Examples of others artists digi-paks

I wanted to look at some examples of my favourite digipaks that have either been inspirational or I just love the look of them. I have chosen a digipak each of 4 different genres which are: Girls groups, indie, rap, pop and rock.

My favourite digipak created by a girl band is The Pussycat Dolls album - Doll Domination:

I like the way the front cover really represents the girl group and their songs. The title 'Doll domination' is represented by the girls posing on motor bikes looking powerful and strong.

My Favourite digipak in the rap genre is Eminems Relapse album:

Eminems Relapse album is my favourite rap artist digipak cover because it completely relates to his life at that moment in time and all the songs on the album. Relapse was Eminems album which he made after a long time spend away from the music industry doing drugs and drinking. The album is about his life at that time and his recovery. I love how his face has been created out of pills and there is a label like that on a drug prescription.

My favourite album artwork by some-one in the pop genre is Mika with his album Life In Cartoon Motion:




I think the artwork on this album cover is very interesting and is a great representation of pop as it is bright, colourful and wacky. It also is a visual image of the album title - life in cartoon motion. Therefore all the pictures are in cartoon and shows you what life of his life would be like in cartoon. It is also fun and interesting to look at.

My Favourite album digipak by a band in the indie category is The Strokes - Is This It:



This album cover is very interesting because it is very plain and simple using light colours such as white and grey. The black shiny glove stands out very well against the pale colour of the women. Although I don't think the image has much representation of the album it is still a clever album cover and is well known.

My favourite rock album digipak is by Kiss.

Kiss have made themselves stand out using a black background to contrast with the bright white face paint and the redness of their lips and tongue. Kiss have stayed true to themselves in this image as they are donning the face paint which has helped make them famous and iconic. Therefore when someone was to see this album cover the would know straight away that is is by Kiss.
