mood board



























All of the pictures that i have chosen are very good representations of of the metal music genre,they all show the stereotypical factors involved in metal of people having long hair,tattoos,and a very unique sense of fashion.The fashion sense that the people in the pictures are wearing is considered to them a form of personal expression and each individual person involved will have their unique sense of style for example some people will choose to rip their jeans, others may choose to cut the arms off their t shirts while ,other people may choose to dye their hair a different colourin the end it all mounts up to the same result of a personal expression from each individual person. The facial expressions and poses shown by the people in the pictures are very aggressive as this is normal in this style of music and a simple relaxed pose or expression will not go along side with the aggressive music being played and powerful lyrics.as you can see from the pictures the people singing they look very passionate about what they do which shows that compared to other music genres this is completely different in terms of the connection between person and music.
