How Does One Improve On Clubland 14's Album Cover At Halloween?

By Wendy Roby

Each week we improve on album artwork with the aid of Photoshop. This week, Clubland 14! First, let's take a look at what a good record sleeve looks like. Here is MIA to show us how it's done:

That will take some beating. But it is not scary unless you count the horrifyingly massive fire cloud things that look like fried chicken. Well, we are going to try. But because we are spooky cows this week, we are going for scary things we would have preferred to see, rather than a lady doing the house mosh.

Here is what the cover for Clubland 14 looks like:

It is a bit (clu)bland, no?

So, here are three Halloweeny things Becca would like to see on the cover:

MUCH BETTER, WE THINK YOU'LL AGREE.

Anything which reminds us of Piper Laurie telling Sissy Spacek that her breasts were in fact 'dirty pillows' is fine with us. Come on everyone; 'Eve was WEAK. Eve was WEAK' - join in, heathens. And you obviously cannot beat ultimate crazyfacer Shelley Duvall. Stanley Kubrick was everso mean to her on the set, the silly old genius.

Clubland 14 is out on Monday and is bloody terrible.

FACT! The Shining is one of the best films ever made, especially the bit with the 2 weirdos sitting on the bed with pig masks. However, if you are a dentist and your patient is called Wendy, it is not funny to call her from the waiting room by doing a Jack Nicholson in The Shining impression. We would just like to clear that one up.

I stayed in a hotel at the weekend that had carpets not unlike those from The Shining hotel. Happy to report there were no rivers of blood flowing from the lifts though!!!!!! Seriously though, there were no lifts. It had but two floors.

I've only just noticed that the "4" in "14" is made from chainsaws. Top attention to detail, Roby.
