The album, Journal For Plague Lovers by Welsh Alternative metal band Manic Street Preachers , actually had this album removed from the shelves of various stores due to the image. It was coincided inappropriate and that it promoted child abuse.James Dean Bradfield (Front man of the Manics) stated'Its ridiculous , various women artists can get away with exploiting their bodies to salivating males,This is minor compared'...
This is 'The Child with a Dove' by Picasso,from the Blue period. The child's face bears resemblance to that of Journal for Plague Lovers.Another interesting link between the two images is that Blue Period was a short period where Picasso focused on dark shades of Blue and Green occasionally warmed by other colours . As you can see , this technique has been used on the Album cover.
Badmotorfinger is a fantastic album released in 1992 by American outfit Soundgarden. Their music reflects the hard sounds of industrial the streets of Seattle , and challenges the US government of the time,via their socialist views expressed in their lyrics. The Red font is very similar to that of Russian propaganda art.

You have identified two interesting album covers but your evaluations are rather too brief and lacking substantial research particularly with regard to Soundgarden.
ReplyDeleteFor example which US government was challenged and how is the government challenged in this band's lyrics etc. Also you needed to post examples of Russian propaganda art to support your point.
Endeavour to engage in research and
to illustrate your points with strong evidence of research rather than writing off the top of your head. Use your knowledge to your advantage Jono.
Also you need to post planning of print productions onto your blog so that I can evaluate your ideas. This was due on your blog last week.
