Tumbled across an interesting blog that is nothing more than a collection of album covers with the dead band members photoshopped out. Lots more over on the blog, but below are my favorites. Rather eerie, eh?

While this is a cool article with some neat pics, the Nirvana one is NOT the album cover for their Nevermind record. Its the single for Smells Like Teen Spirit. And while you can probably finagle your discription to include this pic, its not cover of the Nevermind Cover (remember the naked baby swimming).

@IFB. I assume that the majority here can read “Smells Like Teen Spirit” on the album cover and not “Nevermind”.

Wow. This is interesting, but depressing as hell.
