Today I'm talking about some records that scared the hell out of me as a kid.Looking back now, I realize that was the whole point. It was very clever and calculated marketing that propelled these albums to the forefront… and made them very desirable for teenage boys like me. The record labels understood the demographics. Nothing wrong with that. They’re still great albums… Let’s discuss…

That Black Sabbath cover makes me uneasy to this very day.

@steveeckert8396 7 месяцев назад

How did Dio not make the list. I owned most of the albums on this list. Dio was the only album my Mom asked me to hide.

@kennethjoyce1457 8 месяцев назад

it was not the cover that scared me, it was the music! Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells!! So cool today and I still get goose bumps!!

@killrmillr 8 месяцев назад

One reason the Ozzy covers look cheesy now is because The Osbournes TV show totally changed the perception that people have of who Ozzy Osbourne is.

@rob1tnt 8 месяцев назад

Same goes for KISS!

That's an opinion...

@djroach3237 7 месяцев назад

Not true!

@mikedecker2951 5 месяцев назад

@@djroach3237kinda true, I mean the tv show showed just how stupid and lewd Ozzy was , I mean what I thought was a great lyricist transformed into an illiterate dunce hurling f bombs at his kids to try and look edgy, disappointing, cheesy AF and a total letdown. Prince of darkness....pauper of pinheads

@salamwati9281 2 месяца назад

Spot on.. Ozzy used to be a strong enigma..the TV show just shows what a normal guy vying for attention he has become..hatemail here we come 😂

@bcrichmark 8 месяцев назад

Merciful Fate = Don't break the oath. Ther is an intro that sounds like king diamond is pledging his soul to the devil. And the other is Venom = At war with satin. The breakdown in the middle of the title track where cronos says Are You Down In Hell? Spooked me. Both those albums scared me enough to not blay them as often. Then after some time I realized it was all just a great gimic and that they were masterpieces.

@Dethmeister 5 месяцев назад

2:16 Yeah, that's the one I was thinking of. The album cover but especially the instrumental track E5150.

@vinylisbetter5950 8 месяцев назад

My cousin bought 5 copy of Shout at the devil on cassette. He lived with our very devout Baptist grandmother. She would find it.....and take it....luckily he had a job at a local steakhouse to replace it. When she passed away, 20 some odd years later.......we found all the copies she took from him. We laughed hysterically..... almost as hard as we did when we got caught singing Bastard off the album by grandpa. When I then cousin when asked what he was singing said.....faster. told pops it was about a motorcycle. Oh to be in my teens again........good times great music. Thanks for the vid Frank. Got a smile out of this old man.

@juangone75 8 месяцев назад

Two album covers that scares me as a kid, Iron Maiden’s Piece of Mind….what is that thing in chains?! Quiet Riot’s Metal Health, why is he in a mask and straitjacket?! Scared me every time.

@ignatiusb.samson977 8 месяцев назад

Yep. That first Sabbath album is a thing. The cover of The Mob Rules gave me the creeps pretty bad.

@DWINC 7 месяцев назад

I was backstage with Slayer back in the 90s. Despite their image, especially Tom was one of the sweetest guys I ever met. So funny how perception can fool us:

@jimscardsandcollectibles1990 8 месяцев назад

The "Kill 'em All" cover always brought to mind the Canadian metal band "Exciter" and their album covers.

@mournblade1066 8 месяцев назад

The writing on Speak of the Devil is from the runes taken from The Hobbit, of all things. It says, "Howdy, Dial-A-Demon Productions in conjunction with Graveyard Graphics proudly presents the madman of rock," and then something about "el Satano's toilet" or what not.

@CounterRhythms 8 месяцев назад

For me it was seeing the Venom albums at the record shops. Those album covers scared me but fascinated me at the same time. I eventually got around to buying them and loving them a few years later. 🤘

@mrgrinch9865 8 месяцев назад

Hell awaits by Slayer ... the sight of demons ripping people to shred scared me. I was 9 at the time.

