FAILURE - Regular 18”x24" Screen Print • Artist Edition of 35!!! • Signed & Numbered MORE INFO HERE http://bodega.brianewing.com/rock-posters/ or Link In Bio . @failurebandig poster at @promowestlive #NewportMusicHall With @swervedriverofficial . I got to FINALLY design a poster for a band that I've loved for years. Back in my Grunge days when I had many bad haircuts a goatee and wore lots of flannel. Ah to be young... Welp I got to relive some of that youth by doing this poster for #FAILURE! If you don't know - this band had a major influence on some of your favorite bands but never got the success that others did. They broke up for a bit and popped up producing many great albums for other bands or joined supergroups like #APerfectCircle and #autolux. . The brief from Tim Doyle and @nakatomi_inc was dark #sciencefiction. Perfick! I turned to FAILURE’s latest album #IntheFutureYourBodyWillBeTheFurthestThingFromYourMind . It’s like if #WilliamSBurroughs and #StanleyKubrick collaborated on an album while watching #Interstellar ! At least that’s what I got from it. . Further inspiration behind this piece came from the #GhostinTheShell animated movies. (Not the live action film that came out a few years back.) I really loved the first #GITS movie but the second movie (Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence) really affected me for many years. So much that I drew one of the #pleasurebots a long while back for a #QueensoftheStoneAge poster way back when. Next to #Akira and #NeonGenesisEvangelion, Ghost In The Shell has got to be one of the best animated movies made for adults. I'm a nerd... . BIG THANKS to Tim and Nakatomi Inc., for asking me to be a part of their curated poster series!!! I hope I get to do more! . There were no variants made for this poster. . ALL ORDERS HAVE SHIPPED! THANKS to everyone that placed orders! . I’ll be a guest artist at @sonictemplefestival May 17-19 with Sean Dietrich and Kai Martin!
