3. Conventional Features
 Black Holes & Revelations contain many of the conventional
features, that most digipaks have, including:
 Band and album name
 Tracklist
 Barcode
 Booklet
 Record label
The booklet also follows the conventional
feature of containing lyrics to the songs,
presented in a clear, easy to read way. This is a
convention of digipaks that has become more
commonly used, as it gives the consumer
another way to get more involved and
interested in the album.

4. Theme
 The digipak follows an apocalyptic theme throughout, with the
image on the front panel of the four horsemen of the apocalypse
(relating to “Revelations” in the title – the book of revelations),
sitting in a wasteland. This image is also on the first two pages of
the booklet, meaning that this theme is used throughout the
digipak. Inside, the CD tray shows an image of the sun, which is
also the design of the Artist name on the booklet front cover. This
means that it follows a space theme, as the rest of the inside panels
are black, relating to “Black Holes in the title. Overall, the digipak
follows an orange and black theme throughout.

5. Imagery
 The key piece of imagery on the digipak is the front
and back covers (and the first two pages of the
booklet). This is because they directly relate to the title
of the album. The extreme long shot of the four
horsemen of the apocalypse, sitting in a desolate
wasteland is a reference to the book of revelations,
which is part of the digipak title.

6. Typography
 On the front cover, the Artist and album name is
represented, in a sans serif font, in capital letters. This
typography is repeated on the booklet front cover, with
the same font. This time however, the black colour is
replaced with imagery of the sun.

7. Band Image
 Through the digipak, two images of the band are used, one
on the inside of the actual digipak, and one inside the
booklet.
 The images portray the band as serious musicians. They
have chosen to be presented in this way as they want to be
seen as professional musicians who care about making
good music for their fans.

8. Is Genre Suggested
 One genre Muse are associated with is ‘space rock’.
This genre is suggested through the digipak. For
example, the design on the CD tray appears to be of
the sun/a star, showing a direct relation to space. As
well as this, the title of the album is “Black Holes &
Revelations, meaning that the genre of ‘space rock’, is
directly suggested in the title of the digipak.
