Unlike The amity affliction, We came as Romans have focused their significance of album covers over them all, with their unique design on each, if you know the band it will become instantaneously recognizable for fans. In all of the album covers their is a lot going on artistically. They all feature trees. Which helps with the bands instantaneously recognizable design, They are all dramatic with a lot of detail, showing that their cover wasn't just slapped together in a matter of hours but are more planned out, it shows it means a lot to them. as this is their own image, the one they created for themselves and its defiantly not a boring one.
Looking at it more contextually;
Colour
The colour is the same for most a different shade of blue or purple two colours that are related to each other. The colour scheme really links with each other keeping feel of a 'brand image' for the band.
Lighting
As for the lighting they are all dark, being drawn and not taken they were able to do this in a better way being able to get the exact light they want without making it look to over produced and photo shopped. The lighting is dark to represent what the band stand for coming out of the darkness and into the light.
Camera Angles
As they are all drawn it is hard to talk about the camera angles yet I can review why they put certain objects in certain places. The human like figures are always central they all seem to be battling their demons with 'understanding what we have grown to be' it is two entities injecting their tongues into his ear, one representing good and one evil. This shows he is combating his evil demons with good. In tracing back roots it shows a man escaping the tree he is bound to. Escaping the roots hes set himself into and being free. All three albums give the impression of battling demons and winning this is a signature that they have given with each cover.
