new works by:
HUNTER HANCOCK (pdx)
Hunter Hancock’s illustrative work in a show inspired by psychedelia, occult imagery, and other gloomy nihilist ramblings. Hunter has defected to the evil side of art- using his illustrative style to skew the world through a dark, surreal lens, including backwards writing and opting for non-archival materials to emphasize the image over the object.
This is the front and back for Vancouver's Manic Attracts. CMR has been designing this for a longgggg time and finally came up with art for it. :D
This is for the band The Bellys from New Orleans. Its a small tape release on Crystal Rock Records. The Bellys are a future CMRTYZ band- so stay tuned for more news!
We stumbled across some other videos of the live bands that played. Thanks, loopyvids! They've got other cool music videos on their youtube page. Search em.
Went through some of the archives to find some old pieces that were either never made, stopped in production, or went different directions mid project. More to come soon as I clean out my inbox some more. To that end here is a poster that was never made too:
We hung with herb and sam today at the space. We listened to bands who are playing at our SXSW party, smoked cigs, ate samies, and made this little book for CMRs art show at Arabica lounge on OCT29th
THE EXCUSE just interviewed CMR for their newest edition. Printed in Amsterdam and with quite a fucked up time difference check out the normal Q & A style mixed together with live chats on the sides. Pretty funny. Good Qs, questionable As
If you're in Vancouver BC on Friday, 22 - come check out this show. It's monster themed and will be having 3 additional artists besides CMR. There will be beer and music. Also, I hear there is an Indian Wars show that night too. Afterparty.
Still making more and more covers and getting mones to send out records to everyone that ordered them. Cassie/Beets recs will be at the merch tables soon and Rough Trade stores in London! Yay!
