This is BIGBANG's second album cover. The reason why I like it is because its strictly type and vector images. For a band that is very visual and fashion savy its surprising that they only release type only album covers. An image is a moment in time. Type is timeless. Looking back on this album that was released a year ago, looking back on it five years, ten years maybe even twenty years it will still have a sharp visual impact. It uniquely displays the various songs on the album. The only problem I have with this album is that if you didn't know what it was called, there might be a little bit of confusion as to what the album is called because of all the other type. This band promotes themselves as a unique brand as well as promoting themselves as a part of the "YG family" (YG ent their record company). The YG building is vectored and featured on the album cover. These are their previous album covers that follow the same concept which only strengthens their brand essence.
