Advert/Album Examples

Advert/Album Examples

This is one of the most famous album art covers of all time simple
because it defined the punk genre. It is the picture of rebellion the
symbol of punk on a punk album. The devil may care smashing
a guitar really shows this off. Also the font type is appropriate as it's quite
a loud outstanding font like the punk music genre. Punk symbolised in a single album cover by one the biggest punk bands of all time.

They used a poster thats exactly nearly the same as the album cover. They did this to keep in with the conventions. Another thing that fits in with the Punk Rock genre is the black and white which really captures the image. The sharp font that's been used also comes under the conventions of the Punk Rock genre. Like the album cover Punk Rock symbolised in a poster.

Album/Advert Examples

Album/Advert Examples



At the top here is the album art from My Chemical Romances album black parade. The art work fits in totally with the conventions of the rock genre as you can see from the black and white theme and the sharp font. The art of the skeleton solider fits in with the title. This is because parades can be to do with marching bands. Black is consider to be an evil color which ties in with the dark skeleton figure.









This is the poster for this album which keeps in with the same black and white dark shaded theme and connects with the debut single from this album "Welcome To The Black Parade". You can see someone in a gown walking towards what looks like a family of darkly dressed marchers in military steam punk gear . The font is consistent with Album using the sharp font keeping still with the conventions of rock music.
