We did originally have the idea of using a motorway at night as our front cover background, however after looking at the pictures that Tom took during filming we saw that we had good enough pictures to edit them into potential front covers. Going through the pictures we saw that we had a great side angle picture and there was enough room to put in a guitar which would really help put across what genre the music on this album is from. Above was our first design of the digipak front cover which Tom created after got the pictures we wanted.

After Tom created the digipak front cover we started to ask for some audience feedback and once again our classmates all liked the front cover but they felt the font was letting it down. This was the same problem on the magazine advert so we decided to use Foo Fighters actual font on this album as they had used this font on some of their previous album. After changing the font to what Foo Fighters have used the front cover looked more realistic and more like something you would expect to see on the shelves in HMV. However I discovered it wasn't only Foo Fighters who use the same font on more than one album, another well-known band also does this. Oasis have used the same font/emblem for no less than five albums. Below you can see that there are five albums each with the Oasis emblem on them and they can be found in the corners of the cover.
