I’ve been listening a lot lately to the new Modest Mouse album, “We Were Dead Before the Ship Even Sank,” and I love it. Some especially good tracks are Dashboard, Parting of the Sensory, Fire It Up, and Spitting Venom. You should definitely check out the album.
I didn’t want to wait to have it shipped to me, so I got mine from iTunes, which let me download a PDF of the album art. It was really neat, and inspired me to do this drawing at work. It’s kind of a combination of a concept from the album title and the tentacle-ish artwork in the CD booklet. …and, honestly, who doesn’t love pirate ships? Anyone? No, I didn’t think so.
You may also notice that I’m posting more often. I realized I was getting really backed up, and the sketches I’ve been doing at work have been piling up. Unless I post them on here, they don’t really get showcased anywhere, so I figured this was the best way to show them to all of you. Hope you’re enjoying them! Let me know if you are. The more feedback I get, the more likely I am to do more of this. I thrive on feedback. Gimme!
