Look, we're not haters. Yesterday, we counted down the best album covers of the year. Every entry was an outstanding display of creativity, risk, and ambition. We love when artists realize that concept and packaging is just as essential to how an LP is digested as the music itself. Unfortunately, when it comes to album art, some musicians come up short. Very short.

And who might the culprits be? Whether it's Future putting absolutely zero effort into his 3D re-release, or Death Grips shoving an erect penis in our faces, there was more than enough source material this year. These are The 10 Worst Album Covers of 2012.
