The Shocking & Censored Covers

Andrew W.K.: I Get Wet (2001) Believe it or not, the unsightly cover of this debut album helped propel it to the top of Billboard's Heatseekers chart. But Roe Etheridge's photo of the artist's bloody nose -- reportedly obtained by self-flagellation with a cinder block and then the addition of pig's blood -- caused the album to get a big black-bar sticker in many retail stores. Fans bought it just to peel the bar off and see that bloody face. -- JC
