FULL BLEED: ONE MUST IMAGINE SISYPHUS HAPPY
So this is a 2018 wrap-up. Let's take a look, shall we? Work from a project that's still sort of in limbo. Probably spent too much time on it, but wow is it ever pretty. Based on a cartoon done up by a friend. Kind of a fresh, loose thing. Nice to do these from time to time and not freak out about detail levels. Staying on brand once again.

X If there's a single band that sounds like LA to me, it's X. Granted, this is an artifact of me being as old as I am, but really it's about the soul of the band. Combining punk speed and rockabilly flourishes, gritty lowlife lyrics and soaring vocals to deliver these tales of rejection
