Possible Band Outfits

The song we chose (Never mind by Silent Sundays) is a punk-rock song with quite a heavy sound. Having researched bands with a similar sound to our band and the different styles within rock today, I have found clothing that would suit our band and fit well in the music video.


I believe that the bands image should maintain its focus on that of an indie-punk group, incorporating popular fashion such as plaid shirts, skinny jeans and hoodies. However I do also believe that each member of the group should have an individual image so I have also incorporated band t-shirts due to the fact that it is important the band keeps a solid punk/rock identity. 

I believe black skinny jeans are very typical of rock bands and therefore should be an option to be considered, however as mention previously I do believe its important to variate between band members personal image. Another option for the bottom half of the outfit would be denim jeans as they are also worn by many rock bands. 

The use of band t-shirts would help with the audiences interpretation of the band in my opinion due to the fact that many bands wear the t-shirts of bands they support as well as bands with similar music to their own. This can help an audience to identify even quicker what genre of music the band is producing as well as the band's feel. We could use the t-shirts of bands such as Green Day, Blink 182, Paramore or 'The Academy Is...'.

I also looked at casual shirts as a possible clothing choice for band members mainly due to the fact that they are often used in a multitude of  genres and are becoming increasingly more popular with the arrival of the indie image.
