Analysis Of An Indie DigiPack

I looked at an indie Band called 'Bombay Bicycle Club' to explore the ways in which an indie band has represented themselves on their album cover:

Front:

• Image is eyecatching, portrays a narrative
• The band is absent from the cover and are instead represented through an image which is common to the indie genre.
• Image is black and white, contrast to the blue writing
• The logo of 'Bombay Bicycle Club' is directly centre of the album 
•  Includes a blue sticker with online and additional information
• Consitent colour theme throughout entire album, Black and white images and then blue writting.

Inside left side:

• Writing on the inside 'Insert this disc into your computer to access an exclusive session and films or go to www.bombaybicyleclubmusic.com for further info'. Provides a website link for fans helps to further promotes the band and further showcase their music 
• Image, is abstract, continued black and white theme, gives a dated effect to the image.

 Inside right side:

• Shows a similar image to the front cover
• Plastic holder for CD, placed over back image, can therefore only see the crowds in the image, perhaps representing the fans
• CD design contains a segment of the front cover, of an indivudal, high contrast and predominantly more black over white colour for the image which contrasts with the white disc. CD also contains same logo of 'Bombay Bicyle Club' which is used on the front cover. CD also has the  album covers name 'I had the blues but I shook them loose'
• Suprisingly the writting is not verticle

Back:

• Track listing on left hand side in white
• Bands name as part of the image, appears smudged, looks like a sticker appears to mark the property of the album as belonging to the band
• Again, black and white image and then blue writing
• Provides website link again and link to the bands myspace
• Record Company label mentioned
• Barcode in top centre
