There's neither irony nor sarcasm in this top 10. That's to say you're not about to see kitschy album covers for comic purposes. What you're about to see is some real deal scary shit because it's Halloween. You're warned.
Diamanda Galás Plague Mass
Recorded live at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York, the tracks in Plague Mass are the closest we'll be from an exorcism gone wrong. What about the album cover? almost as disturbing as the album sounds.
Die Waffen-SS Alte Kameraden Singen!
An acapella album by SS veterans shitting out of their mouths can't go wrong scaring anyone who isn't fucked up in the head. Why don't you Die? Waffen-SS... oh! you already did... .
Babasónicos Babasonica
Is he dead? or is he looking at a more frightening thing not shown in the picture?
Electrelane Axes
This girls from Brighton didn't choose blood, dead people or dark entities to achieve a scary album cover. But I'm pretty sure there's blood, dead people and dark entities inside that apartment.
Grouper Dragging a Dead Deer Up a Hill
...and then she came down to drag a dead boy scout.
Add N To (X) On The Wires of Our Nerves
Is there anything scarier than someone taking the music out of you?
Eric Copeland Hermaphrodite
Judging for the intentions behind Copeland's mind, it would've been easy for him to shock anyone unfortunate enough to look at a literal cover of a record with such a name. Luckily, he decided to display other kind of shock. We really appreciate that, Eric.
Half Man Half Biscuit Back in the D.H.S.S.
I don't know why this cover creeps me out a little... well, actually I do know, because it's a creepy one.
LIfelover Sjukdom
Lifelover was a black metal band from Sweden... Ok, now we got the irony.
Mueran Humanos Mueran Humanos
Argentina served as a refuge for some evil Germans. Now Germany is serving as a refuge for this evil Argentinians.
