Above is the cd cover for the album ‘searchlights’ released by the band Shadows Chasing Ghosts. The greenish black squares are indented and spell out the words searchlights shadows chasing ghosts. There is an eye that could signify the searching side of things and the lights side is shown via the bluish lights in the cd’s background. Also the red writing pasted across the top of the album says ‘we’ve all lost our way home’, this is extremely contradicting as the album is named searchlights. Also, we see the album name and band name in the bottom corner. The bands my space page does not relate any to the bands album cover.

Above is the cd cover for the self-titled album of Ghost Of A Thousand, the album has no name and therefore there is no sense of album name writing on the cover. The name of the band is scattered diagonally across the cd, as it looks shaken. There is a brooding picture of a bull taking up the higher percentage of the album cover, the revaluates to the band as they use animals on their covers, the single for ‘Bright Lights’ had the picture of an octopus scattered across it. The bands own my space page does not have any relation to the cover in terms of imagery.

To the left is the album cover for Atreyu’s fourth studio album ‘Lead Sails, Paper Anchor’, the colour of black and red is normally seen with Atreyu, this could relate to blood and danger as the band are heavy. The images shown relate to the name of the album, there is a picture of both a ship and a man sinking, the name of the album shows that the ship was destined for sinking with ‘Lead Sails’ and a ‘Paper Anchor’, meaning the ship was going to sink and not be able to anchor itself. Unlike the other two, Atreyu’s official website has an extreme relation to the album cover, it looks exactly the same and it also has the same imagery.
