The document provides summaries of two album covers:
1) Ed Sheeran's album cover stands out with unique font and a large central symbol. It signals he is different from other pop artists and draws attention. The text indicates it includes popular tracks and extra songs fans will enjoy.
2) Gorillaz's album cover also uses distinctive text and colors that make it stand out. The album title grabs attention. The text details the release date and shows the band members are close. It directs people to the band's website for tour dates.
Both covers are eye-catching and aim to attract fans, particularly younger audiences, by signaling the artists' distinct styles.
