CD covers

From looking at these at these covers, we can see that the whole album has a 'Gothic' look, with a dark metallic effect. Using a black and white scale. The reason for this is to give the album a rebellious effect.
From the front cover, the main focus is the artist. Dressed in black leather clothes and heavy dark makeup, the reason for the could be to tie in with the idea of being rebellious.

Conventions of CD covers is to have track titles on the back cover. The front cover will have a picture orsymbol/image which has some representation of the artist, or song lyrics. Also on the front they typically have the artists name and the album name. However thsi alvum cover has broken typical conventions as instead of having the artists name, initials are used instead. This works for this cover as the artist is known worldwide, so no longer needs to broadcast who she is.
