A digipak is usually made of card and folded like a book. It usually contains the CD, artist information and often lyrics and posters. A digpak is an alternative to jewel casing and is often used for CD singles or special editions of albums. Ocassionally, a taller version of this can be used for DVDs.
This particular digipak is for the an acoustic album from Oasis. This band is typically from the indie genre. There is not much to show this on the album, other than the bottom of the acoustic guitar. This is important because instruments, such as guitars and drums, are used heavily within this genre. The artistr is not used on the cover, however, star image is reinforced with using the guitar, showing that the band are musicians.
The colours used on this digipak are quite neutral, using creams and browns. This colour palette reflects the nature of the album, chilled and laid-back. If bright colours were used, the consumer would expect upbeat, maybe electronic, music.
The font, of the album title and band name, is quite simple. It has been used to break up the empty space at the bottom of the cover.
