Another example of a Digipak from the alternative-rock genre, from the band Enter Shikari. The entire digipak is made in black and white, creating higher contrasting more effective images. The bright white lights also made the other components of the images look a bit more like sillohettes which is another convention of the rock genre. The photographs also link to the album as they're photographs from that albums tour. Similar to the ACDC digipak this album also has huge writing which makes it stand out even more than the photograph itself, telling us that the writing is most sybolic for the band. The font on the cover of the CDs are consistent through their music videos, album covers and band merchandise, the font used for their writing is in a way symbolic for the band, as its consistently repeated throughout their products.

This is another example of digipaks winthin the rock genre, this is a digipak from one of Linkin Parks CDs. Again similar to the Enter Shikari album the photographs used for this are in black and white. This album cover however follows Andrew Goodwins theory on creating a star image, as the inside of the digipak contains close-ups of the band members. The contrast of the photographs are very high and the backgronds are very plain and simplistic, making it look more effective as the band members stand out more.The bands name is written in black bold letters and the contrast of the black writing and white background makes it more prominent. The CD itself has the triangle which is the bands symbol. The back of the album also has the chinese translation to appeal to chinese audience as well. The black silloettes of the band members also conform to their music videos of tracks from the album showing synergy between the products.
