Here is our idea for our album's front and back cover, as drawn by Ali.
The drawing on the right would the be the front cover. The album's title No More is a nod to the album's 'single' (our music video) as well as a fitting title for the actual album which would have a general over-all concept on social messages. The artist's name Roni Size would also be on there. The cover shows four silhouettes stood on a hill against a landscape of clouds and sun and birds. This image represents that these four figures (actually inspired by the four gang members in our video) want no more of society's crime and injustices and so have moved to this paradise land. The back cover's image will be faded into from the front's image into one of a knife together with flowers, which conveys a mixed representation of violence and peace. The fictional track list would be listed on one side of the image.
Our current ideas for images on the inside of the case are influenced by the video either an image of: one of the guys looking into the mirror, one of them smoking (perhaps only showing the cigarette and the smoke), policeman in the spotlight (perhaps showing him from behind), and an image of one of the masks we will use. Below is an early draft drawing we did when making ideas, but the image on the right is the one I have mentioned of the guy looking into the mirror.
Whilst Ali drew the front and back cover, me and Aiden came up with 5 fictional track names each for the track list:
1. Tell Me
2. What Is It
3. Thunder
4. Rocket Storm
5. Fire
6. No More
7. Dove
8. Pimp Town
9. Corruption
10. Last Dance
11. Final Stand
Names for the tracks came to me under influence of the whole society-theme, like Dove (a symbol of peace), Corruption (a society injustice), and Final Stand (like a final stand against society's inequalities, as well as being the final song).
