Default Favorite band press/promo photos?

You don't necessarily have to like their music, but I'm sure it helps.

Atoms for Peace

They're lying on the floor but the photo was taken upside down, making it look like they're on the ceiling.

Atoms for Peace have great pictures.

For press releases I generally prefer "simple" shots, basically an image that doesn't clash my
impression of the music and where the artists don't come across as dull or complete idiots (like a certain band since 2000.)


something like this

http://www.naitimp3.com/img/artist/_/156136.jpg

Soap&Skin is always using straight yet beautiful portraits

or just imagery that doesn't feature the band at all

I like the last one mainly cause it's ridiculous. Not sure why Topper and Simonon are baseball players but let's go with it I guess. They probably thought it was funny because what the fuck is baseball anyway.

he actually looks older in that 92 pic than in the 96 one. i guess it was the hard drugs keeping him thin and lean.

Baseball bats aren't just for playing baseball.

I really like that one of The Damned.
