Album art from http://blog.albumartexchange.com/2009/06/close-encounters-with-third-eye-blind.html
My favorite band of all time is Third Eye Blind and as I was looking online for some band memorabilia, I found this album cover that was an idea for their most recent album, Ursa Major. I noticed that in the background there is historical typeface, "We therefore, the Representatives of the United States of America...," which is of course, The Declaration of Independence. Even if someone were to not know who Third Eye Blind is, the distressed style to this historical typeface on the antiqued parchment-like surface and the fact that the font is in a sense, speaking the words from the time period it originated, conveys to the viewer that this band is not just another pop, hip-hop group.
