Front cover: rasterise a text layer of text consisting of the letter l spanning across the width of the page and stretch it down, creating a striped background, reducing the opacity if it's too bright. Use an informal font (Terminal?) and put it on a slant for the band name. Use newpaper clipping generators on the internet to create either the title of the song or maybe scatter them along the bottom of the frame. The clippings would be words or phrases associated from the song, such as "homicide" or "Two found dead". If we chose not to use the clippings for the title, we would do something similar to what we did with the band name, although it would be in the middle and not on a slant.
Back cover: continue the clippings and stripes from the front cover. Have either a silhouette of the band members or the two bodies. Maybe have a track listing with another Odd Shaped Head song as the B-side?

| Hitchcock's Vertigo poster, something similar to that but with a block black silhouette. |
Ideas for the other panels: Have a four panel split with the band taking up three and something else in the last one (the bodies or something?) done in a similarly tongue-in-cheek fashion.

| A page from the inside of the Oasis - Dig Out Your Soul digipak |

| The front cover of Blur - The Best Of. We didn't have Britpop in mind when we thought of the idea but maybe that's a look we could go for using filters. |
