the horrors

What would happen if you were in a band like that and, kinda, well, got fat? So your legs didn't fit into dead straight leg jeans? I mean, you hear about people leaving bands because of "artistic differences", but did anyone ever get kicked out of a band because his arse was too fat?
 
i've been giving this thread some thought and to be honest can only really think of DISCHARGE (up till 'hear nothing...' LP), PARLIAMENT FUNKADELIC, JOY DIVISION and JAPAN (although one could equally argue japan look like a right bunch of fanny-pads)

obviously the Sex Pistols would have been the hands down winners if it wasn't for steve Jones' shitty blowdried hair. If i'd been Maclaren i'd have insisted he got a skinhead crop which would have looked so fucking good along with the rest of the band.
 

yes. i always thought the stranglers looked brilliant in their cover shots.

really, really sleazy and disreputable.

something not many other 'punk bands' managed to pull off

(tho i spose their peers were more in the pub rock scene and Dr Feelgood always looked pretty cool in press shots. like a bunch of villains, or the management of an Old kent Road snooker club)
 
well we've had look good but sound shit and look shit but sound good so now we do looking good, sounding good. which is what you rly rly want from a band rly.

The horror of the white shoes/black jeans combo :eek:

Worse than double denim imo.

Currently loving the music and look of

The Ting Tings

I like the everyday-ness of what CSS wear and to me they look good.

hmmm... just a bit too much construct to the everyday-ness IMO you see, when i first saw them, i just thought; "ho hum, lower east side chic, have a stylist, bet a few of them were fashion students/designers"
 
can't beleive they havn't been posted already...

yes, must say i was a bit surprised myself, but , cool though they may have looked , again, i always saw just a bit too much self-consciousness in their posing. then again, who in a band escapes that i suppose? paul simenon always looked phenomenal though. and topper always had that very 70s ratty, hungry, untrustworthy look about him that all punks should have had.

(i take it you know the very funny stories about that belfast photo session? BTW :D )
