Flogging Molly
Our homies at Side One Dummy hired us to art direct the new Flogging Molly album. Here’s the final cover:
Along the way we developed a number of cover treatments, some that we may or may not have been more enthusiastic about, here’s a sampling:

Nice job on the new cover. Who’s responsible for which cover treatments above?
Flogging Molly is alright, and apparently a favorite of local pirates (and I don’t mean music thieves)… this past summer (almost fall), a string of noisy boats dressed in red sails and jolly roger flags anchored out on the Merrimack on an early and rainy sunday morning (although I think it was still sat.night to them). The decks were packed with puffy-sleeved pirates in feathered hats & boots and a blaring arsenal of flogging molly which they shouted & stomped to, while firing off bottle rockets and cherry bombs… It was a trip to watch through binoculars and the scene attracted every boat on the river -it actually started to resemble a marina down there. Eventually the harbor master showed up and moved them along… I can still see the parade, fading in a line around the bend, and the low end of The Seven Deadly Sins still audible behind it…