@abandonlife111 8 месяцев назад

I used to have a big backpatch on a jean jacket with that album cover imagery.

@carravagio16 8 месяцев назад

I was a freshman in highschool when Dirt by alice in chains came out and i remember the cover art so vividly. I wasnt afraid of it but for some reason it left an impact on me. Im glad vinyl / physical format is coming back some because you dont get this type of interaction w/ streaming. Hope you Sherri and the kids are doing well. Ill be pulling for your Jets again this year. Brian North Carolina

@drmbgls1 8 месяцев назад

The first Sabbath album, me and a friend taped the beginning of Black Sabbath on a cassette and made a loop of the rain and thunder. We then call a friend with that playing in the background and and told them we were stuck in a phone booth in a rain storm even though they looked outside and it was a beautiful sunny day. But they bought into it after hearing the thunder and church bells going.

@Fizzlebritches75 8 месяцев назад

It was “Abominog” by Uriah Heep and “Born Again” by Black Sabbath for me. TOTALLY freaked me out as a kid. You could probably throw “Goats Head Soup” by The Stones in there too. 😱

@evilchaosboy 8 месяцев назад

Born Again! Yeah, i totally remember the day I bought that (I think the guy at the record store even looked funny at me!) but, it wasn't until years and years later that I thought that cover was kinda creepy

@ralphreinhardt6020 8 месяцев назад

Abominog totally scared the crap outta me as a kid. The cover still kinda freaks me out to this day.

Them....one of the greatest covers ever

@jambogeordie 8 месяцев назад

Love these type of episodes Frank. Agree with all your choices. Spot on with Shout, my folks were so concerned they instilled a 1 pop album for each metal album. That introduced me to Duran Duran and the Cars. Also remembering the Ozzy tour shirts around 1983? If I recall it was a hooded figure carrying Ozzy's severed head! My buddy Greg had one and sat in front of me in class...I just stared at it non stop!

@rEdf196 8 месяцев назад

One of the scariest record of the 70’s was Nazareths Greatest Hits which had soft slow love song slowly fading off then suddenly, out of the blue this searing distorted slide guitar of the song My White Bicycle that guitar intro just cuts right in unexpectedly which still scares the hell out of me to this day when your not expecting it

@graflex74 8 месяцев назад

King Diamond - Them- that one track were he’s taking to his dead grandma freaked me out the first time I heard it. lol

@patbarr1351 8 месяцев назад

Hawkwind's "Sonic Attack" from *Space Ritual* is pretty chilling. About a futuristic weapon you cannot fight but only flee from ("try to get as far from the sonic source as possible"), it was written by S.F. author Mike Moorcock. It ends with the repeated warning that you must "help only yourself."

@NiagSam 8 месяцев назад

Hey Frank cool video as always! apart from scary album covers you covered today, as a kid I always found Ozzys Bark at the moon pretty scary! Cheers from Ajax, Ontario!

Fun video Frank. Happy (scary) early Halloween!

@grahambiggs9822 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing Frank . Some very interesting covers and I can see your parents concern with one or two of them. Familiar with alot of the Iron Maidon album covers, but not Black Sabbath (apart from their debut) or Ozzie and Slayer. The album cover and music that gave me the creeps was a Canadian fellow called "Nash the Slash" and his album "Children of the night". Saw him live in 1980 as a support act for Gary Numan... and he blew my mind !! Great show Frank and keep on spinnin !!

