to Mechanical Animals for the best album.

Musically GAOG is pure, mediocre, overproduced shit. Cover art isn’t that bad though.
I couldn’t care less about MM or his music, but I think that album cover is okay, actually. The blurriness makes it uncomfortable to look at, and I’m thinking they were going for such an uncomfortable feel.
And compared to some of this other album covers it looks great:
You know the label is cutting back on you financially when your album cover consists of crappy photoshop and you holding rope lights over your head like a crown of thorns or some shit.

HAHAHAHA!!! That’s crap.
It looks like some photo taken for an interview with “WIRED” magazine or something.
I think this is total uninspired generic dogcrap too.
Even more offensive because they probably spent a small fortune on it. And if they didn’t . . . well, it ain’t like they were hurting for money, so shame on them no matter what.
Stupid cliché garbage.
Most of Manson’s covers are crap. Almost all of them are just giant closeups of his head.
Was that really the cover to Manson’s last album? Wow…
Anyway here’s another contender (Black to Comm - Fractal Hair Geometry)
I always hated this cover.
…aaaaaaaaand once again those Pantera clowns rise to the challenge:

Boy, it’s just…it’s…oh the hell, words fail me.
Never liked Pantera. Never surprised me that their album art sucked either.
HAHAHA!!! So gay.

I’d give Holywood the 2nd place trophy next to Mechanical.

Yeah, at this point in time I’d be willing to give this one the trophy and call it quits.
I mean really. To think that band was/is still adored by millions. Oh well, I suppose trailer park people have got to listen to something.
What’s he holding in his left hand, it looks like there’s something blurred/pixelated out?
Not all of Pantera’s album covers were bad.
