Art is totally metal
A year ago Paul Romano gave up a lucrative design business that rivaled Mattell and took up painting cyclops and skinless bodies.
Romano holds a consulting job at Relapse Records - a dream job for someone who wants to indulge in the insane imagination.
Why do you care about him? He works with Mastodon and Trivium, amongst many other metal bands. And while Trivium's music isn't that great, their art work certainly is.
Mastodon's album covers and merchandise is fucking mind-blowing and adds images to their crazy lyrics: a blood mountain, crystal skulls, cyclops, three-headed deers and human-eating wolfs dance across t-shirts and CDs.
You know what else is cool? Romano is my friend...well, on MySpace.
If you're wearing a beret and sipping a skim mocha, his art site is here. Alternatively if you're passionate about all things metal, click on the site as well.
