Here’s the cover art for the upcoming album by The Who (their first studio album since 1982), Endless Wire:
Yeeeeugggh.
The best response to this cover that I’m aware of was made by a guy on a private discussion forum who said: “I’m Kent Brockman, and this is ‘Eye on Springfield’.”

Arrr, she’s not easy on they eye-patch.
Those graphics make my eyes sad.
I guess The Who have never heard of Gordon Lightfoot and his Endless Wire album. Christ knows Gord’s picture on the cover was even easier on the senses than that one.
I’m 53, a grandfather and happen to be in Des Moines on business where I saw The Who play 20 years ago. I think I should try and see you chaps again. Want to get together for a beverage beforehand? Give me a call at 402-871-3144. Pranksters please don’t call.
