There’s really no better time for a good piss-take than on a Friday afternoon whilst we’re waiting for the clock to hit home-time at long last. And whilst we’re holding back on flogging that dead horse to bring you guys Pt.3 of our epic photo fails series, we’re here with something of a similar vein.

Much like our photo fails galleries, we know there’s a lot of lols to be had at the expense of some of the biggest acts and DJs in the dance music community. As much as we love and follow them, they can make some very spectacular and very laughable blunders, in particular with some extremely poor choices when it comes to album art, the images of which are perhaps even more enduring than press shots, making the fails that much more juicy.

And there’s just so much to choose from! From DJs hamming it up with some glamour shouts on the album cover – here’s lookin’ at you BT – to the myriad of dodgy art found on compilation packs, it’s seemingly never ending. With that in mind, have a look at our picks in the gallery below as what we reckon are truly some of the crappiest album covers in dance music and hit us back with the shockers you think we missed in the comments! Happy Friday!

not that it bothers me cos i havent even listened to a mos max bass cd, nor do i really want to, but im pretty sure that the cars on the covers of the max bass cds are as is....i know the one on number 4 is anyway

Oh yeah they're definitely real cars, but looking at that cover art, you can tell they've added some heavy gloss to the image and the license plate looks super dodgy.

you could do a whole section of these just on psy trance covers, i'm sure. Also, there is a distinct lack of 90's rave covers. You know the ones.

Who really cares about album art work...Its about the production of the tracks!

Pretty sure Kaleidoscope is one of the crappiest covers... love Tiesto... but looks like a massive tosser on that cover!
