First one - erm, no thanks! Font is pretty nasty... purple colour is washing through everything making it look odd. EP is different strength to Vimto? Guessing this is some kind of cover?

Second - nice image but again weak typography. Is it for a game or ??? Type should be big, bold, punchy and more dynamic to match the image.

Maybe a brief would help?

1st one is just messy and I dont understand what it's meant to be.
2nd I agree with Nick, good image but VERY week typography.

I think the first thing you need to do is lose the font as it really cheapens the design.

The other main thing that you need to address is the resolution of the purple design - it looks really low-res and the over-saturation doesn't help things.
