Van Halen Discography


This is a collage of the album cover of Van Halen’s discography. Some of them have images of the band members. This is not a display of singles of the band, which is different. Some of the covers show members of their band, each with their respective instruments and others with a more abstract art; the top middle 'Diver down' is just the most simple album cover. This possibly is a reference to the art work done on the guitar, with a similar colour scheme. The bottom right may raise concerns to the content with the image but its one of the better known albums of Van Halen discography. The colour ranges from bright to dark, wiht band shots having black and white along with a contrasting background to go with the picture.
Typically, they label bands especially other hard rock groups, as Deep Purple, AC/DC, and Aerosmith. Other older blues-rock artists, Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck influences can be heard through their songs, especially the technically demanding guitar solos. It seems that bands are influenced by other similar artists of the same genre.
