Winter Solstice flier gives the holiday a dark vibe

Warhawk brings the rawk

What we like about this flier is the remarkably badass-looking, ahem, warhawk. It’s also a picture of a hawk wearing a headdress with what we assume are hawk feathers. That’s like a human wearing a headdress made of human hair. The disembodied head is also screaming at a moon in…

Git Some fancy silk screens

Rock posters have a long and storied history with silk-screening. It has been a tradition in poster and flier design for as long as the promotion of rock concerts has existed. It’s this very fact that warms our hearts when we see local shows with silk-screened posters, and this week…

MTHDS gives us the us the myth of giant robots

We adore robots here, so when a flier has a giant robot featured prominently, it’s already got a leg up on the competition. Throw in a vacuum tube for a head and it’s impossible to resist. MTHDS, the subject of this week’s feature profile, gives us all of this on…
