Analysis of existing Muse album covers

When creating our own album cover for Muse, I thought it would be best to analyse existing album covers of Muse' just to familiarise ourselves with the personality of the band. It became apparent that there was always one similarity. Muse themselves were never featured on the cover. By not following the normal conventions of a rock muisc album (and including the band on the cover) we deicded that it would be best not to either. However, by not following the traditional conventions we were following one, the ones that Muse had set themselves.
