C'mon... look closer at the album cover, its Rumsfeld blowing the thing, Cheney cashing a cheque up and bush spraying gas over the towers. LoC is a very good politcal active anti- fascist/capitalist band, Stza even went to do community work with the EZLN in Chiapas <_<. The lyrics are also awsome
Anyway, small contribution for now :P

I know who leftover crack are, I have a few of their songs. But their lyrics are not good at all (neither is their music); they are basic and lack any kind of subtlety. In short they are shit - but then again nearly all punk has been shit since the '70s.
As for the album entitled 'fuck world trade' and them showing a picture of the murder of 3,000 people is just fucking needless.

In short they are shit - but then again nearly all punk has been shit since the '70s. Thats just a matter of opinion, and if you a refering to the millions of sellouts and commercial fucktards, thats not punk.
As for the album entitled 'fuck world trade' and them showing a picture of the murder of 3,000 people is just fucking needless. It tries to prove a point through controversy, Its aimed against neo-liberalism and the WTO, and the way the U.S goverment profited from the attacks. They never supported the 911 attacks or celebrated over innocent the deaths. Just like Rock the 40'z, again controversy, but i thought that would be quite obvious. Idem for The Coup album (although that was b4 the attacks)

Eh? That's probably one of their worst covers.
Although Eddie is still present – albeit in a slightly different form than Riggs would have painted him – he is surrounded by computer-generated characters that shocked many fans when the cover was unveiled. Eddie himself is depicted as Death, which gives a strange déjà-vu impression. Isn't Death also portrayed on every Children of Bodom album cover? As for the weird cgi people surrounding Eddie, the controversy has arisen prior to the release of the album. Did Iron Maiden give a fake preview of the Dance Of Death cover in order to mock the hordes of fans that regularly check the Internet for an exclusive peep at the cover of the future album? Many fans couldn't believe that Maiden was actually going to release an album with such an untypical (and, let's say it, ugly) cover. These computer-generated characters are not even done properly: if you look closely, the "cgi woman" in the foreground has something horribly wrong with her neck and the rest of her articulations, also the baby's backside is not even actually touching the white wolf, and there are many other details do not quite match with a correctly made picture. Only the background, with the shrouded monks, indicates that some real artistry has taken place during the design of the cover – sadly to be mainly occulted by the foreground characters.

Riggs's artwork was just so much better. Oh, and celtopunk, here is Maggie's revenge:

Yeah Maiden are a bunch of pussies for doing that.
The dead Thatcher cover though is still one of the best ever. I own a copy of that and will hold on to it until the day I die.