@stevezodiac6025 8 месяцев назад

There have been more than a few records that have frightened me to one degree or another. Not the album covers, but rather the music. Music has an ability to elicit thoughts and emotions just as most art does. The first record I remember being scared by is 'Sounds to Make You Shiver' (1964) which my parents played around Halloween along with various props and decorations for the trick-or-treaters. Otherwise without a doubt the most frightening record I ever listened to was 'Question of Balance' by the Moody Blues. I was 17 and had recently discovered the adventure of smoking herbs. It took me 5 or 6 times before I made it through the entire first side without freaking out or crying. This one is not your typical scary album, but it had an affect on me for sure. I later saw 'Heavy Metal' while tripping and the music soundtrack in parts was scary to me. Another record was the last song on 'Song For America' by Kansas. It is called I think 'Hymn for the Atman', and the first time I heard it was a terrifying experience. Just goes to say - fear is as fear does, and it is in the heart of the beholder. I am sure if I gave it some thought and went through my collection I could come up with more examples like perhaps 'Secret Treaties'

@wwltd3036 8 месяцев назад

Diary was my introduction to Ozzy, my older brother made ME ask for it for MY birthday, he had never heard of Ozzy before either, but had seen the album cover at his friends house. Where he was immediately horrified and became a hip hop fan, I instantly became a metalhead. Speak was also the first place I ever heard Sabbath tunes. This entire video was like a tour through my milk crate at 15.

@joet_swbo101 8 месяцев назад

I got Black Sabbath We Sold Our Souls For Rock and Roll, when it first came out as a present from a cousin of mine for my 10th birthday. The inside of the gatefold with the woman in the coffin with the mirrored cross "scared" me. Especially looking at it during the end of Children of the Grave with those sounds, lol. Another Sabbath album with a creepy cover, was a greatest hits album, that came out in the mid to late seventies on the NEMS label. They used a middle ages painting from Spain called the Triumph of Death. Showing Death taking over the human race. This was painted during the Black Plague I believe. Cool cover with a lot going on there if you get a chance to check it out.

I met Slayer at Mothers Records on Portage Ave in 1984 when they were doing an in store signing. Kerry King signed something for me saying, "F**k the sickening death" lol

Don't Break the Oath by Mercyful Fate. The back looked even scarier than the front.

@luciusblackwood2640 8 месяцев назад

I remember being afraid to play Venom's Black Metal (cassette) because something bad might happen.

@chris21477 8 месяцев назад

That writing on the Ozzy stuff actually says stuff. For instance the writing over the band picture says, " The Ozzy Osbourne Band". Same thing for the Speak of the devil album writing.

@xtremelogic4505 8 месяцев назад

There were only two albums that scared the bejeebers out of me as a kid. The first album was Black Metal by Venom, and the second album was Hell awaits by SLAYER.

@GilyBeck 8 месяцев назад

Great vid. I agree.. for me it wasn’t as wasn’t as much as being scared as much as being freaked and fascinated. Like taking you to another world. A form of escape from the real hell that we were suffering in our troubles of being a kid. Honestly. I was more scared of some of the covers of children records that I remember seeing when I was young that had dolls or puppets on them that was geared toward children. But it scared the hell outta me!!

@RobertoVanni 8 месяцев назад

To me "Don't break the oath" by Mercyful Fate was the scariest...

@tompatchak8706 8 месяцев назад

This is a weird one, but my therapist used to have coasters and end table cover that look like this Black Sabbath album. I had like the old English building in like a rock fence kind of deal. There was no creepy lady on it but every time I went to therapy I saw this and then when I left, I have to listen to Black Sabbath in the car.

@daBEAGLE1017 8 месяцев назад

Nothing scared me more than the first time ive heard Hell Awaits by SLAYER

@vinylonvideo 8 месяцев назад

Not sure if I was scared or more fascinated, but the cover of Molly Hatchet's "Flirtin' With Disaster" and that awesome Frank Frazetta artwork got my attention. I do remember being pretty freaked out about The Muppets Show LP when I was quite young...Kermit is front and center but then there was Sweetums lurking in the dark in the background. Nightmare fuel. 😂

@usquebaugh1 8 месяцев назад

I was 12 when Speak of the Devil came out and it's the album cover that seems to have evoked some early shock and awe. I also remember first hearing Metallica's Trapped Under Ice and thinking that is was quite a few notches more intense than the Def Leppard, Quiet Riot and Motley Crue tunes that kicked off my metal journey...then that the "You Shall Die! "lyric was hilarious...and then quickly that the Ride The Lightning album was awesome.

