Band Photography Inspirations

Here are some photo line ups of bands of similar style to my chosen one.
If I decide to use a photo of the band for my magazine cover and album cover these will help me in understanding the style used for band photography.

Fallout Boy

Sum 41

Billy Talent

From my research into band photography I have noticed that they often take a line-up of the band, or show all the band members having equals amounts of the photo each.
However in the Fallout Boy example they have added a comical intertextual effect with the Star Wars Light sabers, this shows them to be immature and also quite "geeky". The line-up of Sum41 is also comical but this time through the expressions of the band members - it would appear to me that bands can often be described in their photos as fun and childish, this also reflects their music style as Fallout Boy & Sum41 are not necessarily serious artists. On the other hand, Billy Talent have more serious and unhappy expressions as well as poses, this may be a reflection of their music and lyric style.
