Research Into Genre And Image.


In the band skip the foreplay they all seem to have their own ideas of style, like you have two of them that are mostly covered in tattoos and show them off frequently, whereas you have have the rest that dress mainly covered. However with the whole of the band they wear pretty out there and in your face clothing like bright colours. They all wear skinny jeans and baggy tops with rather ragged old looking shoes, this I would say fits in with the rock and roll theme as they don't really care too much about the quality of how they look more whether they're comfortable or not.


They have their own promotional things like tops and of course CD's. I think the top fits in with them well as its like dark and not only this but has the same art work on their t-shits as they do on their CD, this is good for promotion. Their art work fits in with the sexualised nature of their band name but also gives a kick of colour to not seem completely dark and dingy, I think this all still fits with the genre conventions as they do have the bold colour of black but keep it all relatively simple to more promote their songs than their image of perfection like other artists.

They keep their own individual style here as well, but all mesh together as they all have the same passion for the music that they play, for example in this image they're both rocking out whilst playing their music just like their audiences would do as well. They fit with the rock genre by their stance and image promoted with this rough tattooed and pierced appearance.
