“This is the same problem I have with digital photography. The potential is always remarkable. But the medium never settles. Each year there is a better camera to buy and new software to download. The user never has time to become comfortable with the tool. Consequently too much of the work is merely about the technology. The HDR and QTVR fads are good examples. Instead of focusing on the subject, users obsess over RAW conversion, Photoshop plug-ins, and on and on. For good work to develop the technology needs to become as stable and functional as a typewriter.” “Toy Fatigue”, Alec Soth (via tokyo-camera-style)

I just removed the last of my crap from a storage space I was renting and unearthed a thick file of promo photos that record companies and bands sent me back when I did an underground music fanzine (1988-91). I almost never printed these photos at the time because they seemed too generic. I liked amateur photos better. Over 20 years on, these are a bit more interesting to look at so I’m going to post a bunch. Some will be of more well known bands, like Sodom, but others are going to be a bit obscure. If you like metal or photos of dudes standing in front of brick walls, enjoy! If not, hang in there - I’ll shift over to something else before long. More promo photos from the late 1980s and early 1990s here.
