Kashmir
A few weeks back I had thought of doing a post about my most recent favorite band Kashmir. The only real reason is that I have always fueled design with great music and wanted to share this epic Danish band. Fortunately, with their release of “Trespasser’s” there’s a lot more to blog about like the use of the new website at Kashmir.nu , a nine episode video diary on YouTube following the tour, and Twitpics added daily from fans.
Aside from the use of social media, I find the graphical approach to this CD release equally interesting. The simple graphic arrows, use of colour and fonts have created a graphic language the connects the tour. I’ve seen international posters, video, wild postings, and t-shirts all in various languages all held together by the simple graphic arrow. Even a band member’s mom gets into the scene holding up the album cover.
