rockologist :

this is the only diane arbus poto i can ever remember. i've seen a lot more, i know, but this one sticks out. so overused, though. like thast joel- peter witkin photo 'the kiss' for goth bands...

art chantry :

this is an extremely famous photo by diane arbus. if any of you are not familiar with her work, you should try and find a book about her immediately - it'll totally wig you out.
she killed herself about twenty years ago - slashed wrists in a bathtub routine. the good part is that she set a camera with a timer and photographed it. a friend of mine was the daughter of the friend who found the body. she took the film out and destroyed it.
all for art.

Mr Frumpy :

Oh yeah...Sticky Filth...hahahaha New Plymoths Finest!!! Youre flashing back to The Mushroom Ball's huh??? I remeber some of HLAHs earliest posters were pretty awesome, I think Gerald used to do em all... he managed both Hole n Shihad. I remeber standing at a train station in Paraparaumu, trying to figure out if I could steal the poster that was stuck on the wall across the tracks, and NOT get hit by a train... Freaked out Doll poster, for a Shahad gig.

Mr Frumpy :

I think Head Like A Hole briefly also used this for a tour poster in NZ about 10 years ago... either them or Shihad... cant remember all a blur. Must post up a classic tour poster they used in NZ... hehehe will hunt for it.

Speed :

Yeah I can't remember, but I've seen it on both 7"s and fliers. But you gotta admit, if any picture was ever worth a million posters, this might be it!!

EMEK :

p.s. i just checked out their website, and this band seems to know what they are talking about, and this image fits that perfectly... my bad.

EMEK :

right i remember seeing them after a show and they told me they were being sued... i guess it was just a cease and dissist, and they had to destroy and reprint new artwork.. long live punkrok

uncle charlie :

Thats SNFU emek, not SNAFU..And no they were not sued bigtime.

Nolen Strals :

yeah I've seen this photo a couple different places... I know of a hardcore band that used it on their 7" cover back in like 96 or 97 (just incase this gets read by anyone who could cause trouble I'll just say I can't remember their name. Such a great picture for punk /hardcore.

EMEK :

Nice use of a famous photograph. Haven't 2 bands already been sued bigtime for the use of this photo? i know SNAFU was one of 'em back in the mid 80's...
