Q's crack team of photographers outdid themselves in 2007, capturing the year's key bands in ever-more striking ways. Where else could you see The Gossip spilling out of trash cans like Oscar The Grouch? Or Snow Patrol's Gary Lightbody trussed up in a straight-jacket? Or US indie types The Shins decked out as Roman Centurions? Here, then, are our favourite images from the past year of Q. Enjoy.
