Take a breather on the concrete…

HEY!  I just got a phone call that said please press “1” to hear a message about capitalism.  I found it very fitting because I’m starting a business endeavor in the next coming weeks.  Expect more information and something awesome by Labor Day.

Anyways, I’m currently designing a Tshirt for Billy Raygun, an incredibly awesome pop-punk band from Portsmouth, NH.  That’s Billy Raygun in case you aren’t listening.  Billy RaygunLISTEN.  Here are some sketches and drawings that I did in preparation.  I might use some of them that weren’t chosen for other things:

BRplanets

BRsnakefight

BRspaceman

BRsquidboy

I did a more finished version of the one that was chosen (the kid blowing up planets with his eyeballs) and here’s the sketch and a version with halftone shading and text that I really like and hope they pick:

HOPE YOU LIKE IT!

On an unrelated note, here are two really killer albums you should check out.  Buy them if you like them, or support the band some way.  The first is by Richmond’s Wasted Time.  It’s called Futility and it is rippingly fast.  If you are into stuff like Kill Your Idols, Out Cold, Slapshot, Negative FX, and just straightforward, fast, and hard hardcore then check this record out.  It’s put out by Grave Mistake Records, which should automatically tell you its awesome.

The next one I want you to listen to is by Dear Landlord.  They play melodic/poppy punk rock in the vein of Dillinger Four, Off With Their Heads, and all that reeeaaalllll good shit.  I think they share members with Off With Their Heads even.  Anyways, this album, Dream Homes, is really well written and fun.  There’s good singalong parts, good lyrics, and catchy hooks.  CHECK IT OUT.

Download.  Again, not my upload.

Seriously though, go buy these if you like them and can afford it.  THEY PROBABLY NEED THE MONEY TO CONTINUE PLAYING MUSIC.
