Ebony Sorrow (2012)

So, here’s the logo I drew up local Black Metal junkies, Ebony Sorrow(who all fans of black metal should check out)…

Ebony Sorrow - Fierce Fucking Winds

I recently did a logo for these guys… I might post it later…

Hey man, I’m the drummer for Art By Numbers and I just wanted to thank you for sharing our music a while ago. In case you didn’t know, we’re about to release our first album on our own and every little bit of help goes along way. We really appreciate the fact that you dig us enough to share us and we’d love it if you could continue to spread the word, if it isn’t too much to ask. :)

Thanks again.

No problem-oh, dude! You guys are putting out some really great tunes and I’m glad you’re not confined to any of the oh-so popular musical trends of today. If you guys ever tour the east coast, I’ll definitely stop out and watch(and so should everyone else!!)… So, if you’re into classically-influence metal, I’d definitely suggest checking this band. Their full length album comes out May 29th and I personally can not wait.. Check ‘em out and listen to some snazzy riffage- http://www.facebook.com/ArtByNumbers

RIP - Jean Giraud aka Moebius

Sad to hear that the unique and talented French comic artist Moebius has passed away. As well as producing his own work, he had done some concept work for film projects such as Dune (the unmade Jodorowsky version), Alien, and Blade Runner (which itself was inspired by Moebius’ comic ‘The Long Tomorrow’, which you can see at The Bronze Age of Blogs:

Back in 1976, Jean Giraud was working on Alejandro Jodorowsky’s ill-fated production of Dune, supplying concepts and designs.
One of the people in charge of special effects for the movie was Dan O’Bannon, who wrote Alien, Blue Thunder & Return Of The Living Dead, but who fans of a certain age will always remember as whiny astronaut Pinback in his & John Carpenter’s sci-fi black comedy Dark Star.
Both men were sitting around Paris for months, with basically nothing to do, while the film shuddered to a slow halt around them, so O’Bannon started drawing comics.
One of the comic strips he drew was a futuristic detective story called The Long Tomorrow. Moebius loved it, and immediately drew his own version, which was eventually published in Heavy Metal.
A few years later, O’Bannon was working on Alien, and asked Moebius to come in and do some more design work. He met with director Ridley Scott, who later asked him to work on Blade Runner, but Giraud regrettably had to pass as he was already working on an animated feature called The Time Masters ( which I recommend if you ever get the chance to see it )

Worth checking out if you have a spare hour is the BBC4 documentary ‘In Search of Moebius’ - split into three parts and embedded below:

A truly saddening day it has been… R.I.P Moebius…
