W.A.S.P.
W.A.S.P. is the debut album by American heavy metal band W.A.S.P., released August 17, 1984. The album has been known under three different names; the spine of the original vinyl release had Winged Assassins printed on it, while early cassette releases of the album had the name of the album's first track, "I Wanna Be Somebody", printed in bold letters on the cover. The album is officially entitled simply W.A.S.P. (More from Wikipedia)
Just one song on the Filthy Fifteen list, “Animal (F--k Like A Beast)” has a vulgar title, and W.A.S.P. had already made the decision to leave the controversial song off their debut album, W.A.S.P. The copy of the song that I have is on a 12-inch single; the cover features a circular saw blade emerging from a codpiece – the image is more cartoonish than offensive to me at least.
