- Oh shut up you wouldn't have thought twice if it hadn't been a flag. If you were going to claim rip it's more Rauschenberg than anything.max_prophet

Certainly played a party in why I wanted to be a designer, he was as important to Mo Wax and Talkin' Loud as Saville & 8vo were for Factory!!!

Indeed, I was a religious follower of the Straight No Chaser massive and huge fan of Swifty and mitchy bwoy, nice to see the prior FINALLY has a proper website..

I've never understood why everyone raves about him?

For me, I was well into to the music first and design second at that time. When I was starting design school, I really didn't like the graphic history we were being taught about, nor did I care much for the contemporaries at the time, like Carson and Brody... and coming from a graf-writing background, being into hip hop and the acid jazz scene, his work always spoke louder to me than the more traditional graphic design of the day.
Granted, it didn't last very long...

It amazes me how he makes a living!
- His work is still relevant, I think he still does some pretty good sleeve work, guess it's about contextuncle_helv
