The Rasmus Hide From The Sun CD

Front:

Image:
The image is of a decayed butterfly
The butterfly looks derelict and mistreaten, showing the lack of compassion or emotion towards the album
The butterfly is a countertype to how butterflys are usually percieved or related to, butterflys have connotations of colour and vividness, yet this seems to have all the life drained out of it, this allows us to assume that the band is trying to break away from societys grasp of the media

Text:
"The Rasmus"
"Hide from the sun"
The writing on the rasmus matches the style of the album, there are decomposing leaves around the title, keeping with the theme of the album

Genre:
the creme background contrasts the tones of decaying
half of the background has been tainted with brown smudges

Target Audience:
The lack of colour suggests its for males
The way the image presents itself connotes a lack of respect commonly associated with teenagers
