Rejected U2 Album Covers
U2 recently unveiled the album cover art for the physical release of their latest studio album, 'Songs of Innocence.' It's striking, to say the least (if you haven't seen it yet, check it out below).
While it may harken memories of classic U2 albums like 'Boy' and 'War,' we couldn't help but think Bono and company tried a few different versions before settling on the official cover.
So, being the journalists that we are, we started doing some digging. Lo and behold, we've unearthed the Rejected U2 Album Covers for 'Songs of Innocence.' From Jack White to Ozzy Osbourne to Johnny Depp to Kanye West, everyone was considered (even the unearthed photo of Kim Kardashian you see starting the gallery out!). If you haven't seen them yet, check out the gallery above and check out what could have been.
