Iron Maiden 'Somewhere In Time' album cover

Below (and left) is the inlet/inside booklet, back cover, and front cover of the album 'Somewhere In Time' (1986) by British heavy metal band Iron Maiden, formed in 1976 by bassist and primary songwriter Steve Harris. The band's biggest songs include 'Run To The Hills', 'The Trooper' and 'Fear Of The Dark'

The album inlet/booklet features info and images of the band with their instruments as well as song lyrics and album credits/released dates.

The back cover (below) shows a picture of the band live in concert, this is so that the viewer can see who the band is/what they look like live/how they are presented.                                                                     


The song tracklist is on the left, also in a digital font and numbered in white. On the spine of the CD, there is a long and narrow image of a part of the bands' demonic album mascot 'Eddie', the idea is that as you collect and line up all the CD's, the picture of Eddie gets bigger, as shown on the right.

The font of the front of the album cover is chunky and spiky, the viewer would be able to establish this as a rock/metal artist. The album title, 'Somewhere In Time', is also in a digital style font which suits the theme of the album - 'time' and 'future'. There is no image of the band on the front cover, instead there is an image of the band's demonic mascot 'Eddie' which appears on every album and single cover.
