Today Pitchfork featured a stream of the song Rachael by the group Neon Neon. Neon Neon is a collaboration between Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals and Boom Bip. The song is fun, but the band photo accompanying the stream is what caught my attention. Definitely a tip of the hat to Philip-Lorca diCorcia's classic photo, Eddie Anderson, 21 Years Old, Houston, TX.Update: Of course, when I say "best band photo ever" I really mean second best. Here is the best band photo ever.
UPDATE: I just received a very lovely note from the photographer who took the fabulous photo of Neon Neon. Her name is Piper Ferguson, she lives in Los Angeles and she wears many hats. In addition to being a great photography and a fan of diCorcia, she is also an accomplished director who is currently work on a documentary about the rise of the indie music scene.
