With their album Wall of Arms, The Maccabee's did something very rare with their digipak, they simply created a fold out poster, which was an enlarged image of the album cover. The reason behind why the band would have chsoen to do this will have been because, they know people do enjoy to get something extra, at no cost. This front cover and digipak, is 'Pop Art' esque image, something in which the band are renound for, and they also look as if they've had a plasticine tint to them.
Another reason why The Maccabee's may have chosen to have done this is because they know most people recieve their music online now, and maybe do not actually see the need to create a good, strong, defining digipak nowaday's.
Nonetheless, I amend The Maccabee's for trying to be slightly different and not creating a typical digipak. Although, this isn't something I would consider when creating a digipak, due to the fact I'd be accused of laziness, and having a narrow though process.
