1. Oasis standing on the shoulders
of giants
This album cover by oasis is a very unique and
quite attractive album cover because of its
mixture of bight colors and interesting
scenery that they have used. The picture has
been well edited and you can tell that the
theme has been well developed and
understood. In respect to the location they
have decided to base it in new york and I
believe they have been able to achieve there
goal that is clearly indicated by there title to
the album. In regards to the title of the album
I believe that what they have done is very
credible and makes a lot of sense by using
some of the worlds tallest buildings in the
world to suggest that they are perhaps a
entire body of giant buildings out there are
that they are standing on a section or one of
the highest points a shoulder but this makes
clear that they must be even bigger buildings
to come. The shot of the empire state
building and the world trade center towers
show that there do keep getting bigger
The attention to detail is fantastic in this
shot. The photo took 18 hours of shooting
time to collect and that meant taing a photo
of the same spot every half an hour. And
then it was edited to make it look like
different times of day in different areas of
the photo which I think is one of the best
album covers I have ever seen.

2. The cd cover takes its idea off the sky in the
cover picture. The color changes as the day
goes on and you get a cross between light
and dark and an edited pattern which adds
to the over all feel of the sky
The overlapping of text at the top of the cd I
believe is quite effective as the oasis text is
transparent I believe making the cd look
cleaner and better looking it also allows that
background pattern to take over all of the cd
and make the disc look full and more
professional.
The songs are all clustered together, the font
is quite thick and easy to see although there
is a little bit of white in the background that
makes it difficult to look at letters on the
right and side
I believe this cover photo works well with the
album cover because the sky in the cover
photo links with the pattern on the cd and I
believe they have used the sky as the
background because these big buildings
stretch further and father in to the sky and
more and more into the unknown

3. The back cover of this album shows a totally
different picture. Still in new york this picture
carry's the same details of the pictures before
in terms it has the same design and it shows
the place a different times in a day that have
been shot and edited together. But this photo
is off different buildings but they are all big
skyscrapers and I bileve what this is tying to
say is that they go on forever and that they
will get more modern and better developed as
time goes on.
There is a better understanding for what
different parts of the day look like with the
different lighting schemes and it is interesting
to see all of the different splits of editing that
has been morphed into one picture
comprising of lots of individual photos
I believe that there is a message relating to
this and I think it is this, that while we seen
these buildings as giants there are only the
shoulders of something bigger that we can
possibly build in the future.
The song list is separated by a black back at
the side that really makes the white font
stand out and I think your eyes are drawn to
that looking at the cover. The way in which
they have the music traks written makes the
album back look more like a single release
cover than a full album release .
