Advert Analysis – Bombay Bicycle Club 
The first thing I notice when looking at the advert is the use of a dull, drab colour 
scheme that is constant throughout the whole image. This is a reference to the 
name of the album because it seems like a “flawed” colour scheme, as there are 
no bright and vibrant colours, only dark blacks and maroon. The image that 
accompanies the advert is a photograph of a girl with a sad expression. This also 
helps give off the idea of “flaws” as it can be assumed that this girl is unhappy at 
one thing or another, maybe her “flaws”. Straight away we can already pick up on 
why certain things have been used. One thing about this type of music is that it is 
not meant to be mainstream, which is why the dull colours are used. The advert 
hints more towards realism than trying to look colourful as that is another 
element of the indie genre of music. The fact that the album description and the 
quote of a different font colour helps them both stand out separately and draws 
attention which helps get the message across.
