The Prodigy- "Invaders Must Die" Cover Analysis

Invaders Must Die Cover Analysis

This is the single cover for The Prodigy's single, "Invaders Must Die". The colours are similar to that of the music video as both have a black and white theme with the odd flash of orange. This orange contrasts against the rest of the colour scheme as it is vibrant against a monochrome background, the orange on the cover may be a representation of the band and may be illustrating that they are bold, bright and stand out from the rest of the music industry. The single also features The Prodigy's own personal font, which allows it to be recognisable and the audience can therefore make links between The Prodigy and their franchise. The font itself is very rebellious looking and even has a graffiti style to it, which portrays the band as being young, and again relates to the rebellious feel to the band. The intertextuality at the bottom of the single cover features a similar scene to that in the video, which links the video and the single together and also allows the orange font stand out, making the cover look sophisticated and well thought out. The black background and font also contrast to the white background and orange font which enhance the boldness of each individual colour and again, links to the music video as black and white are the colours used.
