This Town Needs Guns

EARTHLINGS,

You may or may not know that we will be releasing a 7” containing two songs. We have continued writing for our forthcoming album, but two tracks are complete with vocals from one Stuart Smith, which we are planning to release this Summer. We will be recording these in July and are looking to prepare the artwork soon.

We are now looking to our wonderful fans to help us complete this release by us holding a photography competition. So what we are wanting is for you to send us a photograph (one entry per person) and we will choose our favourite image to be the sleeve artwork for the upcoming vinyl, which will be released through the awesome SARGENT HOUSE.

The main requirements are that the photo needs to be TAKEN BY YOU and to be high enough resolution to print. We have a design chap (Jamie (me)) who can help you with any issues you might have and can prepare the photo for the artwork/layout if you don’t know how.

• The photo will be at least 2272 x 1704 pixels (4mp) But the higher the better.
• CMYK (but that is easy to do!)
• 300dpi (as above!)
• NO photoshopping/design elements allowed
• NO pornography or disturbing images and nothing abusive or insulting to any race, sex or religion.
• NO cruelty towards any animal/living organism.
• NO using other people’s images or stealing. Thieves are lame as f*ck.
• One entry per person
• If a human appears in the image, you need to have their explicit permission for the image to be used. (this means a signature from them for permission to print the photo.)
• NO images of strangers/crowds of people.

The subject is entirely up to you.

The winning photo will be chosen by us, we will not tolerate bribery and are by no means swayed by ‘interesting’ offers. The winner will receive a signed copy of the vinyl and any other merch we have which is likely to be a t-shirt and a tab book. Also you will be credited on the sleeve and you will be generally awesome in the eyes of Thor, and us.

Good luck and we look forward to seeing the entries. :)

Email: thistownneedsguns.uk (at) gmail.com with your entry attached. Title your email thusly: Photography Competition.

Closing date: Thursday 30th June.

Blizzaow!
