Bogus Slogan Poster #00089 - Inside View
Not all great photographers are mainstream. But to do the type of photography that Mr. Motts of Opacity.us does takes a wonderful sense of adventure. His favorite subject of choice are abandoned large scale buildings.
The passing of human activity is available in nearly every shot of the state hospitals, closed factories, forsaken boats. He visits no trespassing areas, but he, of all people, should be allowed visitation right for taking pictures.
Here the message board is long gone – leaving bare brick – splashed with
white paint. A small radiator heats the hallway. Very inefficient. Try
running an East coast hospital with inadequate heating. Try budgeting the cost of re-piping an entire state hospital made from concrete and cement. Better to let the building go unused.
Bogus Slogan earned its punk credentials by becoming another band. This parallel band released three singles before recognition became public sized. “Host Spittle” had put out 2 EPS, 2 more singles and 1 album by the time promoters began calling for gigs they knew they could sell. Bogus Slogan does not turn down revenue streams, so Host Spittle went into wardrobe.
The record industry were crazed when the tour combining Bogus Slogan and Host Spittle was announced. They claimed the two groups had nothing in common. Bogus Slogan was insane. The tour started in the Mid-West. Within 4 shows the secret was exposed. But the punk community did not reject the band. In fact, demand for more shows was the result. Host Spittle merged into Bogus Slogan.
Bogus Slogan has been rockin’ the world for over half a century. Springing from the Surf, Psychedelic, Garage of the Southern California 60s, the band has released over 3 dozen albums and toured America & the World extensively.
Bogus Slogan uses artists, Illustrators and graphic designers from all over the world. ZenithPointStudio is proud to present many of the posters famed studio has done on behalf of the band.
