After debating over and over what album cover to do my blog on, I finally settled on Kanye West's latest album, Graduation.

Background information:

Hello everyone,
I decided to do my analysis on the CD album on Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory"
http://www.forfeitthegame.com/album-art-ht.html
This album sold over 24 million copies and made the #2 on the US billboard2000.
Their music is filled with deep lyrics, that touches the tip of the most uncomfortable, sadness, and anger that is pushed on you unexpectedly in life.
Most of the songs are influenced by Bennington's (lead singer) child hood.
Where there was:
- child abuse
- drugs
- a divorce
- and deep isolation

This article hits the nail on the head. What is going on? It's easy to see that R.E.M. is the artist, and that the song title is Supernatural Superserious, and besides that it looks random and pointless. It does fit the song in a couple of ways.

So going through this blog I cam across this article...

The author discusses how a couple of bands are opposed to iTunes Album Artwork, incase some of you don't know what this is referencing...in iTunes you can save and embed album covers into MP3 files and allow that artwork to display when sorting through your music and when also when a song from that specific album is playing.
