Poster Analysis

This is album poster of Demon Days by Gorillaz, Released 2005. This

poster feature all of the necessary key parts of a poster, mainly of the band

members, 2D the Vocalist, Nooble the Guitarist, Russell the

Drummer,Murdoc ?. The poster was designed to look like the profile

pictures of criminals to link to the characters backgrounds and past, again

linking to the theme of the album and title which refers to each individuals

past, their ‘Demon Days’. The white and black backgrounds give a sense

of purity and seriousness to this otherwise rebellious and outlandish

behaviour as scene in their music videos. The idea of this is to connote the

sense of danger about the group. The basic font in white is designed to

keep the attention on the four band members but still be noticeable against

the black background.
