Heavy Metal Cover Girls...A Couple Of Beauties (pt 1).

 What's better than a gorgeous woman on an album cover?

Two gorgeous women on an album cover!

 It also means that you don't need to worry about whether you're going to use a Good girl or a Bad Girl on your album. This way you can have both. Everybody wins. 

Please be aware that some of these are Heavy Metal only under the loosest possible definition.   

  Lazy Bonez - Alive (Finland 2015)

 The melodic Finns deliver an album cover that works no matter which way up you hold it. 

(Except for the words but nobody is looking at those anyway). 

The first of many Good/Bad Wicked Gal covers we shall be looking at today. 

Based on this small sample, the band are old-school Scandi Melodic Rock

Inquisicion - Opus Dei (Chile 2010)

Two Very Good Girls gone very, very bad.

Now this band is very definitely Metal.

Sun King - Terpsichore (Italy 2015)

Terpsichore was the Olympian Muse of dancing but in recent years she's branched out to cover moshing, headbanging and dirty dancing.
Here she is on a road trip with her little sister  Fender, Muse of Rocking Out While Driving.

Easygoing bar-room rock

Lynx - Be Wild (Mexico 1985)

Have they been fed lately?
Are you sure?
No, I'm not going anywhere near them while they're looking like that. 
Remember what they did to poor Bob? 
Throw them a couple of chops and a mascara pencil and maybe that'll get them to settle down. 

The band are the sort of Pop/Glam Metal that used to be all over 80s Teen Comedy Soundtracks.

Godyva - In Good And Evil (Italy 2006)

Fire and Ice.
Light and Dark
Good and Bad
The best one night stand you'll ever have or true love.

Before you make your choice, grab an extinguisher and put that bloody fire out.

Female Fronted Gothic Metal (FFS ...Sirenia maybe?)

Stereoside - So Long (USA 2007)

Real friends don't let friends go out with unsightly bulges in their back pockets.

 A band that might get quite annoyed at being classed as metal - more Post-Grunge

I'd better post some more Metal then, hey?

Seamount - Sacrifice (Germany 2010)

Has anybody sat down and worked out how many Boris Vallejo paintings ended up as album covers? 

This one proves that when it comes to love, skin colour is no obstacle. 

Neither is species or having snakes growing out of your bum. 

Doom Metal with maximum Grove 

Since I'm running out of time, space and energy I'll finish with this pair of beach beauties.

Various Artists - Beach Balls Soundtrack (1988)

By all accounts the movie is utter bollocks but I still have the sountdtrack nestling happily in my LP collection. There's some good tracks on it. 

There is. 

Really.

Really. 

This little gem is on side 2 and among all the LA Glam, sticks out like a Pitbull in a petting zoo.

Here's the trailer if you're curious. 

That's all for now but expect Part 2 in a day or so
