X&Y by Coldplay, designed by Tappin Gofton, EMI, 2005.

At a time when invisible data streams of binary information fed straight to our desktops are doing away with the need for album covers, it’s odd to find a record sleeve as the subject of media comment and speculation.

Odder still that the album cover in question — Coldplay’s X&Y — should contain binary data as its central motif.

Prophetic or what?

The Coldplay sleeve has been designed by hot new graphics duo Tappin Gofton. They have good pedigrees: Mark Tappin was at Blue Source, Simon Gofton at Tom Hingston Studio, both important studios in the UK music design scene.

Until the appearance of their Coldplay sleeve, Tappin Gofton were best known for their 1960s-style “agit-prop” cover for The Chemical Brothers album Push the Button. Their work for Coldplay’s third album establishes them as a new force in contemporary music design.
