Mainly for the total lack of care to make everything look cohesive. For example, the hanging man does NOT fit in any way with the city backdrop.

My favorite part is how straight the rope is

The rope also seems to be attached to the upper back rather than the neck.

Personally I have an utter dislike for "Humanure" by Cattle Decapitation.
Not just because I'm a Pink Floyd fan but I just think it's plain aweful and bad taste so only personal preference here
Which is odd, because the first two Carcass albums are among my faves. So I cannot pinpoint the issue, rationally.

What kind of creature even is that? Looks like a bird head is melting into the body of a goblin.

Most of those look way too good to belong in this thread, though...

Except AI art is largely trash and often has glaring imperfections that an actual artist would've never left in a finished product.

Just look at any time an AI is tasked to draw hands.

A couple of these AI-generated do feel uncanny (and not even the good kvlt kind either).

Take a look at this single, for example. Is that white figure suppose to be a skull or something?

And what's this big-ass creature on this one? A dragon or smoke?

I don't think the second one is too bad for AI, I mean the dragon-smoke thing could possibly pass as a confusing artistic choice?
On the other hand, the first one makes you feel like you're having a stroke

trawling some death metal demos/obscurities and I came across this band Anesthesy from Belgium (first full-length ain't bad). Looked them up here and saw oddly titled "Just Married" ep, and well:

I thought they were snowmen at first.

It's even sadder knowing that this is a symbol of how far the band has driven away from their symphonic black metal masterpieces Witchcraft and Soulblight :(

This is hilarious, the effect on the guy's eyes and the fact that the whole thing is poorly edited is what makes it so funny to me.

Just discovered the cover art for Novembre's debut. Looks like it should be something put out by an aging hippie doing Enya covers:

Man, I have no idea what feeling they wanted to evoke with this creature, but it sure makes me laugh.

The first image definitely has a bit too much going on, but the second isn't really that bad. Dare I say, even kind of good.

If they picked a better font than the kind of one you'd see in mid-90's CGI stuff, it would be a lot better. It makes the л look like a small Greek Lambda too, while the й looks like a u.

Why does the guy at the bottom left have such a derpy face? Why does the female knight look badly photoshopped? And why is there Arabic text on top of the logo?

There's just so much to take in on this one...
