Bombay Bicycle Club are an indie rock band which is highlighted in their digipak cover for 'Shuffle'. It is a very unique and different style of cover, and doesn't show the band, which is quite typical for artists of the indie rock genre. The font is quite simple and the bands logo is in the right bottom corner while the title of the album is in the left bottom corner. The pastel colours are very effective in creating a mellow but bright feel to the album.
The picture of the feet link to the name of the song 'Shuffle', and the images and colours coming out from the feet are used in most of the band's digipak covers. It has become their trademark. The image also suggests that the band like to be individual and creative with their covers.
The imagery is identified with the artist, thus making it easier for the viewer to associate their digipak covers with them and their songs.
what story does the imagery tell? what are they saying to the viewer? M
