The use of blue suggest
tranquillity how ever
grunge music is to do with
anger and frustration.

Materialistic goods
were popular in the
1980’s – Nirvana
rebelled against
the thought of
being so
materialistic.

This completely
contrasts the genre
of music.

This album cover explains
that we are taught to be
materialistic and greedy
from birth – This baby
cannot swim yet it is
diving in water after
money risking its life.

A baby connotes
innocence.

Money connotes
corruption,
capitalism, greed
and wealth.

Innocence vs
corruption.

The album cover
seems to be calm
but it is far from it.
Very discomforting
colour scheme.

The smashing of a guitar
shows anger and bitter
edge.

This would attract
customers attention
so they will buy it.

These are both
punk values

The fact that he is
smashing a guitar at a
live show, shows that
their concert is very
lively and energetic

The clash’s London
Calling album was a
rip off of Elvis
Presley's album.

Also suggests that
the punk rock genre
also involves
catharsis

Suggesting that Elvis has his time of fame
and popularity now its ‘our turn’.
