This album cover is by Red Hot Chili Peppers, the name of this album is Mother's Milk. You can see in the top right hand corner the album name, this typography that it is in looks like it is hand written, also it is quite small and not very eye catching. Also in the bottom right hand corner there is the Red Hot Chili Peppers logo, their star motif! This could be recognised from Red Hot Chili Pepper fans. It is quite small but noticeable as it has colour on it unlike the picture itself.
The house colours are black white and red, this makes it very simple and the red stands out on top of the black and white, they may have used red to stand out because of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, this makes it stand out even more and could make it more noticeable to audiences.
The picture used on the album cover is of a women naked with the band in her arms, this could be a connotation towards the album name 'Mother's Milk', the woman in the picture could be seen as a mother and the band as her children. The picture itself stands out because it is quite large, there is no direct address, then woman is looking at the band and the band is looking at her, it makes you want to know more about the album and why there is a connection between this woman and the band and who she is.
The camera angle used for the photo is a medium close up as you can see the top half of her body. This draws the audiences attention becuase she is naked and could attract a male audience.
Over all i like this album cover as it is different to other album covers i have seen, if i saw it in a shop i would want to buy it because it looks like it has a story behind it and i want to know the story.
