I recently did a project for local band Weird Year (for their latest album Nick Hates The Beach). It ended up something like a tour journal following a band on a strange roadtrip along the California coast, dodging the surreal and the fantastic all the way to a gig.
This was such a fun project for me. I love doing art for music and making up a little narrative of an indie band roadtrip was just... so damn fun.
If you care to listen to the album its on Sp0tif¥ and AppIe Music. Or have a look at their music videos on youtube. ✌️
Have you seen Käärijä's performance in Eurovision? I swear when I saw him he felt like your art style come to life... I was like "he was made to be drawn by notmusa"
lmao im flattered but im p sure that man was actually manifested into reality by @psshaw
Well, you have my permission to draw him.
Käärijä girlies, if you’re digging back through his discography and thinking— “hey, I like funny, self-effacing European rap! And I love spending hours on lyricstranslate dot com! But most of all, I need to look at a new picture of a dork in a silly costume every minute, or I’ll die!”
I urge you to bookmark Alligatoah. Good entry points would be “Lass Liegen” (which is about overconsumption), “Hab ich recht” (Käärijä-like yelling from the perspective of a slacktivist) and “Hass” (actually his whole Wacken 2020 performance when he metals it up).
Alligatoah is more established (people ask HIM to do Eurovision) so he’s got a more German, restrained funnyguy energy. But trust me, some of you are gonna love him. I do!
Revolutionaries wait for my head on a silver plate
Disease of drawing Käärijä overtook me again but this time I had do to my funny patented “government assigned fursona” drawing that’s my brain requires if I am to draw real life person more than once. please clap
