The Powers That B Digipack - Death Grips


The album features a floor light with Death Grips scratched into which suits their image well as they are very aggressive musically. The back cover features a heavily distorted screenshot from one of the group's music videos as well as the album title and the legal information and also the label logos.
The images from inside are very minimalist, one just says 'Jenny Death' and the other says 'Ni**as On The Moon' and features an image of one of the group's members. 'Jenny Death' and 'Ni**as On The Moon' are the names of the disks that together make 'The Powers That B'.
The images on the far left and far right feature an image of the same thing, a 'real' leaf within a computer screen that has an editing software on the screen, but one of the images is from below the leaf and one is from above. This is very strange and unique which fits the band as these words are commonly used to describe them. The track listings are written over these images.
The disks feature distorted images which links to the heavy distortion featured in the music that Death Grips make.
The images below the disks feature blank snakes wrapped around red egg-like objects. This fits the dark and almost evil style of the music that they make. These images are also very cult-like which links to the 'cult' following that the band have.
