See the Mind-Bending, Grotesque Artwork of PÄR OLOFSSON

Published

Pär Olofsson is the king of death metal and thrash album art, and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to feature his artwork on our site. He disembowels humanity with his paintbrush. He dives into abysses of vitriolic disgust and rides out on waves of blood. He’s done album covers for Exodus, Abysmal Dawn, Slaughter, Prevail, Aborted, and many more. Below check out some of the most mind-bending, grotesque artwork I’ve ever seen grace a gatefold…

Meghan MacRae grew up in Vancouver, Canada, but spent many years living in the remote woods. Living in the shadow of grizzly bears, cougars and the other predators of the wilderness taught her about the dark side of nature, and taught her to accept her place in nature's order as their prey. She is co-founder of CVLT Nation.

LA hardcore “S.O.H,” formed by members of Artificial Joy who are known for their split with SKITKLASS, have released their 1st album. BREAK THE RECORDS https://breaktherecords.bandcamp.com/ For some people, the songs already released are enough to feel a jolt of excitement. Their sound built on a variety of riffs, rhythms, and the impact of Kristine’s ever-changing vocals, make them a force not entirely defined by D-BEAT or FAST/POWER VIOLENCE. Their appetite to devour a variety of approaches to hardcore puts them at the pinnacle of the genre’s continuing evolution. Come check them out on tour in Japan during October 2024 and keep on eye on what will happen in the future. 1.Delirium 2.Walang Paglaya 3.All Heart 4.Cost To Live 5.Radiation 6.Prize Pig 7.Annihilate 8.Restless 9.Dead Anyway 10.Generation
SOH: DELIRIUM
