Bigmouth Strikes Again - The Smiths [Advert Analysis]


The above is a poster for The Smiths' single "Bigmouth Strikes Again". It advertises the single very well and although simple in design, tells the audience all they need to know to buy it. The image is very in-keeping with the rest of The Smiths album covers, posters etc., an old, what looks like, a stock image with a coloured tint over the whole image, and it is the same image as the single cover, this shows consistancy. The title of the track and the name of the artist are the focal points in terms of text. The release date is also shown, as is the formats the single is available on, 7" and 12" with bonus tracks on either, possibly encouraging people to buy both and hear the exclusive bonus tracks.
