Well, put some music on your device. media-scanner will do the rest. The
album-art will show up in gallery and you can't really remove it any
more. It needs to be music where media-scanner is able to fetch the
artwork. So probably won't work with your own garage band, but any well
known charts music should do.

Title:
  Gallery app should not show music album art fetched by mediascanner

Status in gallery-app package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When having some music files on the phone, mediascanner will download
  artwork for them. The Gallery app picks it up and displays hundrets of
  cover arts in the pictures feed. Deleting them from the Gallery brings
  them back all the time because mediascanner redownloads them. This
  makes it hard to find pictures taken with the camera because they
  drown in the noise of music artwork.
