Originally I had planned for the whole run to be printed like the green version shown above. That red next to the green really messes with your eyes, which is exactly what I was going for. I was printing late at night and the lighting was not the greatest, and after a couple of pulls they just were not looking right to me. Like a big jerk I decided to switch the run to black ink, which was stupid. Upon inspecting the posters in better lighting I quickly realized the green copies were exactly right. Don’t get me wrong, the black version turned out really good, but it isn’t as trippy. Anyway, there are 4 green copies, and Earthless got 3 of them. I guess that makes them extremely limited, right? Always, always, always, always, always, always, GO WITH YOUR GUT.

Black copies will be for sale at the merch booth at the show, and if there is any left they will be available in my etsy store Saturday.
**EDIT** Poster now available in the store.

Oh man, Basil Wolverton could really draw, and I have always admired his oddball perspective. Fans of MAD Magazine will recognize his work. This poster for the Detroit Cobras was definitely influenced by his drawing style, especially in the hair. And that color blend I printed there is metallic silver to metallic gold/bronze, so it looks great when the light hits it right.

Toronto, Ontario’s Fucked Up are the shit. Super aggressive, smart and their approach to a genre that has been rehashed and reused to oblivion is, well, refreshing. You can’t say that about just any punk/hardcore band. I fucking like music that makes me want to punch the air, and this is that kind of music.

I made a one color screen print for the upcoming show at the Casbah. When it comes to punk imagery it doesn’t get any better than Raymond Pettibon’s stark black and white illustrations for his brother’s band, Black Flag, so I adopted that general approach for this poster.

It should be noted that the opening act is not “Mika Miko and the Dabbers,” but “Mika Miko (the awesome noise-punk band from LA)” and “The Dabbers.” That’s two separate bands. The poster reads kind of unclear. Sorry guys.
