Anaylsis of Stereophonics' Album Cover

  • The black and white is a good effect to use on an album cover. The background of this is light which makes the band stand out as they are all wearing black tops and trousers.
  • One band member is stood in front of the others and is more in view, this shows that he is the front man of the band, which is a convention used in this genre.
  • The band name "Stereophonics" is in a bold black colour, making it stand out on the background. It's very eye-catching and is the first thing you see when you look at the album cover.
  • The background looks real and doesn't have any props or extras added into the background, this could be a metaphor for the bands music and the band as people.
I like the simplicity of the album cover and that the band name is what stands out the more, this might be an element that we use on our own album cover.
