Digipak
Overall do you like the outside covers?
yes as they are in keeping with the bands image and genre.inside covers?
They are ok as we feel the band image is good and relates to brit rock however we feel the C.D is too busy.
How does the CD cover reflect the bands image?
The CD cover doesn't show the actual band this tells us that they are people who don't want to sell their image just the music.
how is the band promoted/sold to us?
The band is shown on the inside cover and are sold as a brit rock band, as they have the union jack in the background, They do look too boy band ish for the rest of the album theme, its also a lot brighter than the rest of the album
List the colours that are used?
The band use all the colours of the union jack throughout the entire album and website, this is a nice link to keep it is all following the same theme

What's on the spine?
There is nothing on the spine this makes it un-noticeable in someone's CD collection, this makes the album less recognizable

Home page
Overall is the home page good and why?
The home page is good, it has sufficient content including tour dates, social networking and merchandise to name a few features, it continues with the brit rock theme and has an appealing look
How does the home page reflect the band image?
The home page is very good at keeping up with the brit rock theme, it also has ciggerettes and alcohol all over the union jack, this is a stereotypical view of brit rock but is also interesting.
How is the band promoted/ sold to us?
The word "BLUR" is all over the home page this keeps giving us the name of the band to sell it to us, they also have the music video playing on screen to get you into the music, this is key to getting people to buy your music, they also have links to their merchandise and spotify page to sell actual items to the audience
What text is used on the home page?
The information on the website is necessary information but is not overwhelming, the information is only used for news and the rest is images and tour dates
What colors are used?
The home page continues the theme of having the union jack and covering it with the cigarettes and alcohol. the colours are all the same as the CD cover for example red, white and blue.
Digipak
Overall do you like the outside covers?
The outside cover is really good, it follow the idea of the album title "fiction"
inside covers?
The inside image of the band seems too "boy bandish" and doesn't fit in with the rest of the images on the album
How does the CD cover reflect the bands image?
The CD cover doesn't show the actual band, it shows a box of brightly colored toys this leads us to believe that its pop music
how is the band promoted/sold to us?
The band don't seem that bothered about their image as they have a really relaxed attitude and on the CD photos their faces are covered with lego heads.

List the colours that are used?
They use allot of pastely colors throughout, this makes the audience see them as a bright pop group and not an indie group
What's on the spine?
The spine is very plain, it only has the album name and artist name on it, this is easy to identify by the spine alone

Home page
Overall is the home page good and why?
The home page is good by keeping within the same theme as the digipak, but seams to simple and provides little detail
How does the home page reflect the band image?
The images of the actual band makes them seem not bothered about their image as they dont look directly at the camera and all of them are looking at the floor
How is the band promoted/ sold to us?
The band dont seam to be selling themselves in these images as it doesn't show them as a band and has no link to music
What text is used on the home page?
Apart from links the only text on the page is the word Maccabees, this is boring for people who want quick information without having to go searching for it
What colors are used?
They use the same as on the digipak, so it makes the audiance think of them as a bright pop group and not ind
