Punk rock is a rock music genre that developed between 1974 and 1976 in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Rooted in garage rock and other forms of what is now known as protopunk music, punk rock bands eschewed the perceived excesses of mainstream 1970s rock.

A T-shirt (T shirt or tee) is a shirt which is pulled on over the head to cover most of a person's torso. A T-shirt is usually buttonless and collarless, with a round neck and short sleeves.
(T Shirt (album)) T Shirt is a 1976 album by Loudon Wainwright III. Unlike his earlier records, this (and the subsequent 'Final Exam') saw Wainwright adopt a full blown rock band (Slowtrain) - though there are acoustic songs on T-Shirt, including a talking blues.

This is a new pop-punk band coming out of Richmond, VA that was started by two ex-members of recently departed band, A Suffocating Signal. From listening to their demos and hanging in the studio, I can tell you it's definately fun music to listen to. For fans of NFG and Rise Against, this could be your next favorite band.
I did a few plain backdrop shots for their myspace layout. Chase (far right) does look super creepy in it, haha. I plan on later replacing another shot of him into the photo. I'm not sure they'll use this one or not, so that's why I decided to post it.
Anyway, it's a rather simple edit with some dodge and burning. The other photos will be edited the same way. We did a few shots in my living room as well.
