Digipak Analysis 5 and 6 – Foo Fighters and Red Hot Chili

Peppers

The Foo Fighters are similar to the red hot chili peppers in the sense that they are marketed as artistic and independent. From their album art work to adverts they have used the same imagery of the band which bonds all mediums together and creates a strong image. They have also used their logo which features on the internal digipak booklet as well as in their music videos.

Although their album covers all look quite different they are all connected by the colours red and blue. This relates to their rebellious nature/character – they do not conform to society and are independent thinkers.

Shapes have been used as a key feature to link albums/artwork together such ad the diamond shape in the title of ‘Under the Covers’ and to frame the band in ‘The best of’ album.

The astrix symbol is another shape that has been used across a few mediums/covers.
