Borrowed Time - Black Olympia
Artwork for the new Borrowed Time / Wytch Hazel split ep on High Roller records from Germany. Coming Soon. Borrowed Time's new track, Black Olympia, showcases some new progressive elements for the band. The influence of Manilla Road is evident, so much so that it influenced my artwork on a subconscious level I believe. Wytch Hazel is a new band from England that draws deep influence from that country's heavy metal roots. They have a very archaic and old sound that brings to mind Trespass, Paralex, Bleak House and even Wishbone Ash (!?) Here's a link to the superb High Roller label....http://www.hrrecords.de/
Update...Here's the finished product...Wytch Hazel cover and lyric inserts by Seth Bennett respectively.

Stay Creepy...
New "fan-art" celebrating one of my favorite painters of all time (Sanjulian) as well as one of my favorite publications of all time (Creepy)! The painting itself measure 30" x 40" on canvas and currently resides in the private collection of Mr. Pete Gibbs, glass artist extraordinaire. The "Creepy" mockup was done by "Slasher" Dave Monastiere. Thanks Dave, it looks killer and quite authentic if I must say. Keep an eye out for more collaborations between Dave and myself with our new horror aesthetics company, HORROR SHRIEK. Much thanks to the GODLY Manuel "Sanjulian" Clemente for eternal inspiration as well as for the many hours I have spent staring intently at his work with a childlike sense of wonder asking myself "how'd he do that?". A true unsung legend in the fantasy/horror art realm!

Coven 13
Artwork inspired by a really cool yet somewhat forgotten Detroit band, COVEN 13. Their 1987 Lp, "Worship New Gods" (released as just Coven, they would soon add the 13 to their name due to threats of being sued by the Indiana Coven of "Witchcraft: Destroys Minds And Reaps Souls" fame.) is an oft overlooked gem. The sound is hard to describe but depending on ones musical point of view I could see people classifying this as anything from heavy metal to traditional doom to deathrock. I can safely say it would appeal to fans of all genres. Considering how trendy goth and deathrock are becoming in the metal and punk scenes again, it's a shame that this band no longer exists. They could have ridden the wave to some success no doubt. As evidence of this, Shadow Kingdom records has recently re-issued "Worship New Gods" for the first time ever on CD! Get it here................. http://shadowkingdomrecords.com/index.php?action=news
Also, for more info on Coven 13 check out this excellent interview with the band conducted by the heavy metal freaks at The Corroseum, cheers to them for helping re-discover an obscure Detroit band for the world to hear.... http://www.thecorroseum.com/features/coven/index.html
