StillNo1
''StillNo1'' is the seventh album by German indie rock band Slut. It was released on January 25, 2008. Production The band recorded the album in Berlin in 2007. It was their first "real" studio album after recording and releasing a number of songs from Bertolt Brecht's and Kurt Weill's ''The Threepenny Opera'' in 2006. The band described recording those songs as essential for the existence of ''StillNo1'' as they incorporated many things they learned during their time performing at theaters. Cover art The cover of the album is a version of a painting by Berlin artist Sigurd Wendland. The band planned to find a cover art by visiting art galleries in Berlin Mitte while recording the album but found nothing there that they liked. They discovered Wendland's art by browsing through an arts catalogue afterwards and decided that Wendland's art fits their music style. Wendland was supportive of the band and even asked them whether they would play at his vernissage at Lisbon. Lead singer ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

A lookbook is a collection of photographs compiled to show off a model, photographer, style, stylist, or clothing line. Usually, bloggers or vloggers will "model" fashionable looks for that month or season. This gives viewers ideas on how to style outfits, or to show what the latest fashions are. It is an especially popular term among " fashion bloggers". Lookbooks in their online form can be described as "fashion diaries" because bloggers are constantly updating them on a daily or weekly basis.
