Striking a macabre note, a new album cover by hip-hop band The Coup -- whose music has a strong anti-capitalist bent -- had until recently depicted the World Trade Center exploding, the band's label said on Wednesday.

"We changed the artwork as soon as we saw what had happened," said Daria Kelly, director of sales for 75 Ark, the band's label.
You can see it Here

EDIT: img size was too big sorry - fda

Also Dream Theater had cover art on their new album "Meanwhile, the rock band Dream Theater and its record company, EastWest, are contemplating whether to withdraw that group's new album, "Live Scenes From NY," because of similar cover art.

That album, released Tuesday, depicts the World Trade Center towers and the Statue of Liberty engulfed in flames and perched atop an apple draped in barbed wire."

Sad very Sad...

the question is tho, how would we all feel if we saw that and this tragedy never happened?

Obviously, no one would have thought twice about them...there are bands out there like Brujeria that use 3rd world assasination photos on their album covers, and no one cares about that either...it's just unfortunate that these evnts took place period, it's not the fault of the artists..they wanted a cover that would stand out, and now it's standing out for the wrong reasons...

First off I am not trying to be funny, but is it me or does that woman look like Heather B. from The Real Woeld season 1? I think Hummercash said in a simliar thread that the guy looks like Malik from the current Real World.
