Now Blur's been turned into a Brick-pop band! Artist gives iconic album covers a Lego makeover




British artist Aaron Savage has unveiled his greatest bricks - legendary album covers made out of Lego.

The 21-year-old gave the yellow Lego men different haircuts, clothes and facial expressions to make them look like his idols for his musical project.



He then spent days arranging the figures and bricks to recreate his favourite LPs - including classics from Queen, David Bowie and Blur.

Aaron's instantly recognisable work includes albums from the 1950s to the present day.

They include Michael Jackson's laidback pose on the Thriller album, Saturday Night Fever by The Bee Gees and Parallel Lines by Blondie.

Born in the USA by Bruce Springsteen, One Step Beyond by Madness and It's Not Me, It's You by Lily Allen also feature.

He said he was inspired by his two hobbies to build the work: 'Album covers was an easy choice for me because it combined my two interests.

'I did some research to see what Lego was available and then picked covers that I knew could be recreated.'

Aaron spent weeks trawling through eBay to find the parts to bring his work to life.

Aaron Savage turned his attention to contemporary albums as well as the classics, and gave The Strokes' Is This It album a lego makeover

He said: 'I found a Lego banana on eBay, so I knew I could recreate the Velvet Underground cover and added that to the list.

'A lot of the covers are iconic but a few are from newer or less known genres.

'I wanted there to be at least one or two covers everyone could recognise.'



He added: 'I feel it captures the emotion and movement of the original image, which is hard when using a ridged medium like Lego.

'When I show my work to somebody for the first time and they can tell what it is, I know I have done a good job.'
