Album Artwork research

All of these album artwork photos all belong to artists under the 'Indie' genre. Some of them are simple photos, for example: Foster the PeopleEP. It is just a photo of a bullseye, but with some lines being taken out of the photo. The Scouting for Girls album artwork is also very simple: The sun in the background of the image with two people using their hands to make a love heart.

The only creative ones that are on here are Neon Tree's: Habits, Foster The People: Torches, and Tokyo Police Club: Champ. These are the only ones that stand out for me, as they are different, and are not like the rest due to being drawings, or lots of instruments and various props.

Imagine Dragons, Bastille, The Fray, Vampire Weekend, and the Kooks all have the fact that they are vintage images which makes them all similar. This may be conventional of the genre 'Indie-pop': and I will heavily consider this while thinking about designs for my artwork.
