To the Faithful Departed is the third studio album by the Irish rock band The Cranberries, released on 30 April 1996. The album was made in memory of Denny Cordell who signed the band to Island Records[9] and Joe (vocalist Dolores O'Riordan's grandfather), who had both died that year.[citation needed]

Packaging[edit]
The album sleeve photo session was made up of two parts, the first being the original design for the front cover, a naked baby boy (supplied by their press officer Smash at Island Records) on his back urinating into the air which was shot in photographer Andy Earl's new studio on Shad Thames in London, and the band seated in a yellow room.
At the last minute, at Dolores O'Riordan's request, the two were swapped and the yellow room became the front cover.
The yellow room was designed to be an echo of the previous two album sleeves. It was built in London and transported to the Lake District and erected in a forest near Loughrigg Holme. Snow fell on the erection day and the band spent as little time as possible on the shoot clad, as they were, in new purple Dolce and Gabbana outfits.
A new logo and typeface were decided upon signifying the band's desire to move on from the strict repetition of the previous album sleeves. Incidental studio photos were included, taken by Cally in the band's studio in Vancouver, Canada. Cally added "I attended the surreal Brit Awards where Jarvis Cocker invaded Michael Jackson's stage and left soon after to drive through horizontal snow to get to the Lake District in readiness for the photo shoot the next day. On waking in the Ambleside Hotel I saw Jarvis on the front cover of every paper, being released from jail with Nigel, The Cranberries A&R man beside him. Things only became more surreal when we realised that later we were shooting the band bravely clad in thin purple suits under snowfall in a yellow room in a forest in the Lake District".
