A
convention for the images used on indie rock products is the use of
scenic images and locations. This may be because the different
environments can portray different meanings which could relate to the
theme or mood of the album. For example sunlight in the image may
mean the album has a lighter mood whereas the use of violent weather
may mean the album has a darker mood. The use of natural lighting is
also very simple which like the text may be part of the way the genre
uses mainly non-synthesise sounds. This use of these images makes it
easier for the audience to get an idea about the theme or mood of the
album making it easier for them to decide whether to buy it or
whether they want to listen to it’s music. This helps the artists
to advertise their product and it’s message.
