Debacle Records had their annual Debacle fest this past August. They were kind enough to commission me to create the branding for the whole thing as well as a redesign of their logo.
I really wanted to create something that would not be geared to one particular genre of music and display the diversity of the label.

2011-10-15T14:27:00.000-07:00

that time has rolled around again, Wolves In The Throne Room recently completed their US tour; in support of their newest record Celestial Lineage; and are currently starting the European leg of it. Below is the tour poster design we worked out for both tours. The band should have a handful of these left, as well as prints from the tour poster series I helped curate and printed.

Long Distance calling recently commissioned me to design a poster and 2 shirt design for their upcoming tour...

112 Printworks shows David D'Andrea: Aug 5, 6–10pm Plus a performance by Tiny Vipers!
Illustrator David D’Andrea’s work is iconic, dark, intricate, and beautiful. His illustrations seethe with sinuous, accomplished line work and intentional rough edges. He draws from a variety of themes – the shelves of his small studio are crammed with dusty books: almanacs, type specimens, crumbling encyclopedias, and other esoteric visual references, all looking as if they had been rescued from a medieval basement. The eclectic influences show in the work: archaic lettering, obsessively detailed renderings of animals, and elements from numerous religions and cultures.
Join us August 5 from 6 - 9 pm. We'll be showing a retrospective of D'Andrea's work, plus a brand new 11-color exclusive print only for sale at 112 Printworks! Tiny Vipers plays at 9 pm, adult refreshments served all evening.

2011-07-24T13:49:00.000-07:00

Been a little behind on doing updates on here. On top of the normal design/print work I'm usually consumed with I recently moved my shop and opened a retail store in the Fremont neighborhood with Rick G/Seattle Show Posters. We had our grand opening a few weeks back.

(Photos by Portable Victoria) you can view more shots from the opening here.

Thanks to everyone that came out!
We will be stocking posters, art prints, t-shirts and tons of other handmade goods. As well as a rotating artist gallery that will feature a new artist every month and an exclusive art print from each artist.
Our next opening is June 17th, featuring the art of Steve Roumas along with an on-site letterpress demo with Kyle Durie and her Moveable Type traveling letterpress van. As always there will be beer, live music and more that night.

To celebrate our move to our new neighborhood I will be printing some of these 'center of the universe' prints I designed this week.

2011-04-18T23:32:00.000-07:00

I realized I spend 90% of my time printing work for other people and I never post any of it here, nor do I poster a lot of the final printed pieces I design. So, I thought I'd post a bunch of the work I've printed lately. Things have been super busy and seem to be showing no sign of slowing down. I'm always available for custom printing. Feel free to email me for pricing...

Upcoming Shining Ones actions.

This will also be our last show with Demian on vocals.
From theStranger.com:
Shining Ones, This Blinding Light, Fawn, A Story of Rats

(Rendezvous) It's reassuring in our frantic age—where accolades are bestowed upon musicians for playing faster, cramming in more notes, and schizophrenically fusing ideas into some half-baked hodgepodge—that the deliberate, almost reactionary approach of doom metal is growing in popularity. Well, popular is a relative term. It's doubtful the masses will ever appreciate the prolonged moribund disintegrations of Seattle's doom-mongers Shining Ones. The group's sound—sustained discordant guitar chords deteriorating into amp-rattling feedback, drums pounding with more emphasis on violence than meter, and tortured, utterly miserable vocals—is destined to appeal to a limited audience. But for the handful of masochistic souls who derive pleasure from this kind of barbarism, it's a welcome respite, a meditative purging, and a therapeutic bludgeoning. BRIAN COOK

Lots of stuff going on lately (far too much sometimes). First off, I am handing over all mailorder duties to the able hands of my girlfriend Danie. So all orders should be caught up quickly and there shouldn't be any extended lags in recieving orders. My apologies to anyone who has been waiting your orders should be arriving soon.
With that I'm currently catching up on posting new items on the webstore. Both Broken Press t-shirts are now available along with a recent Crocodiles poster and an art print I designed, Lesbian/Kinski poster illustrated and designed by Justin Klein and Kevin Yuen's Sunn 0))) poster.

Thank you to everyone who has been ordering from me lately. I finally had a chance to get caught up on shipping so if you haven't recieved your order yet you should be seeing it in the next couple days. In addition to cranking out the last few posters in the Wolves In The Throne Room series I just finished working on a collaborative poster design with Stephen Kasner for Sweden's great Graveyard. I'm really happy with how it turned out.

All the remaining WITTR posters, Tom Neely's Isis poster and some other new prints will all be put up on the webstore within the coming week.

2009-07-06T11:16:00.000-07:00

more soon...

