conventions of the digipak does not branch out to a specific type of
audience.
The background of the album is quite generic with the colour (grey) with
an image of a pathway leading to the Earth (embarks a journey). It looks
as if there is a journey involved for the figure which is standing on the
path, the image surrounding the figure looks like a hive/cave due to the
coloured shapes.

ties in well with the colour scheme.

members. The photographs are slightly blurred
and are taken in black and white. This relates to
the artistic and serious side of the band,

the mood. This gives connotations of the music
and genre.

horizontal lines. This creates a theme for the
band.

the front cover. The front cover of the
album is colourful, whereas the colour
scheme for the disc is dark. This could
arouse a more serious tone for the band.

majority of space on the cover. This creates a
brand image and presents an established image
for the audience.

displayed on the front cover of the album cover
and the rest of the current cover is black and
white.
There are high buildings displayed in the background of the
image. The distance between the buildings and the band creates
a sense of dominance for the band as they’re larger than the
buildings .
