Punk Rock Vampires, Destroy!

Just for kicks, a mock 7" single cover for Zombina And The Skeletones excellent 'Punk Rock Vampires Destroy!'... I miss these guys!

WAR OF WORDS - BADGER

Here's my entry for last week's word 'Badger'. Had the idea for a graphic symbol early on. The species has such a distinct look, the design came naturally. The application presented a few more problems, then the other day I received a copy of the new ORCHID CD 'HERETIC'. A clever design based on the old gatefold 12" singles (complete with replica 'vinyl look' disc). So, here is my design for the 'fictional' early 70's progressive rock band 'Badger'. This was to be their debut single, but in a bizarre twist of fate, the singer/guitarist Rodney Badgerbottom (from whom the band took their name) was run over on a country lane and killed.

Rumor has it that the master recordings for their debut album were recently uncovered in drummer Brian Rabidd's allotment and will be released through Rise Above early next year.

WAR OF WORDS - WARD

Could have been a tough one this week... But got the idea to sketch out Orange Goblin vocalist - Ben Ward early on... See what I did there? Tenuous?.... Me?.... I don't know what you mean!

WAR OF WORDS - CONVERSATION

Something a little different again for this week's word. I kept having a vision of a victorian seance when I pictured the word 'conversation'... So here's what came out. I'd love to say I did this through paranormal means (like suggestive writing or some such) but I did it in my lunch at work with a black biro (old school!).
