Official website for Sevendust guitarist Clint Lowery's solo project "Hello Demons". He basically gave us the go ahead to do whatever we wanted as long as he could sell CD's & Tshirts, be one page, and include the cover art for the new CD. This is what we came up with ... a nice clean simple 1 page design with blog, twitter feed, store, music player, and ad space. We just love working with Mr. Lowery ... and GO BUY THE ALBUM!
This is a 6 color T-Shirt shirt design for the band Eye Empire called "Empire Cross". We took the flag logo (which we designed) and made a cross variation using the vertical stripes and horizontal white middle of the flag. The band loved the design and has since told us that this is one of their most popular merchandise items!
This is a 6 color T-Shirt shirt design for the band Eye Empire called "Eyewo Jima". We thought it would be cool to have that famous pic of the victorious soldiers at Iwo Jima raising the Eye Empire flag on a tshirt design so we came up with this and the band loved it.
This is a 2 color babydoll shirt design for the band Eye Empire. They wanted a "property of eye empire" theme for their female fans so we took the 2nd and 3rd "e's" in the logo we previously designed for them and turned it into a dripping bleeding heart shape.
Official website for the band Eye Empire. They wanted a "grungy themed" multiple page layout that would be easily tied into their album artwork and existing social network. They also wanted an easy content management system installed so they could update the website themselves easily from the road. There is some very extensive backend coding on this website.
This is the cover artwork for the 2nd limited edition pressing of "Moment Of Impact" by Eye Empire which is effectivly titled "v1.2". We used the design we did for the v1.0 version as a baseline and added alot more red to transition to their flag logo and changed the iris to feature their "empire seal" logo.
The official logo we designed for the band Tanamashu. Tanamashu is a very heavy band so we went with a gritty almost illegible style for their official logo. We made 4 different logos for them to choose from and this is what the band liked.
This is the cover artwork for the limited edition album "Moment Of Impact v1.0" by Eye Empire. There was alot of different directions we went with in doing this design. Actually, there was about 26 different versions we came up with and this is what the band eventually locked in on. Creepy eyeball with reversed/mirrored logo.
Official website for the Back Stage Bar in Cleveland Ohio. We did a new front end facelift as well as a complete back end overhaul and cleanup of their existing website to make it easier for them to update the website, add events, and manage their email lists.
Official website for the band Sevendust incorporating the artwork from their album "Cold Day Memory". They wanted a nice clean page where they could post news, video updates, photos, etc. There is a ton of backend coding on this one. We wanted to allow the band to be 100% "hands on" with their updates so we designed this website to be the central hub of Sevendust's entire social network. There are only 6 elements to the design that update ... and all 6 do this automatically (as the band adds new tour dates, posts a tweet, adds their photos to flickr, or updates their youtube videos etc).
Official website for the Slim & Chubby's bar/restaurant chain in Ohio. We did a new front end facelift as well as a complete back end overhaul and cleanup of their existing asp system to make it easier for them to update the website, add events, and manage their email lists.
The official logo we designed for the band Eye Empire. The band wanted pretty much the exact opposite of the "usual" logos of bands in their genere. They also wanted something that was clean and brandable. This was actually the very first logo we designed and the band loved it.
This is an alternate logo for the band Eye Empire. This logo incorporates everything their original logo does but can be used to fit into longer spaces. The band wanted pretty much the exact opposite of the "usual" logos of bands in their genere. They also wanted something that was clean and brandable.
Official website for the band Sevendust. They wanted a nice clean page where they could post news and video updates from the studio as they record their new album.

Official website for guitarist B.C. Kochmit. He wanted something as simple as possible but not boring to look at. We went with multiple page headers that change based on the section you are viewing and also used extensive mouseovers to make the tv change based on the menu item you hover over. We programmed a content management system so he can easily update it himself as well as have his admins be able to do the same. We also built a myspace profile to match the theme of this website.
This is a logo we designed for the band Sick Circle. We came up with about 6 or 7 designs overall and let the band choose the one that they felt would be the best fit. With the band name being "Sick Circle" we naturally wanted to include some sort of orbital/circular element into the design. The band also wanted something on the dirtier side so we added that element in as well. Overall the band was very pleased with the outcome.
This is the logo we designed for Vile Clothing Company. They wanted a simple, 1 color, easily recognizable, and brandable logo. We did about 15 or so mockups of different designs for them to choose from and they wound up choosing this one (which was our favorite as well). Since the company sells edgy, obscene, and downright vile t-shirts we thought the pentigram would be a great fit and they agreed. We are now contracted to do t-shirt designs for them as well.
This is the cover artwork & layout for the album "Guitarded" by guitarist B.C. Kochmit. He wanted something simple yet dirty looking. The only guidelines we were given was to include his trademark black stripes and to include the color red. So that's exactly what we did, and here is what we came up with.
Album cover artwork & layout for "Chills" for Clint Lowery's (Sevendust) solo project Hello Demons Meet Skeletons. We were given free reign to do whatever we wanted so we did 4 mockups and he chose this one. With the band name being Hello Demons Meet Skeletons it seemed only fitting to have some demon and skeleton imagery going on so that's what we did. We also went with a lighter color scheme because your first instinct would be to see something dark and we are known for going "against the grain". Mr. Lowery was very pleased with the final product.
Concert flyer for the band Dark New Day for their 09.06.08 show in Marietta, GA @ Three Bears Cafe. We used the "sawblade" logo we did for them and put that on top of an old civil war map of the greater Atlanta metro area centering the logo over the city of Marietta.
This is a 1 color t-shirt design for Obscene Clothing Company. We rocked a vintage german theme on this one. The only guidelines we were given was to include their company logo (which we designed), include the skull (which is a trademark on all their apparel), and to make the design 1 color only.

This is the logo we designed for Obscene Clothing Company. They also wanted a simple, 1 color, easily recognizable, and brandable logo. They did tell us however that they wanted a design that looked like it was printed in wet paint and was dripping. We did about 5 or so mockups of different designs for them to choose from and they wound up choosing this one. We are now contracted to do t-shirt designs for them as well.
This is a logo we designed for the band Dark New Day. They wanted something circular with their initials in it so that's exactly what we gave them. We also twisted up the letter "N" to give the whole logo a chinese throwing-star kind of feel to it. The band was very pleased with the final product.
This is a logo we designed for the deathmetal/mathcore band My Alter Ego Experiment. They wanted something "dirty looking" and "hard to read, but not hard to read" for their logo. We did 4 to 6 mockups of various styles and the band chose this one. The band praised us well for the work we did and asked us to do their album artwork and merchandise designs as well.
Official website we designed for the band Switched in 2006. They wanted a full website that would match the artwork for their "Ghosts In The Machine" album so we took the hi-res files they sent and built this snazzy little website around it.
