Album Art
After learning that the career I am pursuing is that of an album artist, many people have asked me what album art I like. Therefore, I have decided to make a post about my favorite album covers. Feast your eyes.
My very favorite is Jet's debut album, Get Born:
I really like how the artist mixed a drawing with photographs, and I think that the design is very visually appealing.

I don't really dig his music, but every time I am at a music store, I am drawn to the cover of this album. I think the color scheme is highly effective.
Another album with an amazing cover is the Beatles' Yellow Submarine:
The very effective use of space may not be very apparent to many of you until you see how bad the stretched out DVD version looks:
I also really like the cover of the movie soundtrack:
It is a very simple design, but what makes it memorable is the iconic image of the Yellow Submarine. It is effective because of the aesthetically pleasing split complementary color scheme.

I like the Jet cover. The Yellow Submarine one makes me dizzy just remembering the movie.
James Blunt's music reminds me of John Mayer's. In other words, it reeks of mold.
My dearest readers,
I am in no way condoning listening to James Blunt. If you are unfamiliar with him, please keep it that way for your own sanity.
Deepest regards,
