The main theme of Good & Evil is the concept of duality, an opposition/contrast between two concepts. This is evident in the album title and cover artwork, which uses the duality of goodness, evilness, and black and white respectively. & is another example of this theme, with many of its lyrics showing duality (i.e. "Weak & strong & wet & dry & right & wrong & live & die"). | The main theme of Good & Evil is the concept of duality, an opposition/contrast between two concepts.

In 2017 (as part of a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Throwback_Thursday Throwback Thursday]) Joe would reveal a concept for the CD art of Good & Evil on his Instagram page.<ref>@joehawleyjoehawley001 [https://www.instagram.com/p/BRbaYOVDs2i/ #TBT] 9 March 2017. ''Instagram.''</ref> This concept would end up being very close to the final product, as the original 2011 pressing of the CD did not have any text on the disc at all. The Needlejuice version however, has copyright information on the disc. | |||