@carlosforg 8 месяцев назад

Mercyful Fate / don't break the oath. This one is awesome! Creepy and yet when i first saw it, i had to buy it!

@Valnoten 8 месяцев назад

An album my kids find scary is Opeth - My Arms, Your Hearse. I love that album, but had no idea...back then. My kids showed me, later on, the album cover...and really SHOWED me. I have no idea how I could have missed it, for about 20 years. Hahaha. Look it up :D

@bmmaaate 8 месяцев назад

The hard to decipher 'runes' on the Ozzy album actually says 'The Ozzy Osbourne Band' you can use those few letters to decipher the rest.

@raggeragnar 8 месяцев назад

Hello Frank ! 5 that comes to mind : Black Sabbath - s/t Queen - News of the world King Crimson - In the court of…….. Black Sabbath - Born again Pink Floyd - Wish you were here Stay cool !

@matthewg666 8 месяцев назад

Can only think of one album and one song with a caveat. Both were only scary in the context of when I was listening to them. 01. Grim Reaper - Fear No Evil (album). On its own, it didn't effect me. I usually play music to go to sleep to. Even Fear No Evil. One time when I was in Jr High, I woke up in the middle of the night and caught part of Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2. For some reason, the yuppie scene disturbed me enough that I couldn't go back to sleep to Grim Reaper. Had to switch to Great White. 02. ZZ Top - El Diablo (song off of Tejas). Again, on its own, it's fine. But, again I was around 14 or 15 at the time. Was on a trip with my sister and her husband. We stopped in Texas to get a little rest. Middle of the night in Texas, in the bed of a pickup truck kind of amps up the creepiness of the music in this song.

@ProfessorEchoMedia 8 месяцев назад

I thought this was going to be about scary songs and not covers. For that my scariest song would be THE BALLAD OF DWIGHT FRY by Alice Cooper, which I listened to over and over again and being totally creeped out by it. Still enjoyed this video, especially that newspaper article clip about Ozzy’s live show with the bat which had a nice picture of Ozzy smiling that looked like it could have been in a church newsletter!

@dmnddog7417 8 месяцев назад

Slayer "Reign In Blood," Metal Church "The Dark," anything by King Diamond and Merciful Fate. Venom's "Welcome to Hell," and "Black Metal."

@jasonroussel9679 8 месяцев назад

Yeah, Motley Crue's "Shout at the Devil" scared me a bit. The way that whole album started off with "In the Beginning" which lead to the title track was pretty evil-sounding. Also, Meat Loaf's "Bat Out of Hell" album cover frightened me as well. Excellent artwork by the late illustrator Richard Corben.

One song that kind of spooked me as a kid was the beginning of Funeral for A Friend by Elton John. I was nine years old when this was released and the howling wind, bells and ominous organ made me think "What the heck is this?" Of course it is one of the greatest opening songs for an LP in my opinion.

@RonaldWilliams-qh7zc 8 месяцев назад

Definitely agree with you on that first Black Sabbath album my dad had that album when it first came out and I remember around 2 years old in 1972 seeing that album cover and yes it did scare the s*** out of me lol in the song itself at that time One More album cover I forgot to tell you that used to scare me that is super fly from Curtis Mayfield you know the back of the album cover witch show the picture of Freddy being beat all up in the face the used to scare the s*** out of me also I didn't know what that was lol

Holy Diver by Dio scared the hell out of me. Loved the music on the album, but the cover for me, was too scary to keep so I gave the record to a friend.

@brianartillery 8 месяцев назад

Very few album covers bothered me, as I've always been fond of dark, weird stuff - although one, for the Throbbing Gristle album '20 Jazz Funk Greats', which was made to look like one of those cheesy 1970's K-Tel compilation albums, came close. The front is pure cheese, but for one thing: the band, who were hardcore electronic noise merchants, who had songs about sex, death, mutilation, decay, etc., were at Beachy Head, which with it's 530 feet high cliff, was/is the go to suicide spot in the UK. The back cover looks similar, but the band are now standing around what looks like a corpse in the grass. One band member, Peter 'Sleazy' Christopherson, used to be a graphic artist at Pink Floyd's designers of choice, Hipgnosis, so it's possible it's one of his designs. It's very dark indeed.

