Sex Pistols Influence

As we have now got a lot of research on the band i felt it would beneficial for our project if we looked into a few Sex Pistols images a little further to see what inspiration we could take from them. They were
certainly one of the most controversial bands there has ever been and also probably one of the most influential. They burst onto the music scene in 1975 in London and completely changed the face of music in Britain. Their loud, aggressive, and anti-establishment stance inspired a whole host of new bands and established punk as a new rock music genre and culture in Britain.

There outrageous style, rebellious attitude and complete disregard of any authority captivated the youth of London, if we took inspiration from the sex pistols attitude we could take more risks step outside the box and create a unique and daring final piece.

The bright use of colour, rough sketchy text, collage effect photos and messy paint splodges create a very eye catching image everything about it just screams punk, we could think about adding some of these effects in on our final images.
There complete disrespect for the monarchy is very beneficial to our project as we are essentially defacing money for our final piece.
