CD Cover Analysis

The Kooks


Another band we have looked at is the Kooks because they are a young and funky band who are also relevant to the style of music and fashion that the Geometrics and our created band are.
This is their first album cover in which we see the band doing what they do with their insturuments. It's quite a vouyeristic look in image as we see them in what looks like a dressing room or a rehearsal. They are all in the frame and as aposed to the other image of the arctic monkeys album cover it is the actual band who are on the cover and not an actor so you recognise the people themselves, this could be beneficial for the record label when promoting the look of a new band. That's something to consider.
The image is black and white but the font is in red to stand out against the image. It's also central and at the top being one of the focus points. I think it was important as this was a first album and they were promoting the band. As the band we are promoting we can assume it's their first album so we might want to consider how we can promote the image and name of the band.
