Smashing Pumpkins-inspired '1979' Art Print

Smashing Pumpkins-inspired '1979' Art PrintI'd been stuck on '1979' for a long time, since it's one of my favourite Smashing Pumpkins songs, a feeling apparently shared by millions of other people. And the music video imagery was never far from my mind, it's just such a successful synaesthetic evocation of the song.

I'd been stuck on '1979' for a long time, since it's one of my favourite Smashing Pumpkins songs, a feeling apparently shared by millions of other people. And the music video imagery was never far from my mind, it's just such a successful synaesthetic evocation of the song. When I eventually buckled down to concentrate on it, I looked for something that would cover the teenage experience of yesteryear (since that's the narrative that pulp covers offer, and also what the song is about). The more I considered this one, the more I liked it: by using a diptych panel, it covers the positive (flirting with the cute guy/girl, and all of the future promise that teases) and the negative (busted by the cops, and the threat of a ruined future that threatens). I also liked how the cop side could be supported by 'Shakedown', the first word of the song -- although almost any lyric from the song could be slotted in here perfectly.

So, if you're reading this far, you're either a fan, or shopping for one, and hoping for something with infinite cred that will cover you in shopping glory. Perhaps you've been plumbing the depths of the long tail of the internet, hoping for something to pop up and announce itself as the solution to all your worries.

Look no further.

I have everything you might need for the music fan in you, or in your life, to bask in glorious uniqueness. Using the power of intertextuality magnified by narrative congruence, you can choose between 5 increasingly large sizes of framed-and-ready-to-hang poster art prints, the same 5 sizes of equally ready-to-hang stretched canvas, the same 5 sizes of simple posters if you prefer to do your own framing, and even a customized speaker cover for the IKEA Sonos Symfonisk speaker (which you'll have to get independently, of course).
