Album cover analysis - Ben Howard 'Every Kingdom'



Tittle

The Tittle in this album art work is very simple and bold to catch the eye of the reader. I like how it blends into the the lighting of the picture with the white light reflecting from the surface of the water on to the name of the artist. I also like the name of the album itself 'Every Kingdom' suggesting there is a kingdom beneath the water and that the man swimming is searching for it.


Image

The image on this album cover is again very simple with not alot going on. I like the fact that you have the different colour of blue gradually getting darker the further the man goes down suggesting mystery which again links in with the name of the album. The light hits the image very nicely in the top left hand corner. The way the bubbles are floating up to the top of the surface of the water remind me that the man has to return where he came from at some point and that he was perhaps looking for something again linking in with the name of the album.
