Cigarettes After Sex
Apocalypse (2015). Cover photo by Ryan Zoughlin. Cover design by Randy Miller
The visual identity of ambient pop band Cigarettes After Sex is composed of very few elements: carefully selected black and white photographs, and reversed ITC Mendoza in tightly spaced caps. This minimalist formula is applied consistently for all cover art and extends to merchandise products. The artwork for the self-titled debut album is even more reduced and does without a picture.
