fun.
fun. - Aim and Ignite - Album Cover
How do you define it? Well for me it’s a band, a really good band and for lack of a better word, fun. Some pun intended I guess.
Since there is so much music out there, it’s hard to stay up-to-date on all bands, genres, tours, launches, etc; So what I like to do about once or twice a month is purchase a new album without listening to it based on the album artwork. Silly I know, but why not? I like graphic design so I thought: ‘This cover looks interesting, their music probably is as well.’.
So the album cover to the right is why I chose this particular band. It was fun, unique and to be quite honest, didn’t make much sense to me. It appears to me that a boy scout or young private is taking aim to shoot at something and a peacock strangely lands on his rifle, mocking him. Like ‘You can’t shoot me, just stick to playing that bugle son.’ After a good laugh between the two, the peacock flies away and the boy lowers his gun and chooses to pick flowers instead. Okay so that is really far-fetched and I totally made that up, but it could happen. Maybe.
What do you think about the album cover? Does it tell a story? Does it make nice use of muted primary colors?
