Black Lips (the band) Fan Art

This was a fun commission based on an inside joke. I am always happy to do that kinda thing. There was writing on the bottom and a byline, but we felt privacy should be intact instead of the cover. Anyway, Happy New year from Lattaland!
Check out my new favorite band, The Torments!
Take a listen to my boy, Abbey James. Go ahead and give him some like, too. Kno’ what I’m sayin’?
Members: Vocals – Eddie Cadaver, Guitar – James Von Ghastly, Bass – Victor Rottenfeller, Drums – Dr. Creep Guitar – Derek Obscura
