Why do rock musicians still dress like walking cliches? This looks was stale by the 1980s, but you still see white guys trying to pull it off all the time. Bad optics is probably part of the reason rock can’t seem to pull off a revival.

That doesn’t look like an 80s look to me

Leather jackets look like shit on 95% of guys, when will they realize this?

I think they're kinda hot

Choose any combination of:
>Leather jacket
>ripped jeans/black leather pants
>sunglasses
>band tee, open shirt, or deep V-neck
>bandana
>multiple bracelets on each arm
>multiple necklaces
>boots
>rings on multiple fingers

It was cool when Keith Richards and Jimmy Page first started doing it 55 years ago, but it gets more and more watered down with each passing generation.

They don't though.
Maybe you're thinking of metal, where everyone is trying to intimidate the cameraman. Or Europeans in general. Rock style has largely been colorful. Hippies... Glam.. most punks.. grunge and their lumberback flannels.

You have to have long hair or a skinhead with a long beard to rock out honestly

Somebody needs to tell Johnny Depp that its just not working anymore.

There are similarities but these guys actually look cool and aren’t wearing skinny jeans

Wait, maybe this is another pajeet thread. Or some other streetshitter. Who else would build all of their views on the most simplistic shit they find on the internet? Someone who didn't actually grow up here and has no experience with school, concerts, nothing.

pic not related. Was gonna say you could be a pencil necked dork and still rock. If you wanted.

Who cares if they find them comfortable? They are also quite durable.
Comfort > practicality > looks

I can't stop staring at this picture, it's that bad. The guy on the left comes the closest to pulling it off only because he's Mexican so rules are different. Second dude tugging on the jacket looks like a fed wearing a wire and the 5'5" guy in the white hat looks like a complete and utter fag. Last guy isn't that bad but you can tell he's devoid of any personality whatsoever

They are all larping as 60's and 70's rockstars. Izzy couldn't be more of a Keef larper if he was wearing a bandana
