The Kooks - Sway

Arctic Monkeys - 'Fluorescent Adolescent'

This photograph represents two different colour pallets. On the right hand side the colour pallet includes a mixture of a dark and light red. In the picture the artist is looking through a shattered window, again dressed in dark clothing. This makes only his face stand out to the camera which gives an uncomfortable look.
The back cover of the digipak is basically the same as the front cover. The colour pallet is still the same. There is still a man featured except this time he is joined by some doves, this adds some colour and stands out. The barcode can be found in the far bottom right which again is white and adds more colour still. On the right hand side placed directly above the bar code, in a list form are names of the songs. There is a puddle on the floor in front of him which gives off an effective refection.
This digipak was produced by an artist called Jon Boden and the album is called Songs from the Flood Plane. The titles are showed in different fonts. For example, 'Jon Boden' is in capitals at the top of the digipak so its more or less the first thing you see. The digipak has a very dark and miserable colour pallet, where everything is blue and black. There is a man in the picture who we presume is the artist is slightly off centre. He is wearing a dark coat and trousers to blend in with the background.

This digipak was produced by a band called Emerson, Lake and Palmer and the album is called Pictures At An Exhibition. This digipak stood out for me because of its unique design. The theme of the digipak folows a picture exhibition. The names of the songs on the album are hung from the picture frames which gives a good effect. The disk is presented to look like an old record vinyl with a thick black circle outlining a smaller circle in the centre of the disk. The disk is protected by a plastic holder. The digipak is very different to others and stands out. The bar code is found at the back in the bottom left hand corner. Its very visible because its white unlike its surroundings which is a wooden varnish. When the digipak is opened out faced down, the spine is blended in a cannot visible be seen. But when it's facing up it reveals a thick white line.
