Part 2 of band poster is here, click here for a look back on part 1

This Lomita really benefits from being two colour. In the background old newspaper clippings add depth, and in the fore ground stylish hand written typography dominates, grabbing your attention.

Band of Horses are an Interesting band with a interesting vocal style, The poster is advertising a show in Dallas and seems to have a Western feel to it, what looks like the corner of a dollar bill points to the text which has an image of the Texas wilderness in it.

An extremely linear and uniform poster for the band TOY, with a clear hierarchy of type sizes, I like this but think it could of be even better if it had been done in a screen printing style.

Angular illustration is used to create a stylish end result for this Radiohead poster. The type appears to be an extension of the main illustration, and the whole piece fits together very well, in part due to the extended hands drawing the viewers eye all over the poster.

I like this Death Cab for Cutie poster because of the contrasting image, a teddy bear holding a knife, and what is he going to do with it?

Some posters are far too busy. This Cold War Kids poster isn’t one of them. It makes excellent use of white space, and really draws the viewer’s eye to the band name and illustration.

Bold strips of colour on this The Dirty Sound poster push the retro illustration of the balloon towards you, to create a sense of perspective. Having the text on an angle also creates movement.
