David Arnoff’s photography explores the inner emotions of some of the most legendary musicians during the post-punk era. While his images have previously appeared in a variety of publications, including NME, Melody Maker and more, he is now looking for a publisher to make his photos into a book. Looking at his body of work, it’s amazing that he hasn’t been published in book form already. We’ll certainly order a few copies when the book does get released. In the meanwhile, here are a few of our favorite rock and roll portraits taken by Arnoff.
