36. Arctic Monkeys: 'Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not' (2006) – Back on the other side of the millennium no-one would have batted an eyelid at th'Arctic Monkeys record sleeve. Not now. Featuring the band’s close friend and brother of The Reverend, Chris McClure, the Arctics landed into hot water after anti-smoking groups complained about the CIGARETTE in McClure’s mouth. NHS for Scotland said it hammers home the message that “smoking is okay” for young people, but the band's manager hilariously counteracted by saying: "You can see from the image smoking is not doing him the world of good". Two months after the record's release McClure quit smoking, not due to the detriment health effects but because he was broke!
