With looking at the front cover of the Scripts new album, Silence & Faith, you get the sudden feeling of what the songs within the album are about. With firstly looking at the picture, of the two hands holding each other, and also the representation of how the skin colours are different from one another, you feel the unity. As it allows you to jump to conclusions, of why this has been done. When I first looked at it, it came to mind that this may have been to done to represent friendship and to encourage that we all are one, no matter what race we are. However other people may have different opinions, depending on their personality. The cover is presented with the bands “trademark” which is the same on the other albums, for example on the image next to it of their past album. The cover has a fragile look to it, almost as if the cover has been screwed up as there are lines on the cover where the folds have been made. There isn’t much writing on the album either conveying that the image does all of the “talking”. The colour and style of the “beige” and “stony” colour has been developed throughout the image of the band and also has been developed through the album. With there not being a picture of the band on the front cover, it alludes that everything isn’t about them, and also considers that their audience has been considered. However if you look at a band such as JLS their album has images of them as a group and the booklet has a considerable amount of photos. When I first took a glance at the album cover it didn’t appear eye catching however when you analyse it in depth, it conveys a subtle message, that the problems in society are important. This encourages you to be more open when thinking opposed to narrow.
