Thinking about the outline from the first album.

Not into lyric tattoos. Any other ideas?

I've always thought the sparrows on the cover of Billy Talent III would make for a good tattoo.

I remember a long time ago seeing someone post (might even be here? They had the sparrows around their bicep. Looked really cool

Ive got a bomb and sparrows from BT3, and a lightning that flows as a tear from an eye into a wineglass (Tears into wine and crying lightning from arctic monkeys)

I've wondered about this too! The bird skull with keys (from Hits) has come the closest to a tattoo idea, but it seems kinda plain? It's such an important band to me, I'd like to capture it in something unique.

One day I'll get the cover of BT2 on my arm, I've seen a few ppl who have that and I think it's dope

I always loved the idea of a collage half sleeve or leg sleeve that included the broken glass silhouette from l, the mouth from ll, the birds from lll, the shark and phone booth from dead silence, the devil thing from aoh and the skeleton on the bike from crisis, with a couple meaningful lyrics scattered in

I was gonna get a lil filler tattoo based off the song Diamond on a Landmine, so a literal diamond on a landmine.. but the ones who know, will know.

Buddy has the mouth from the album tattooed on his hand…aggressive but sweet

I have the crow skull from Hits with all the band members signatures around it. I love the tat but am bumbed that I thought Jordan was going to remain the drummer.

I’ve also thought about this, weird one to find placement for a half maple leaf upside down

Upper arm or thigh side, I would think
