Similiarities - Our Digipak and Bruce Springsteen's CD cover

When we designing our album cover we came across Bruce Springsteen's 'Born In The U.S.A' album. We really liked the idea and decided to inspire our album cover by it, as the genre was similar.

The first image shows the text we used on the front cover of our CD. We decided to keep the font clear and simple and the colour as black. Similarly the front cover of Bruce Springsteen's album uses a very simple and clear font, although the colour is navy blending with the whole theme of his cover. On both the covers, the name of the artist and the album name are the only pieces of text on the front cover, keeping the main focus on the image on the cover. 

On both the front covers a object has been placed on, or near the artist which symbolize them. On ours, we placed a guitar beside the artist as it plays an important part in our artist's music. The image on Bruce Spingsteen's album cover consists  of the back of a man with a red hat sticking out of a jeans pocket. This may be an accessory that the artist wears which represents him.

Above are the two front covers. You are not able to see the artist's face, which is quite mysterious. The costumes are casual, both wearing jeans, giving off a chilled vibe.
