We also where strictly white and black clothes (even shoes and socks), as we have stuck with the monochrome theme of the logo. I also wear a white guitar strap with black guitar. The monochrome colour scheme puts emphasis on the music that we perform as it does not distract the audience too much with visuals, so that they can focus on the music. I have also noticed that we stand out from other bands that we play with, as no one else wears white predominantly- black is most commonly used as the predominant colour. ]]> 2023-05-21 15:17:43 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2598872863 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2598880818 On stage we are high energy, loud and aggressive. On stage we try to match movement with the lyrics of our songs. People come to our shows knowing they will be getting an eccentric performance. Our aesthetic matches the vibe of our influences- Dead Kennedy's, Black Flag and Minor Threat. ]]> 2023-05-21 15:33:04 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2598880818 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2598882095 We have a rough and ready approach. Our logo is roughly drawn and we use black and white colours to define the band. We use these colours because the bold font of our logo stands out more with the minimalistic approach of black and white. It also contrasts with the music we make which is much busier and aggressive than the simple monochrome colours we use for the logo.]]> 2023-05-21 15:35:45 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2598882095 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599009131 I would love to play at festivals in the summer, especially 2000 trees. Festivals are great exposure for bands and seem really fun to play because of the good vibes from the festival goers, especially if the sun's out too! They are also great networking events, and I hope to get SAK! involved with other bands after meeting them through festival events. ]]> 2023-05-21 19:38:49 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599009131 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599012093 Minimalistic. A place where blood, sweat and tears can be secreted and people can jump around like crazy. In fact, the rougher the venue the better!]]> 2023-05-21 19:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599012093 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599023723 We try and create a chaotic atmosphere through our music and performance. We are very much influenced by American Hardcore Punk from the 80s which is shown in our music. This mixed with our wacky personalities really sets the scene for SAK!. We value authenticity and our on stage persona is a more blown up versions of ourselves.]]> 2023-05-21 20:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599023723 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599029640 Most often we have colourful lighting as the lighting technician does not give us much leeway on stage. However, sometimes we get a spotlight on stage. This is good because it draws out the white of our SAK! shirts more and makes the black logo more visible, but also as we are a two piece it helps draw the audience's attention to Jack and I instead of the empty space, as quite often the stage is a lot roomier than our setup. ]]> 2023-05-21 20:21:42 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599029640 s4103743 https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599030628 I use a black guitar on stage as our main aesthetic is monochrome colours. The black guitar contrasts nicely with the white t-shirt I wear on stage.]]> 2023-05-21 20:23:57 UTC https://padlet.com/s4103743/e23o20m793wr1kx4/wish/2599030628
