History behind the cover - The main piece of history for the album 'Back in Black' is that it is dedicated to Bon Scott who had died on the 19th February 1980. At the time the band was thinking of disbanding but they continued on with encouragement from Bon Scott's parents.
Does it fit in with the band - In my opinion I think that the album cover does fit in with the band , I think this because of the style, colours and the overall quality of it. The main reason why is because it is suited towards the genre and the band, black colours, dark emotion and the style. Rock music is mainly dark, empty and has emotion. The cover uses dark colours, is aimed towards death and is empty (Only the titles).
Does it appeal to the target audience - I think that the album cover appeals to the target audience, I think this because it is dark and emotional. The majority of rock fans wear different clothes, live different life styles and live in similar ways. The music is the major part of the audience because they join together when listening.
Does it appeal to me / what it means to me - I think that the album only appeals to me through the songs, the reason why it does is because I listen to that genre and the band involved. This style of music is a part of me because it is the only style of music that I listen to.
