paramore CD covers














The first CD cover of the paramore covers is the single of misery business which is the music video I have just analysed and this CD cover really links to the song but also the video as the title of the song is shown on the CD cover, but also its very dark feel to the cover which can link to the song having a deeper meaning. Furthermore, they are all sat in shirt and tie which links to the video as it gives a school like feeling to the cover which shows a direct link to the school location in the video but also on the cover they seem to be in trouble which is shown at the end of the video when they doing bad things to the girl in the blue and so is the girl in blue also when I suggested angry in the video this could be shown by the scribbling in the corner of the cover which again further links the video to the CD cover also the cover shows a picture of the band to show that the music is their music and their CD. The next CD cover is the album called RIOT and this is the album that misery business is also on and is shown in the video as the background where the band is playing is covered in this writing and font. This cover is very different from others I have shown as the cover doesn't show the band name but it shows a artistic picture of the band to show that band is unusual and doesn't always follow conventions with anything they do, also the RIOT is the name of the album is highlighted in orange as it plays with colour of the lead singers hair, so then you actually know its paramore's music and their album.
The next 3 Covers all have quiet a nature feel as the 'brand new eyes' as a butterfly which links with another song on that album, the 'decode' single is from the twilight film so the picture is very mysterious but also with trees and sky showing a forest which links to the film and the last one ' all we know is falling' is also linked with forest and nature but also shows songs that include a sofa. The thing that links all of these covers apart from RIOT is that they all have the same font for the band name to show that is there font and to add emphasises its their music, also ' all we know is falling' and 'brand new eyes' have the same title font to show that the band is linking things together so it will link back to the band itself.
All the way through these CD covers you can really see how different the band is from normal mainstream conventional bands and they really show themseleves through their music and the covers as they always have a different picture, but keep some things the same as its to appeal to there audience, also it shows me that my CD cover doesnt just have to the band on the front it can have something on the front that links all the songs together ot just from one song a symbloic image from it, also the RIOT albums shows me it doesnt have to a photograph it can be a drawing style CD cover. This has given me plently to think about for my products and I what I should do for my own pop genre of music.
