Album Art Part Two

OneRepublic-Native-2013  One Republic - Native (2013)
The album is named Native and therefore it denotes that they are looking at more natural style in their music. The group is a pop rock band comprised of five members. Their are five animals portrayed on this cover this could be representative of each different member. It represents how different each member is as well as them being indigenous to different countries.

This art work is simple yet powerful. The colours as well as the use of the overlapping animals helps to catch the eye. Fans of theirs will understand the cover more than people who are looking to purchase only one single. The font is also representative of the group. It is their trademark style so they are easy to identify.

                                                                          Mylo Xyloto - Coldplay (2011)

This album is a concept album by Coldplay. The group is an alternative rock band. The key theme of this album is a happy ending to a love story. The album is supposed to be different to its predecessors it has more of a "stripped-back" sound. The cover was meant to be an explosion of colour unlike their album Viva La Vida. The artwork is composed of song lyrics and key themes of the album. It was created by the band in their home studios.

The cover only shows three sections of the wall and inside the booklet the whole wall is shown. The artwork was so successful that they went on to sell canvases of it. The font is different to their usual trademark it is a new graphic design made especially for this album.


The Truth About Love - Pink (2012)

Pink is a pop/rock artist and this is shown clearly in the artwork. Its theme is love, relationships and break ups. It also deals with feminist issues. The artwork is very basic but within in the pop genre album covers tend to feature the artist. This image shows her as a confident woman with attitude as well as class.

The colours are complimentary to the image as well as the font style. Her trademark is still used in her name using a ! as an I. The font is outlined in colour which is eye catching and would be something that we could use when developing our digi-packs.
