Digipak Analysis - Enema Of The State by Blink-182
This is the 6 panel digipak for Enema of The State by Blink-182, released 1999. The most popular tracks on this album are, What’s My Age Again? Adams song and All The Small Things. Blink-182 are known as quite a humorous band, which is recognised through the photography on the digipak; where the iconic band are being like their usual selves and reflecting the genre of pop-punk.
There is no writing on the digipak, reflecting the band's braking conventions of albums; band name and album title on the front and the track listing on the back. The track listing instead uses the colours blue and red to create symbols, which generally have not much relevance to the digipak, but again resembles their quirkiness. This also compliments the nurse who is wearing red and blue. The image on the CD contrasts with the image in the background, with the same girl on the CD as on the front of the whole digipak but the boys in their boxers behind the CD, suggesting the target audience are male as the male gaze is being used.
