I love making cyber/tech style custom logotypes. Cyber logos work quite well for technical death metal bands, but it turns out they apply quite well to other forms of music too. I got to make a logo for drum & bass DJ DB Cyanide this week and it turned out great....

The boys in Thot Purge dropped a new single today and I got to create the art, lyric video and even contribute a bass track. The butthurt over this track, entitled “BOOMERDEATH” is hilarious. Check out the art: I took the idea of boomers taking cruises and...

Pokémon is hands down the most brutal video game ever made. You go into the wilderness, enslave a monster, then FORCE IT TO FIGHT FOR YOUR PERSONAL GLORY. I’ve never actually played it, but at least I think that’s how it works. I wanted to do some death...
