Oblivion Waits

Overview

Await the Dawn is a metal band from Albuquerque, New Mexico. They approached me to create a logo for their band, a single cover, the EP cover for their first release, and a visualizer for Spotify. I guided the band through their first effort to brand themselves and led the creative direction for the band’s first artworks.

Await the Dawn released Oblivion Waits on Halloween of 2023.

Approach:

At the time the band approached me they were still very early in the process of creating music as a group. We tapped into the various elements of the members character, interests, and backgrounds to distinguish a starting direction for the band’s aesthetic and word mark.

Logo

Creating something that was distinct and legible, yet still aggressive were some of the main takeaways from my first meetings with the band. I designed their mark to have strong movement, and aggressive shapes without cluttering up the letters too much. Creating a strong symmetrical look helped the mark identify itself clearly with the rock/metal genres but more on the side of rock rather than extreme metal with the clean letters. Finally, roughing up the type gave it an even more aggressive look, and the iron sun at the top helped connect their mark with the sentiment of their name.

Gospel of the Godless (Single)

As their first piece of artwork we used the single cover as a playground to explore ideas. The song was written about the weaponization of religion so it has a lot of dark themes. I wanted to create strong imagery for the cover that would reflect those themes and illuminate them in a cool way. The final artwork depicts a fearful young human being slowly corrupted and overpowered by demonic, withered hands of religious creatures inside of a tortured fever dream-like reality.

Oblivion Waits (EP Cover)

After finding a good rhythm with the single cover, we embarked on the EP cover. The band had a few songs written at the time but not the complete EP. From what the band did have I was able to interpret a lot of themes of mental toil and struggle. Members of the band shared their individual stories and writings for the music to help illuminate the final direction for the art. The Oblivion Waits cover reflects those stories with a tortured character who wears a blinding crown of light battling a maelstrom of demons. This graphic captures the aggressive, tumultuous, and hopeful energy of the group I feel and creates a compelling visual motif for listeners to enjoy.

Art Direction & Artwork | Soundscapes

Abel Sequera is one of the most talented drummers and composers coming out of the rock and metal scene in Spain. Alongside guitar player, producer and composer Carles Salse (and with the help of dozens of musicians from across the globe) they created Soundscapes, a conceptual progressive metal album that tells the story of the great spiritual and philosophical journey of a being roaming the unknown in search of new horizons.

I was brought on board of this ambitious and meticulous album to capture the story and translate it into images. The album includes a 44-page booklet featuring a series of double-page illustrations conceived specifically for each particular song. Making the most out of the panoramic format, the images are conceived like frames from a movie.

Reel Long Overdub - Branding

Reel Long Overdub

We were commisioned last year by the super enigmatic London/Leeds based record label and party promoters Reel Long overdub to create a logo and a label template to use for there heavily sought after 7inch records.

When we were working on the logo we took inspiration from label founders Brudenell Groove's infamous castle party teepee tent. This feautures as a motif of the top of the teepee pointing towards a combiantion symbol of the sun and moon, a hint to the type of events that the label puts on in the day and night.

We rounded this off with a radiant cirlce, hinting to the vinyl the label releases and balanced with bold typeface underneath.

On the vinyl label templates we wanted to create something colorful, eccentric with a design that would be mesmerising whilst spinning on a record player but also legible for djs when finding the track information.

Hassle Records Logo

Commissioned to create a vintage style logo for Hassle Records that would better fit in with the cover art of their artist's new album, Ithaca's "they fear us". Was used in a number of other places now too.
