4 album cover analysis


BECK THE INFORMATION

The Information is the tenth (and seventh major-label) studio album by American alternative rock musician Beck, released in October 2006

The packaging for Beck’s latest album The Information consists of a blank grid cover and a random set of stickers for each release designed by various artists. The idea of the album is to mix and match as you choose to create your own custom cover.

COLDPLAY X&Y

X&Y is the third studio album by British rock band Coldplay, released 6 June 2005 in the United Kingdom

The artwork for X&Y was designed by graphic design duo Tappin Gofton, formed by Mark Tappin and Simon Gofton. The image, which is visualized through a combination of colours and blocks, is a graphical representation of the Baudot code, an early form of telegraph communication using a series of ones and zeros to communicate. The code was developed by Frenchman Émile Baudot in the 1870s, and was a widely used method of terrestrial and telegraph communication.

THE SHINS CHUTES TOO NARROW

Chutes Too Narrow is The Shins' 2003 follow-up to their debut album, Oh, Inverted World. The album title comes from a lyric in the song "Young Pilgrims".
In the video of the album I saw a lot of bright colours used and also lyrics of some of the songs that where on the album where also used.

CHEMICAL BROTHERS – PUSH THE BUTTON

In this album we can see that as we go through the packaging the design background of the album is made out of lyrics from songs that are on the album, we also see tools as if the album is built up of words. 

Push the Button is the fifth studio album by English big beat band The Chemical Brothersfirst released in January 2005.
