Poster Research - Nirvana

It is valuable to research into other grunge bands posters to help me to develop my own understanding, as well as taking some of these ideas and incorporating them into my own poster. This is a poster from Nirvana that was very one of the top 3 posters voted by fans. It was taken again from a grunge forum and this poster was from at the height of their popularity. I like the way the poster looks very simple, there is just the band members and the name of their band. The lead singer is wearing unusual glasses, which to me connotes the rebellion style I have seen in the grunge genre. I also like the way the band has been framed and then the picture has been edited to look older, something I have seen in other grunge music videos and album art. No instruments can be seen in the poster but I believe because Nirvana have such a huge fan base their audience know who plays what. Because our digi-pack is linked with our music video we may also be able to do this.