@vallaindigital 8 месяцев назад

The very first metal record I have listened to, was Anvil's Metal on Metal. It did not scare me, but metal being all new to me, I was left with a strange feeling or discomfort. Another one that I remember scaring me is a track from an album from Celtic Frost. The album is Morbid Tales (their first), and the track is called Danse Macabre. Although, it's not really a song, but more like a scary soundtrack. I'd probably find this cheezy today.

@evilchaosboy 8 месяцев назад

Chee! The only record cover that ever _kinda_ scared/more fascinated was KISS ALIVE II. I couldn't figure out what _"they"_ were! Of course those head close-ups are prolly the most representative of the band "at work"...especially The Demon) I was so ripe for ALL the mythology and believed it like it was fact! I was exposed to that _before_ I was actually ready (Christ! I think I was like four!!) I still had kids records and radio music to get thru before I was reintroduced to that genre again. Shout at the Devil in the fifth grade and I found one of the few things that I remain absolutely loyal to...Metal/Rock n Roll. I stared at the open gatefold at them too. I was never scared by "Shout" era Crue; I was AWED! Anyways, they were totally based on KISS whether they, you or your mother denies it and my cousin gave me all his KISS albums after that. What scares me is that "wackjob" actor Kory Feltman (ya know...from Friday part 4!) His music I find truly disturbing! Yeesh!

@Protometal66 8 месяцев назад

For me , it was Merciful Fate - Don't Break The Oath. Started with the album cover and hearing the Oath didn't help. I think I was 19 at the time. For whatever reason Welcome To Hell and Show No Mercy , which I bought earlier 83 ? I think , didn't affect me anywhere near as much as Don't Break The Oath. Kill'em All had just been released and was on sale at the Record Bar when I first saw it. I don't think it scared me , it did appeal to me as I purchased it that day. The Black Mass Lucifer album was somewhat freaky to me when I first saw it.

@stevezodiac6025 3 месяца назад

Just stumbled on this for some reason. I wasn't too bothered by album covers. My dad had a record store from about 1955-1973. I remember the Sweathogs cover and also the Blind Faith cover that got changed as a little boy. However, two albums that really sort of scared the hell out of me as a teenager were Question of Balance by the Moody Blues, and after then Song For America by Kansas. Justin Hayward I guess was into acid for a few albums back then (ie. Legend of a Mind), and the Kansas album was for our bicentennial and was a message about where we were as a nation and where we were going. Also I was doing my own share of smoking 'things' .

@lowreztv 7 месяцев назад

I was never freaked out by cover art, but when I played "there's still time to change the road you're on..." backwards, when a friend asked me to, (from "Stairway to Heaven, of course)... and I heard what I heard, I actually took the record outside and put it in the street trash cans... then I bought it again about two years later.

Five albums that scared the hell out of me as a kid: 1. Pink Floyd - The Wall (The inner cover). 2. Uriah Heep - Very eavy, Very umble. 3. KISS - Alive II (Gene Simmons Face on the cover and back cover). 4. Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden (the Eddie´s face was very impressive to me). 5. AC/DC - If You Want Blood... (Angus with the guitar in his stomach).

@alisdairedwards 8 месяцев назад

Speak (Talk U.K.) of the Devil was the first time I had heard many of these Black Sabbath songs. Turns out Randy Rhodes hated playing Sabbath songs and was going to quit after the recording as his one last thing with Ozzy. Well, we all know the story and he never made it to those shows. Brad Gillis had to learn all of these last minute, but really held his own.

