October IST


I know, I know... first I don't do a post for September, now I'm picking songs. Well, you're about to like me even less. My shuffle says October IST will be Millencolin, Mr.Clean from the 1998 album Same Old Tunes. Not only that but the (diabolical) limitation, which is a pain in the back side by the way, is... it's gotta be in CD format. So 123x123mm, with a spine and a title. You can use whatever title you like, only the subject should be Mr.Clean. The reason for this is that Millencolin have a history of designing their own artwork for their records, and as a hats off to their efforts we will use that restriciton this month. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Peace, happy October!

There She Goes My Beautiful World - Reeko

Death of worlds was were I was at with this one. How could I not throw in monsters and scantily clad women? What else happens at the apocalypse?!

On another note I really enjoyed the "no drawing" thing. Found it very liberating!

There She Goes My Beautiful World - Gallusness



A pretty straight forward solution from me this month. Looking at the lyrics there is real redemptive theme going on. Using this months limitation of no drawing it was a case of finding images to bring the song to life and trying to then get a sweet composition (bit trickier than I'd imagined in both respects). Some of the images are directly referenced in the lyrics and others just seemed to fit/felt right. I also wanted to use a more limited colour palette as I felt it would help bind the sourced elements together.
