ACTIVE: 2005- Lana Del Rey? Yeah, you read that right. Not exactly heavy metal, right? Even so, I really love her music… and videos! And I got into her music through a rather unusual path. You see, I’ve been hooked on David Lynch movies and TV series for years. The general atmosphere and moodiness I …
ASTRO-CREEP: 2000 – Songs of Love, Destruction and Other Synthetic Delusions of the Electric Head (GEFFEN, 1995) This is the fourth and final studio album by White Zombie. After this, the band disbanded and the mastermind behind it, Rob Zombie, continued his musical endeavours under his own artist name. In other words, White Zombie became …
ISI KÄSKEE – EP (SONY MUSIC, 2019) Aakkosmurha is both a single and a song from Paleface’s Isi käskee release. The song is good, and it’s about alphabets. Aakkosmurha literally means “alphabet murder”, and that’s exactly what Paleface is doing here: he’s killing it with his rhymes, going through the alphabet and delivering individual words …
PURGATORY (MOUTH OF BELIAL, 2020) Kill Everyone is the opening track on Purgatory by The Project Hate MCMXCIX, and also the most recent album (so far) for which I’ve created the cover art. Like most of The Hate’s material, the song runs well over ten minutes and unfolds as an epic journey against everything holy. …
ACTIVE: 2000- Paleface is a Finnish rap artist, writer, and activist who has been releasing music since the early 2000’s. At first he rapped in English, but since 2010 mainly in Finnish. Paleface could be described as left-leaning, and he has been active at many political and social events. A man with his heart in …
THE SATANIST (NUCLEAR BLAST, 2014) Messe Noire is one of the tracks on what I consider to be the best Behemoth album — and one of the best metal albums of all time. Every damn song on the album is perfect, Messe Noire being no exception. So naturally, the very moment I heard the album, …
ACTIVE: 1999– The Project Hate MCMXCIX is (literally) a project — or an entity, if you will — led by swedish multitalented and very productive musician Lord K. Philipson. Since 1999 the only permanent members have been Philipson and vocalist Jörgen Sandström (known from Grave, Entombed, Vicious Art, Torture Division and others). Philipson writes and …
TECHNODIKTATOR (OSASTO-A, 2013) Technodiktator is actually an album rather than a single song by Turmion Kätilöt. TO BE CONTIUNED ACT ONE | pencil & fineliner on paper | 2025 But here’s the twist: the chorus of the album’s final track, To be contiuned Act One, repeatedly chants “Technodiktator”. So that more or less gives me …
ACTIVE: 1991- Behemoth, a blackened death metal band from Poland — and one of my all-time favorites. Their 2014 release The Satanist is not only their best work, but also one of the few albums I consider among the greatest ever made by any band. I was most likely introduced to them by my friend …
VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER (ATCO, 1992) By Demons Be Driven is the tenth track on Vulgar Display of Power — the best Pantera album. The song is classic Pantera, and like every track on that record, it’s close to perfection. I’ve drawn a lot of Pantera sketches over the years, and back in my previous …
