Because I'm going deeper and deeper, harder and harder, getting darker and darker, let's shut it down. Pound the alarm

Just for laughs xx 

 

A long stalled project because i'm bad at finalising things and compiling them. I think this album is so amazing and infinitely inspiring, what I really wanted to show was Lana Del Ray. The transition between Lizzy Grant to Lana Del Rey. I feel like the defining look of that is Lana in the short film Poolside. She looks insanely good there. All the images of Lana used in this packaging are screencaps from the short film which I have retouched and further edited to make look like official photographs and to improve the quality greatly for print. I used the official cover art as a main inspiration because I think even though it's very low-tech it still has a great atmosphere in it, so I wanted to create something similar. The atmosphere in this album to me is very noir-ish, so I chose to use all grayscale images in the booklet, an effect with sunken highlights which makes the images feel quite sultry.

Gatefold LP 12” Vinyl. 
The blue vinyl is the only striking colour here. It's a nod to Lana's homemade videos and her love for party store toy aquariums. It's the opposite to the yellow I featured prominently through the album design.

I've been working on this on / off for so long! Please tell me what you think and be sure to find any lyrics corrections because it's inevitable I probably messed something up!

Lana Del Ray cancelled after today's events.
 
Ben's art direction for bbtm is gold I had to do it myself for this
 

i finally found the perfect pictures to use for these covers. the paradise and the unreleased covers are definitely inspired by glam 60s - 70s vixens. like if a bond girl was a singer on the side lol.
 
for the ultraviolence one, i wanted a kind of dark/almost gritty rock feeling to it. like a rock or metal album cover from the late 80s or the 90s. it's simple but conveys a story imo!

Thanks for all the feedback, it's appreciated a lot. I've been experimenting with different retro styles for the covers I've been making and I've come up with these:
 

 

 
The BTD one was inspired by 40s/50s singer vinyl covers and the new Honeymoon cover was inspired by specifically Nina Simone's vinyl covers.

Wow those are REALLY good ! I can already picture finding the second one, in an old flee market, at a vinyl stand. You know, those 45t, dusty and dry, yellowed by time ... I'm getting a bit carried, here ! But that's really what they inspire me ! 

Oh my God!!! I'm stanning!!! You really have an eye for this! The layouts and colours are incredibly put together!
