We did not hear any of the music before analysing the albums and the covers.
Marlowe
“It’s Turning Me on” EP
Woman sat putting lipstick on
Red background, black image.
Woman wearing short skirt and making
herself look nice with make up could imply a club mix. The type of music that
is quite relaxed and chilled. Looks a bit like the Maroon 5 Songs about Jane
album.
The girl looks like it’s hand drawn which
implies a sense of “real music”.
I like this cover, and would probably pick
it up.
“Darksparklecorner” Album
Child sat in bed, looking scared.
Music that is inappropriate for children.
I wouldn’t pick this album up.
Dated image – looks like the boy in ‘The
Snowman’
Looks 80s – music based on this era? For
those who identify with that period?
“A Day in July” Album
Makes me more confused over what style
music they are.
Aimed at older generation,
Organic artist impression.
Culturally diverse.- not in the uk.
Isolation – lyrics means something?
Much lighter than other albums.
“Deep breathe fake air” Album
A scientific approach - more analytical lyrics.
Continuous colour theme.
Title implies some sort of critique “fake
air
The overall impression I get, is that over
time the band have matured a lot. The music style is still not obvious to me. I
get the impression that they write their own stuff and are into deep lyrics.
Testcard
“Lines” Album
Indie style, laid back but still has clever
lyrics.
Based upon the fact that the image is very
precisely drawn.
Simplicity.
Unplugged. – testcard means offline.
Roja
“Promises I should have kept”
Spanish.
Hand drawn element
Lasso
Woman on a horse
Drums –horses feet.
