Digipack Deconstruction

Razorlight

Front Cover

The front cover of this album shows the name of the band and the title of the album in the samefont, which flows, suggesting creativity and a free spirit. The band name and title are placed in the corner and a small in comparison to the images,suggesting that all focus should be on the images. The collage of all the different images connote a scrapbook of a road-trip, reflecting the free spirit font of the band name and album title, creating a brand image. The colours are very understated and simple, possibly reflecting the music style of Razorlight.

Inside Cover

The inside cover is completely different from the outside cover, as it is very simple and does not include any colour. The dotted pattern is different from the front cover as there are no images or collages. There is a handwritten message which looks like it has been roughly cut and stuck on, reflecting the collage theme of the front cover.

Disk

The disk continues the theme presented on the inside cover of a dotted pattern. This disk does not include either the name of the album or the title of the album and is again very simple and understated, showing the theme of the album . It does however include the name of the record label, suggesting that they played a vital role in creation of the album. The lack of writing and simple pattern also connotes mystery and suspense, leaving the audience yearning for album.

Back Cover

The back cover utilises both themes presented in this album, connoting a story being brought together and finished. The dotted pattern used on the inside cover and disk, is used for the background and the theme of a scrapbook is used for the song titles and copyright disclaimer. They could also be seen as suitcase tags, reflecting the holiday theme of the front cover. The colour scheme is again very understated using only black red and white.
