April Album - The April Skyline

BJ's Words:


I had an idea to dedicate the album to one of the gentlemen that are doing this music experiment with me, the artwork was very difficult to decide on and I made probably 7-8 different covers, with this one winning out. I'm still not very impressed with the small text or the way it looks, but it was better than the other 6 or 7. After this album I picked up my game with design and took it more seriously.

Some Nights (Intro) - Fun
Pot Kettle Black - Tilly and the Wall

My Thoughts:


This album isn't my favourite artwork but i love to this one on in the car, especially if i don't know what i want to listen to. It has some great songs on it and really gets you singing along. 

We'd love to know what you think of The April Skyline and if you would like a digital copy of the album send me an email silhouettesofknights@gmail.com

That's a keeper!

I'm one of those people that keeps everything. Good or bad, i have a a hard copy, a soft copy and a few backups. I don't know why i've just always kept things. 
I think it's because weather the memory is good or bad, i dont want to forget the things that have happened in my life.

Tonight i was browsing through some old logos and things i've designed over the years and i came across a comic i did in 2006. It was called 'Mutilated Lips'. There were 8 in total but looking back i only really like 6 of them. 

I thought i'd share the first one with you guys.



Let me know what you think of my strange comic.
