ACTIVE: 1973–2023 KISS is a hard rock band from the States which was active for 50 years. The band recorded a shitload of albums during their existence — and a lot of them are actually pretty darn good. My soft spot is their 1980’s releases. The very first song from them I remember hearing was …
WOLVERINE BLUES (EARACHE, 1993) Wolverine Blues is both an album released by Entombed and the third song on that very record. What’s also cool is that this is kind of comeback album for lead singer LG Petrov, who was fired just before the band started to record their 2nd album Clandestine. Fortunately they talked things …
CLANDESTINE (EARACHE, 1991) Sinners Bleed is the second song from Entombed’s Clandestine album and it’s among their best-known songs. It’s also one of my favorites from this band. Entombed have played this song live every time I saw them, which probably tells a lot about this song. In 1993 I wanted to paint the whole …
ACTIVE: 1987– Entombed is a truly legendary band from Sweden. Along with Dismember, Grave, and Unleashed, they are often referred to as one of the “big four” of Swedish death metal. Ever since I first heard Entombed’s second album Clandestine, I was hooked. I remember that my crew mate Rosk was also very much into …
VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER (ATCO, 1992) A New Level is the second track on Pantera’s maybe the best album, Vulgar Display of Power. And naturally some decades after it’s release, I’ve been wanting to paint or draw something more up-to-date from it. So far no graffiti, but at least I managed to draw a few …
VULGAR DISPLAY OF POWER (ATCO, 1992) A New Level is the second track on Pantera’s Vulgar Display of Power album. For some reason, when I first heard the album — and for a few years after — I didn’t pay much attention to it. But over time, I found myself liking it more and more. …
ACTIVE: 1981-2003, 2023- Pantera was a heavy metal band from the U.S. They had a long career that came to an end in 2003. My interest has always been on their work between 1990 and 2001. I was introduced to their music by my crew mate Tango. This happened in 1992, right after the release …
LEGION (ROADRUNNER, 1992) Caco was one of my tags which I came up with after I heard Satan Spawn, the Caco-Daemon. Which, of course, is a song by Deicide. So, the first picture is the second Caco I ever painted. The 2nd Caco was also the largest graffiti piece I painted solo during that decade. …
LEGION (ROADRUNNER, 1992) Satan Spawn, the Caco-Daemon is the opening track on Deicide’s 1992 release Legion — still, to this day, my favorite album from the band. I was so influenced by the album that I actually chose Caco as one of the many alternative tags I used during the ’90s. Here’s a soft/bubble letter …
ACTIVE: 1987– The killing of God. Anyone who knows me and my graffiti history should know that I’ve had a soft spot for Deicide for a very long time. I think most of the band references I used to write during the nineties came from Deicide, Pantera, and Entombed. These bands were the cornerstones of …