2009-04-16T18:00:00.001-07:00

Tons of stuff happening right now. I just received my copies of the Wolves In The Throne Room European tour poster I designed for their tour last January-February. I only have a very limited amount of copies. You can buy them here

the Shining Ones "Motions in Light" live Cd-r is now available through Dead Accents. They are handscreened and limited to 100 copies. It contains a live set from the Rendezvous Jewel Box Theater.

Some of my work is also being featured in a group show of Seattle poster artists at Society Co. in Ballard. The show opens April 30th at 8pm. There will be a blog up soon with information about the opening and corresponding zine curated by C.M. Ruiz.

Lastly, I'm organizing two different poster series for ISIS and Wolves In The Throne Room for their respective upcoming U.S. tours. I will post the full listing of artists and cities once everything is finalized. I'm really excited about both series, there are some really great artists involved. Thank you to everyone who has helped me so far in pulling these together.

As of Wednesday morning my cat Rigby has had a bloodclot blocking bloodflow to his hind legs, thus paralyzing the rear half of his body. Danie and I have been up since then bringing him to the vet everyday, syringe feeding him food and administering medicine every couple hours. But this is all becoming very costly. To help offset things even a little bit I've decided to put almost everything in my webstore on sale. Most all show posters are down to $10. If he makes it through the next couple days he stands a strong chance of living a full healthy life. Don't be surprised to find extra posters and test prints in most orders....Thanks!

Below are some previews of a few upcoming Dead Accents releases. I will be handling the art direction for these and a bunch more releases in the coming year.
Dead Accents is run by Demian of Hemingway, he has been quietly putting out (very) limited edition cd-r's and cassettes for the past year or so, everything thus far has had exceptional handmade packaging. I'm going to be working with him to step things up a bit and start doing larger edition sizes and hopefully a lot more releases.

DA 010 Sparkle Girl/ Hemingway split CD

DA 013 Wooden Teeth/Demian Johnston cdr ltd 150 copies

Triumph Of Lethargy Skinned Alive To Death / Hemingway split Cassette
*This will be a Broken Press release. This was supposed to come out forever ago but we've finally managed to get everything together and it should hopefully be out very soon.

One of Seattle's local newspaper's, The Stranger has been kind enough to select my Kinski poster as poster of the week. Thanks!

from thestranger.com:

Poster of the Week

Andrew Crawshaw strays a bit from his trademark distressed- calligraphy/death-metal look in this mesmerizing poster for Kinski. It sort of reminds me of the downtown library. Which I like.

So thanks to Seattle's inability to handle snow without freaking out my new band's (Shining Ones) first show was cancelled. Which is not the greatest start for a project. So our would be second show (which will now be our first show) should hopefully occur Saturday January 10th @ the Rendezvous, pending no natural disaster's or extreme weather decide to take over Seattle that day too. This will be a one off show for Salt Lake City's mighty Eagle Twin. We also got asked to play an awesome show at the end of January that we're pretty excited about...

2008-12-15T14:56:00.000-08:00

I've been working at a new musical endeavor with Dan from Lesbian. We're going to be playing our first show this Thursday at the Rendezvous in Seattle along with Hemingway, This Blinding Light(feat. mem. of Hypatia Lake) and Sparkle Girl. It should be an awesome show.

2008-06-25T00:19:00.000-07:00

So much stuff going on around here lately. Below are just a few of some recent projects I've just finished. The Jesse Sykes and the Sweet Hereafter poster is for two shows this coming weekend in Seattle. Limited to 130 copies, these will be available at the shows and online afterwards.
Also below are some limited edition (120 copies + overrun) live Asva cd's that I've designed and printed that will be available on their upcoming European tour . This is a live set from London in 2005 which was recorded and later mastered by recording engineer extraordinaire Randall Dunn. These will probably go fast. This is the first in an ongoing series of live cd's being put together by Randall and myself.
Currently finishing up posters for Boris/Torche, Harvey Milk and a Master Musicians of Bukkake tour poster along with a never ending list of other projects.

2008-05-19T10:17:00.000-07:00

Part of the art for an upcoming project for Hrak Ryam Hral (the new band from Nick Phit of Graves at Sea). I'm really excited to be working on this. Look for a U.S. from them in the fall. I'll post more from this project as it comes together.

2008-05-18T17:52:00.000-07:00

One of the designs I recently made for Important Records is now available!
The Thrones posters have been printed and are currently in transit to Seldon to sign/number. They will be for sale at the show and through Seldon and myself. I'm very pleased with how they turned out.
The KTL U.S. and Canada tour started 2 days ago anyone that lives in Chicago, Philadephia and New York should check out the last few shows. The band will have copies of both the tour poster and t-shirt design by myself and Demian Johnston. I will be printing a small second edition of the poster which will only be available through here.

2008-05-12T11:30:00.000-07:00

Some more shirts I finished in the last week or so. The Russian Circles shirt will be a v-neck. I'm also currently working on screening a Thrones poster for Seldon Hunt. These will be done sometime this week and available at the show.
