This album cover 'Progess' by Take That , suggests the growth of the once young boy band to the 'manband'. It also represents all the earlier riftd between the band members, have been forgotten and they've moved on and made 'Progress.' The image used for the front cover on the album uses all the members of the band showing all their participation. In each album cover they are all shown in the image, how big or small they are always there. The image adapts the iconic ape to man image.
The album cover is very simple, it only consits of one main colour and then the simple colours used on each of the band members. The brand identity, can be seen through the faces of each band member as they are the main image on each of their album covers. The brand identity can be seen through the text, every album cover always uses the same font making it iconic and well known to their audiences.
It's worth considering how this reflects the band's audience (have they grown up with the band?) as well as how it compares with other, similar bands. How does it reflect the Take That "brand"? Was the image (or mood) reflected in the videos released at the same time?
