Anotheraspectof thisdigipackthatI findinterestingiswhere theyare

The seconddigipackIhave chosento analyse isa traditional styledone.
ImmediatelyInotice the brightyellowthemerunningthrougheachside of
the digipack. Itlooksalmostspraypaintedonthere,whichtome connotes

AnotherthingthatI noticedonthe
digipackisthat onthe leftside
there’sapicture of the twogirls

otherone in light.Thissuggeststhat
