Updated Warning Labels for Today’s Music

Remember seeing that label on albums back in the day?  It made a great t-shirt, too.  But a warning label like that seems…inadequate today.  Perhaps we need update things a little.  For example:

Cannot be Recreated in Concert

 

Cracked.com has more suggestions.

I’d like to see more of these, too.  I’m thinking along the lines of:

 

  • Warning:  Use of Auto Tune Ahead
  • Cash-Grab Reissue Featuring Bonus Tracks No One Wants
  • There is Exactly One Single-Worth Song on This Entire Record
  • Future One-Hit Wonder Trivia Question

 

Anything else?
