    I'm working on this poster for Death From Above. I'm not 100% on it. What do you guys think?

    The half-tone drops out of her torso and arms pretty harshly.

    Also, upside down crosses are like the new birds and DFA is not very black metal.

    and you should probably put the city and maybe the state on it as well. There's probably a lot of venues called "Metro"

    The placement of the triangle on her bum is perfect. I'd make the Metz bar stop right at her mouth... so raise all the type up a bit and see if you can maintain balance in the composition. People won't see that subtlety immediately, but it's there if they want to keep looking...

    Tangent with the pink rectangle and the horn. Not a big deal, but it irks me, a bit.
    I second the vote to axe the inverted cross. The eyes, or absence thereof, are evil enough.
