Research into Ancillary Task

I have searched for the album and single covers that Chase and Status have used in the past and have found these:

The most noticeable common theme that the four covers have is a colour palette of around three colours: black and/or white seem a favourite, but the desaturation of the two colours are contrasted with a much more vivid and brash colour. In the cover of 'Pieces', there is a number of shades used of the green, but the shattered effect ensures that the boldness is  not lost.


They are also very simple in their design with the band and name of the CD as the most prominent feature. They also all have some form of a design as a background or underneath the text: the dog in 'No More Idols', the band members in 'More Than Alot', the small picture of the dog in 'Blind Faith' and the shatter design in 'Pieces'. This meets the audience's needs as the CD will be easily recognisable in a shop as it is a common theme for Chase and Status to use.
