The font used is very mythical looking and so links with the theme of Neptune- who is the God of the sea.
The font is very ancient looking, possibly a used in ancient Greece.
The title of the album is 'Valley of Neptune'- Neptune the mythical God of the sea and so the blue background and theme of the advert links to this.
The coral seen to the left could also link to this them of the sea.
The colours used, a blue and purple looking theme, could be a possible space theme, linking to the planet Neptune.
The spots of white could be interpreted as stars and so would follow the theme of space.
The largest text size used is the title of the artist 'Jimi Hendrix' which makes his name stand out.
The white writing on the top and bottom of the advert is on top of a darker colour of blue in the background, possibly symbolising the deeper parts of the sea.
The sexual thinking look on Jimi's face making eye contact with us is catching the audiences attention, and could possibly stereo typically linked with the artist who is linked with drugs, sex and alcohol.
The rule of thirds is used through the image of Jimi Hendrix being a prominent image to establish who he is.
Three predominant colours are used: Black, white and red.
The band name stands out the most in the colour white, on the black background, its opposing colour. This may have been done to make it stand out, to make the audience remember and associate the album name with the band.
The name of the band is also highlighted in capital letters, to make them stand out even more.
The name of the album is in another colour, red, which makes it stand out, not as much as the name of the band, but is clearly visible and does still stand out.
The colour of the album name, is also associating with red heart grenade, which shows blood on a hand, therefore, the name of the album name may be associated with blood.
The grenade in the shape of the heart is a symbol of the album, which can be seen on the CD and the album digipak. The colour of the heart grenade stands out and is very memorable and will have some relevance to the band and the name of the album.
