I’ve attached the link to the worst album covers site that was linked to the poor excuse for journalism from that “newspaper” - thay had a lot more to choose from. But lets assume the positive - they were only picking form popular albums (I say popular as you wouldn’t dare call James Blunt quality!!).

And I thought the guy on the Troublegum cover was spewing on a copy of the Grauniad that was already in the dustbin.

hahaha this has just proven how hypocrtical the media industry is. Its nice to see therapy? are still getting attention. Honnestly give it a few years and the 90s revival will start and therapy? will be seen as all classic and cool. I gurantee it.

We should email this to them:

It might be argued that a woman in a short skirt and high heels throwing up in a dustbin is the perfect visual accompaniment to such an unpleasant read as The Observer, but one has to call into question any artist’s motive for making a magazine cover so horrid to look at. If nothing else, imagine proudly taking the Food Monthly supplement round to your mum’s house on a Sunday afternoon. “I think I’ll just put this in the drawer, dear …”

RE: The Observer Food Monthly cover, August 2007

Dear Sir or Madam,

Unfortunately I’m writing to complain about the above mentioned cover, in which a woman appears to be vomiting into a bin.

It might be argued that a woman in a short skirt and high heels throwing up in a dustbin is the perfect visual accompaniment to such an unpleasant read as The Observer, but one has to call into question any artist’s motive for making a magazine cover so horrid to look at. If nothing else, imagine proudly taking the Food Monthly supplement round to your mum’s house on a Sunday afternoon. “I think I’ll just put this in the drawer, dear …”

I’m sure I’m not the only person to have been disturbed by such imagery. Was it perhaps your intention to send your readers into therapy?

I look forward to hearing your thoughts,

Yours faithfully,

Mr S xxxxxxx
