Retrophilia: The Hounds Of Hell
retrophilia (ret troh FEE lee uh) n. 1 An intense attraction for things of the past. 2 a weekly series for popsucker wherin the irrepressible Wootini reveals the horrors of the past to the present to avoid making the same mistakes in the future.
David Bowie made a career out of transforming his image from one extreme to another, but I have to say that in 1974, he may have gone a little too far for my taste. Because at least even his weirdest androgynous looks could still be somewhat attractive, while what you're going to find after the jump is anything but!
I understand that they're selling his new album, Diamond Dogs, but couldn't they have just had Bowie surrounded by cute puppies or something?
Because this here is the stuff of nightmares!

Oh Good Lord. I certainly was not expecting nightmare fuel like that.
Er, WHAT? Bowie is GENIUS. This cover is GENIUS.
Are you only a child?
