Also, in getting caught up with all things Mudhoney for this project, I checked out the I'm Now, the Story of Mudhoney documentary as well as a recent interview with frontman Mark Arm on Marc Maron's WTF Podcast. Both highly recommended in rediscovering the band's influence, history, and how their distorted sound developed along the way.

Melvins / Redd Kross Posters

Attempting to control chaos with this new poster for the Melvins and Redd Kross, who will be kicking off their “Escape From L.A.” U.S. tour with this show in my favorite venue in San Diego, The Casbah. This one took me on a journey with some twists and turns, but I’m extremely pleased with the end result. Remember, if you’re going to melt, always melt upwards!

Tusky details

An unearthly end to a primitive being

I worked my above broken femur into the art, floating atop the pooling acidic alien goo. This giant stupid bone played a heavy role in the struggle to get these completed and delivered on time. Much of this was created laying down, my busted leg in the air, whilst marinating in a stew of pain meds.

Details:

• 18"x24"

• Limited edition silkscreen print of 100, hand signed and numbered

• 5 color silkscreen gig poster

• Cougar Smooth Opaque 100lb natural cover archival paper

• Printed at Seizure Palace in Portland, OR.

• Posters ship numerically by order in a reusable 3Mil plastic sleeve within a sturdy round 3" mailing tube

* Limit 2 per customer

Available now in my shop...

Got to catch Ufomammut here at the Oakland Metro Operahouse a few nights ago

Thank you Urlo, Vita, and Poia of Ufomammut, Secret Serpents, and a huge thanks to Portland's Seizure Palace for coming through with such masterful printing in such a timely hustle!
