Green Day- American Idiot DigiPak

Green Day - American Idiot DigiPak

I like the use of the hand grenade heart as it is a reoccurring image throughout the CD lyrics booklet as well as through the music videos from the album. The front cover is also quite simple as the colours used are quite plain and the black background makes the white and black stand out.

The reoccurring hand grenade is used again on the actual CD as it is the same hand holding the pin of the grenade. Also, the same colours, black, white and red, that are on the front cover, are found on the CD and lyrics booklet. I also like how the names of the band members are one of the first things you see when you open up the DigiPak as they are in bold letters.

I like the text in the booklet as it is in a handwritten style, with mistakes crossed out which makes the band seem more approachable to fans as it shows that they make mistakes just like everyone else. I also like the way that the pages have loads of doodles on them.

I like the back cover of the DigiPak as the only picture is of the pin from the hand grenade, which can be seen as though he has thrown the grenade at someone or something.
