Description
I kind of hate this now, but a while ago Convy asked if I wouldn't mind making a pic of them and I said OF COURSE NOT and proceeded to do one right away. Despite the amount of effort I put into this, I no longer care for it AT ALL.Regardless, I still love Ludo and I want my Ludo love to expand all horizons.
[pssst, Tim Convy is the one in the white jacket with the dark hair, not the lead singer X)]
I think it's obvious that I adore Ludo in every way imaginable. There is really such a style in the way the lyrics are written, how the whole thing is presented and how the guys hold themselves that I adore and has definitely influenced my art a lot (in more ways than one). I love the way Volpe writes, his turn of phrase is sometimes so tragically comical, and every song is a story and his voice quality changes with each one (to me it does). In Air Conditioned Love he sounds so haunted and tired and older, while in Scream Scream Scream he sounds like an innocent best friend.
He always said that they believe in entertainment that's 'fun but doesn't make you stupider'. I really like that.
Ludo (c) themselves.
Andrew Volpe (guy in glasses), Tim Ferrell (guy in cap), Tim Convy (guy in white shirt), and Matt Palermo (guy with the match), respectively!!
O snap.

You hate it? I really still like it! I love the motion Convy's pose especially as well as his white coat... stylin! ^,^
And, yes... Ludo rules ^_^ And I have to you to owe the pleasure of being introduced to them! Thanks!
And you pointed out one of my fave things as well... the various tones of Volpe's voice. He's got quite some talent and range @_@

I decided to check out Ludo because of your fanart, and they're an amazing band. Thank you, I never would've heard of them!
Broken Bride is the only album I've ever hear of/heard that told a story; they're usually just a collection of vaguely related songs.
I also love You're Awful, I Love You because of the music video-it looks like they had a ridiculous amount of fun making it XD

Ah, Andrew Volpe. One of my favourite bespectacled lunaticsβthe other one being Hanna, of course. Ludo is fantabulous, and I think your art alone may be increasing their fan base exponentially.

I had never heard of Ludo, and I still haven't heard them but I just checked out the lyrics for "love me dead" and if that's any indication, then wow.
Also,I'm not sure what's not to love about this piece... it's tonnes of fun!

I recently decided to explore the magic that is Ludo, and let me just say that I'm sad that I waited so long!! They are amazing!! Broken Bride leaves me speechless... and You're Awful, I Love You, is hilariously awesome!! So thanks for spreading your love for them!!

You got me hooked on them. I love their stories. Especially "Laundry Girl" "Love Me Dead" and "Lake Pontchartrain"
They're fun to watch perform because they're totally insane. They kind of remind me a bit of Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog crossed with Bowling for Soup. XD

I really do have to thank you and Hanna Is Not a Boy's Name for introducing me to this awesome-tastic group of frabjous fellows. They and their music are now ingraved into my heart. They really need more love.
And really, this picture is just fantastic. I love the gradients and the expressions and everything and especially the WAY THE FREAKING MATCH LOOKS LIKE IT'S ACTUALLY GLOWING!!!

I always wondered whether 'Ludo' had anything to do with the awesome Bowie-crotch fest that is Labyrinth, and I'm guessing now that it does! Awesome movie.
And what a great poster!

Yes! Love for Ludo! I love it when a hometown band gets recognized for the awesomeness they hold. Got to see them this summer for Point Fest and nothing beats seeing a band in their hometown (or nearest city in Ludo's case).

Lake Pontchartrain is prolly one of my favorite songs out there. Great influence piece. I love the negative space effect the white jacket puts off
