This album cover is from 'Garbage' by Bones. The first thing that drew me to this album cover was the white noise effect across the middle. It is designed to give the effect as if it's losing signal. It blurs out his face and conforms to the grainy effect of the rest of the image surrounding him. This effects is also seen in the single taken from this album, 'ribs'.
Again, the grainy, olden look to this album cover is what immediately appealed to me. the graffiti style writing in the background is used to good effect as it fits perfectly with the mise en scene of the image and also adds colour to the image which draws the attention of passers-by.
This album cover is from 'easy easy' by King Krule. The abstract artwork really strikes the attention at first glance and draw you in to look closer. The artist or designer may have took inspiration from an 'Escher' painting. The colours and way the image is worked with the reflection at the bottom definitely shows some similarities.
The simple nature of this album cover used for one of 'Mura Masa' singles really interested me at first glance. We see the grainy style used on the image used to great effect again and is something I am hoping to use in my own digipak.
