  also the leading is far too tight.

  society 47 - is too prominent for something that has virtually no role

  bit of a font orgy & as trendy as them lines are in the background. you havent made them work hard enough. they serve no purpose - they dont have anything to do with 'new' or even interact with text.
  it looks like you panicked and used some 'filler' to add more cowbell to your poster.

  the text looks like its straight out of an 'engrish' dictionary and you could write it a bit better. + who the fuck doesnt know what NEW means..

  if you want to 'own' that word - you need to give it a meaning that relates to you. - not just.. 'oh.. well it comes later - cause we do too'
  ie. new = something you have not seen before. new = outward looking. etc

  it basically feels like you are taking a shit loada references from a shit loada places in a complete vacuum. totally devoid of context.

  try to figure out why each of these elements belongs on your page and make them deserve a place there.

  otherwise you might as well put a dick on the bottom right corner
