Article

Comus (band)
Portion used

Album cover- outsides only.
Low resolution?

Yes
Purpose of use

(a) To illustrate the article as below (b) To illustrate the band as below
Replaceable?

Not replaceable as no free versions of the album cover exist and images of the band are extremely rare; band has long-since split so image cannot be reconstructed.
Other information The album deals with pathological themes of alienation as described in the article text; the cover depicts those themes and is therefore an invaluable aid to interpretation. This album is very much of its time and is stylistically unique in all of recorded music. It is therefore also important for readers to have referential information covering the artists involved.
