I have been researching digipacks similar to my genre. I have bee looking through forums, blogs, images and wikipedia on different fan arts and exclusive digipacks from many different bands. Some including Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Dream Theatre, The Beatles, Tool, Creed, Sound-garden, Riotgod and many more. I want to get a good idea of how many other bands in my genre style and theme their digipacks and the sort of images and text they may use. One similarity I have picked up on on many of the art is that they all have a vintage look to them, they have faded edges or it looks like the image itself is old and starting to fall apart. I have also seen that many of the older bands use abstract images and they have a lot of symbolism behind them. Many of the bands use simple images, this may be because at the peak of their popularity they did not have the technology to create impressive art, with some bands it would have been around 20 years ago, well before Photoshop. Here are some images of fan art and album covers I have found on blogs and search engines. Having many images will give me a better idea and inspiration on how to style my own.
