I set myself a task to create various alternative album artwork covers of my favourite songs/artists to develop my skills as a designer in my free time. It is fun to explore different styles and techniques in Photoshop and interesting to see how different cover art can portray a song in a different light.
Below you will see the Original Artwork first, then my alternative version.
When you listen to Bury a friend, you feel a sense of spookiness that shivers down your spine and I wanted to portray that in the album artwork. I felt like an illustration would give it a creepier and mysterious feeling and when I found the stock skull illustration, it immediately reminded me of the song.
