For all those that asked...

In my corner of the bass-playing universe there was life pre- and post-Mani. He brought a liquid, melodic funkiness that EVERYONE copied. And when I finally met him he was exactly how you imagined him: joyful, generous, unstarry (& more of a star because of it) and wickedly funny. A life well lived

Absolutely devastated to hear of the passing of Mani. It’s hard to overstate what a massive impact the Roses had on my formative years and beyond. I could talk about it for hours, but this isn’t the time or place. Rest in peace Mani.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the release of David Bowie’s Blackstar single, so I thought I’d post one of my favourite Bowie drawings to celebrate. (PS There’s still a few prints of it left if anyone’s interested)

A Devo drawing…

Screaming Trees comic corner box...

Been enjoying watching videos of Radiohead’s return to the stage last night. What a setlist! Anyway, seemed like a good excuse to repost this old favourite I drew a few years back.

That sounds amazing! I wish I could've seen them live at some point. Mark E. Smith had such a unique approach to vocals. I have a cool print of him (by @stuffbymark.bsky.social ) on the wall here that @lilmaggierose.bsky.social got me.

A Space Oddity. There's still some half price prints of this left if anyone's interested in either high brow art or bargains.

With Halloween a couple of days away I thought it’d be a good time to repost this series from early this year, where I reimagined a bunch of songs by US alt-rock bands as covers for old horror comics.

There's some prints of this available over on my website if anyone's interested... www.stuffbymark.co.uk/shop

The Clash’s Guns Of Brixton, if it was an old western film poster.

Happy belated birthday to The Cramps’ Lux Interior/Happy early Halloween. Here’s a Cramps comic book cover from a few years back, based on an old Tales From The Crypt cover by Jack Davis.

There's exactly three prints of this left. Feel to buy one of them... www.stuffbymark.co.uk/shop/p/bewit...

In tribute to the spookiest month of all, here’s a very stupid Siouxsie Sioux/Bewitched mashup I drew a year or two back.

BTW this is the Robert Smith artwork that so tickled DB. From the excellent @stuffbymark.bsky.social

#DoctorWho Postcards are now available to buy! 15 Doctors. 15 debut stories. Published by Penguin Books in another universe, in a different time. Get them here: colemandesign.co.uk/shop

A Woody Guthrie thing…

There’s a couple of prints left of this if anyone’s interested… www.stuffbymark.co.uk/shop/p/get-a...

Entries 1 to 43 of an ongoing project reimagining Beatles songs as old, mid century design inspired film posters.

Finally framed and put up a few @stuffbymark.bsky.social prints! Having Ian Curtis brooding in the corner of my dining room makes me laugh. I have a couple more prints that need frames.

Hüsker Doodle (n.b. A doodle of Hüsker Dü)

Talking Heads fan art volume 42,967.

It's Taskmaster day! 5 more contestants to draw sometime over the next 10 weeks!

A quick Tom Waits.

Another song reimagined as an old Archie Comics cover. This time for the mighty Supergrass!

A portrait of Klaus Nomi.

A short series from a few years back. If anyone’s interested, the last couple of prints of all of these are half price in the clearance sale over on my website.

Start spreading the news etc... I'm having a big clearance sale over on my website. There's lots of things reduced to 50%. Help me stave off eviction for another month by treating yourself to a print or two. www.stuffbymark.co.uk/shop/sale

Update Update Update - I just got an email from Alex Horne 😳

Beastie Boys’ Sabotage, if Beastie Boys’ Sabotage was an Archie Comic cover.

R.E.M. Secret Gig Shirts 🧵 A little personal project I decided to undertake on a whim. I’ve always loved the fact that R.E.M. used a bunch of pseudonyms for secret gigs over the years, so I thought I’d design a bootleg shirt for each of the ones I know about.

A few signed/numbered prints are available here… stuffbymark.co.uk/shop/kitchen-s…

Made a new colour variant of the The Jam entry from the Kitchen Sink Films series I did a while back, along with a few prints of it...

A recap of the Romance Comics series from earlier this year. A bunch of fake covers inspired by songs I love.

I asked my landlord who his favourite member of the Pet Shop Boys was, and his answer really created an unpleasant atmosphere

I finished reading Kevin Rowland’s autobiography yesterday. Ten out of ten, no notes etc. It’s left me loving Dexys Midnight Runners even more, somehow. Here’s a drawing I did of Mr Rowland immediately after finishing it, based on the far superior photo by Nicky Johnston.

The real Fantastic Four

Just stumbled upon this, no doubt expertly researched, book. Never seen this photo of R.E.M. before! Looks like they’re on their way to learn/sing some songs.

Here’s a link to my shop for anyone interested. Retweets massively appreciated… stuffbymark.co.uk/shop
