Re: ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN Crocodiles (Super rare original 1980
UK vintage promotional poster for the band's debut
album, measuring 29" x 20". This full colour poster depicts one
of the fantastically brooding photographs of the group taken
byBrian Griffin with the band name in dramatic yellow lettering at
the top & 'The Album - Crocodiles' in basic font along the
bottom, an amazing, near impossible, find 38 years on. The
photographer, Griffin took a series of pictures of the Bunnymen
in the woods near Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire at night, in
order to reflect the imagery of darkness & sorrowfulness in their
music. On discussion of the album's artwork & the photo session
in general, critics at the time said "the Bunnymen are placed in
poses of histrionic despair in a near-neurotically gothic woodland
that evokes memories of elfin glades and fabled Arthurian
legends" [music journalist Chris Salewicz] & "The cover art
suggests four boys dazed & confused in a drugged dream, a
surreal where-are-we landscape. The Bunnymen's images are of
loneliness, disconnection, a world gone awry" [Creem
magazine]. Apparently, the band originally wanted burning
stakes in the picture, however, given the possible KKK
connotations, they settled for moody lighting instead! This 38
year old poster remains in wonderful condition, with no writing
or heavy tears. There are some small corner creases & light
faded pinch marks around the edges, & it remains ideal for
conservation framing. If you'll excuse the pun, this could be the
ultimate picture on YOUR wall!) View this product
