The typography of this album cover is very bold and stands out a lot with the bright red and black colours and bold font. The title along with the rest of the album cover is quite simple, which suggests that the band is very simplistic. This goes on to show that they are not very mainstream or that they are not mainstream at all, as they are not going for the in your face look. This can also be seen by the fact that none of the band members are looking at the camera posing, but focusing on their music instead, therefore indicating dedication and devotion to their music (seen through all the instruments shown in the picture). They want their fans to know that music is all they care about and that they love sharing it. This shows how hard working they are.
Unlike the typography, the background is not very bold, but pleasing to the eye. This way the band blend in with the background which gives it a nice touch, and the audience at the same time can focus on the main image.
Throughout, the main colours of the album are red, black and white. As mentioned before the red font helps the album name stand out against the white background. The contrast between the red and black font draws the fans' attention to both the album name but also the band's name.
The whole 'indie' look is portrayed through the band sitting around playing their guitars, and their clothing - skinny jeans and the tops they are wearing - the stereotypical look for an indie band.
