Wall of Sound Presents: Tattoos of UNIFY Gathering 2020

Tattoos. They’re part of your image and expression, they symbolise memories, milestones and pure art. They are a piece of the puzzle of you, and synonymous with the music scene… and perhaps gangs, but we won’t go there.

Anyway! UNIFY Gathering, which brings together thousands of people for the sake of heavy music, boasts an impressive display of tattooed people. So much so, that we thought we’d make a photo gallery of some tats that caught our eye.

Huge thanks to everyone who agreed to be snapped after being approached out of the blue, and sometimes even ran at, by a small female. And to those who took their shirts off and hiked up their skirts a bit, you’re the best.
