Bastille:
Style/Image:
This poster represents the genre of Bastille, which is Indie/Pop. I feel that the photo in the poster is supposed to look quite old with a vintage effect to it. The photo has been edited to bring out the yellows within the picture, therefore giving an aged, vintage look. The main signer of the band (Dan) isn't facing the camera and is running away from the camera. This represents the Indie/pop genre because he isn't worried about his image. The Indie/pop genre doesn't always have a really over the top star image, it is a lot more subtle. 


Mise en Scene:
The Mise en Scene used in this poster is simple, yet effective. Dan is wearing a stereotypical outfit of black jeans and a light coloured jacket and is running in the middle of a road. Possibly representing to the audience a rebellious side to the band, or relating to the name of the album, 'Bad Blood'.

Layout features:
The name of the band is the largest piece of font on the page, so it catches peoples attention very easily. I feel that Bastille use throughout most of their adverts or merchandise quite a bold font. Now it is recongisable as Bastille font because they are quite famous. 

Years and Years:
Style/image:
Years and Years released their first album called 'communion', to the right is their advert for their tour. Their style and genre of music is electronica, quite different to Bastille, but I really like their poster. Their poster is very different to Bastilles tour poster. It has a black background with neon colours acting as a border round the edge of the poster. The 'Y' is in the centre of the poster, it has quite a large thick outline filled with the graduated neon colours, therefore being the focal point to the poster. I think it does a really good job at catching the viewers attention. Their poster is quite different and quirky, therefore relating to the genre of music: electronica. 

Mise en Scene: 
I think that this poster is quite simple, but it does have some imagery in the bottom right hand corner. There are 4 boxes with facial features on, then on the other sides of the boxes there are various patterns. I think this really relates to the genre of their music because it is quite different.
