The front cover ideas:
Apple design:
This idea links to the inter textual reference of Adam and Eve within the music video, which I thought would be an interesting idea to link throughout the project, which is also why I have thought about naming the album "Deadly Sins" as this idea makes people think of rebellious actions and links to rock as rock is seen as quite a rebellious genre. However, I may get a hand holding this apple as it would look more interesting, especially if there was a tattooed arm holding the apple as the links to rebellion even more. If I did get a hand to hold the apple it would be in quite an aggressive manner in order to link to the genre even more and to intrigue fans. I think that this idea is good for linking to rock as this genre does not typically include the band on the front cover.
Woods design:
Here I have displayed the lead in a wooded area with a snake around his neck and the female temptress on the floor as if to drag him down with temptation. This idea links to the theme of temptation as well, which is mentioned above. However, if I were to use this idea I would change it to a sketch as the male lead is not usually featured on the front cover of an album in the rock genre.
2nd Cover image:
Here is where a band image is typically placed. I have only drawn a generic image for the cover, but if I were to use this idea I would really have to think about costumes and positioning in order to represent the genre correctly.
