The digipak for WU LYF's "Go Tell Fire to the Mountain" album is very typical of alternative/dream pop, by being very non typical compared to other styles of music. The front cover is a reference to the title of the album, a picture of a mountain with the bottom ripped to expose a fire. The album is also not presented in a typical CD jewel case, but rather a cardboard digipak, usually reserved for special editions of albums, eco-friendly editions, and sometimes, as in this case, self-released material.
The album uses a very simplistic but still artistic and meaningful design with its artwork, the front cover consists of one photo, which I have previously mentioned. The back cover is the same photo, with the band's name, the name of the album and what seems to be some sleeve notes; all in the same simple font. The disc design is a painting, it is unclear of the situation depicted but it seems to reference slightly their video for "Spitting Blood", again, an obscurity, the usual for the genre.
