RIP Frank Kozrik

Receiving widespread acclaim in the 90s, his tireless work forever shaped the face of underground music’s visual aesthetic.

His most notable work included Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Melvins, The Offspring, Butthole Surfers, and Helmet.

His label Man's Ruin Records was pivotal in shaping the 90s underground scene, releasing albums from The Hellacopters, Nebula, Kyuss, High on Fire, Entombed, Turbonegro, 13eaver, Queens of the Stone Age, The Sex Pistols, Acid King, Goatsnake Fu Manchu and many more.

On a non musical front he was also a notable figure in the designer toy world, creating Smorkin’ Labbit and founding Kidrobot.

He will be sorely missed but his amazing legacy will live on in his work and in his reputation as a passionate and driven individual with an amazing amount of talent.