@kevin2400 3 месяца назад

One song that scared me to this day is electric light orchestra. Fire on high... once the backwards talking starts... i change the station... album cover wise is boston with the spaceship with the cities inside.. both scared and fascinated by it

@laudanum669 7 месяцев назад

For me one album really stands out and that's Black Sabbath's "Sabbath Bloody Sabbath". The tormented orgy scene with 666 on the beds headboard. That album cover was done by the artist Drew Struzan who went on to do movie posters for some of Hollywood's biggest films. Such as Back to the Future, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, The Muppet Movie, Coming to America, First Blood, Risky Business and many more.

There’s a band called Witchfynde and the cover to their album Give ‘em Hell scared me when I was younger. Hell it’s still disturbing at 30 years old lol.

@adventureawaits3646 8 месяцев назад

didn't scare me but fascinated me and still of my favorite covers: Bat out of Hell by Meatloaf. That bike breaking free from the underground symbolized how I felt as angsty teen, need to get out of this hell! Cannibal Corpse sure had some interesting covers too, never cared for their music, but those albums I'd have had to hide at home I think 😀

@butterbagboy 4 месяца назад

I think that really cool cover also tricked some people, I thought what was inside was much harder than it really was!

@markwildt5728 2 месяца назад

I used to listen to Diary of a Madman for hours just staring at the album art, and to this day always wondered what S.A.T.O. meant. In fact, I don't think I ever even learned what S.I.N. meant on Won't Be Coming Home (S.I.N.) Also Speak of the Devil was also my introduction to Black Sabbath. I got my first Ozzy album No Rest For The Wicked for my 5th birthday, and was a fan ever since, and didn't learn about Black Sabbath until later.

@richardrofacale4557 5 месяцев назад

My preschool teacher in the 80s used to play this children's record during nap time with goofy kids songs and one of them was a song about monsters. Either that or my child's level of serotonin made me perceive that it was. To me the lyrics of the chorus were "the monsters will getcha, the monsters will getcha, oh-oh-oh you better watch out. I never fell asleep during nap time so I would be just laying awake listening to this. I guess i kinda liked that song but always thought it was a strange thing to have on a record for small children. Anyone else heard it? Because I'm looking for it.

My friend back in the day had every metal album before we all did and turned us on to it. I was already into sabbath and priest from the 70s but he showed us the first debut of maiden stuff like that and we thought it was so cool . An Album that he exposed us to was Venom welcome to hell when it first came out ,the cover wasn’t the scariest but as much as I was into metal and I was not brought up religious at all I thought I was gonna go straight to hell . I thought God was going to punish me for listening to this album and again I wasn’t religious at all. Scared the fk out of me .

I got a French copy of the soundtrack for the movie "The Omen" It has some really great satanic chanting on it! I had just traded for a Dual turntable and it was the first album I played on it. Well.....the first song with the chanting on it finished and then the turntable proceeded to start playing backwards!! Based on what I was playing that really shocked the hell out of me haha. It just turned out though it was a mechanical problem with the magnets on the motor that somehow reversed ! I was never able to get it working even after letting my local tech guy look at it! 😄

100% that Black Sabbath album! I first heard it in grade school and was genuinely spooked by it. And later when I was older I was a bit scared of Ministry’s ‘ in case you didn’t feel like showing up” I thought the music sounded and felt evil!

Two album covers that kind of freaked me out the first time I saw them are from the same band. Pungent Stench’s albums “Been caught buttering” and “Dirty nursery rhymes and psychotronic beats”. The latter is my favorite album of theirs but man what a cover!!! Check ‘em out.

That cover with the overweight s&m woman creeps me out so bad, I hate it, but I have it 🤷‍♂️

Yes!!!! Finally someone that knows what I’m talking about. That is some seriously freaky looking sh*t. Freaked me out so much that I had to buy it. LOL! It was in the 90’s and I got it on cd. Now I have it on vinyl.

I went to catholic school so all of this stuff scared me. I remember buying Marilyn Manson’s ‘smells like children’ and being so scared I was going to hell for not just buying it, but liking it, that i destroyed my copy
