Well, well....
As most of you know I have been trying to expand my protfolio into doing CD covers for bands, and my first effort was with a Vancouver heavy metal band called Cradle to Grave.
I try to follow the reviews of the CD hoping someone will mention the artwork.
This one on the Tower Records.com website - I have to like...

This is MY favorite line...

* Fantastic original artwork by ultra-talented artist Rob Will

Sorry to sound like I'm crowing - but being my photo buddies I thought you might be interested - not many people are.

Congratulations, Toad. It is really nice to see that your work has been appreciated and admired.

Congratulations Toad. I've been doing some posters for a few San Francisco bands for the last couple of years... haven't ventured as far as CD covers yet... and certainly not for anything that has been released.

Dude! A couple of friends' bands that I do assorted photo and sound work with, Antiquus and Splatter, just did a show with them a couple weeks ago at the Buffalo Club... unfortuantely I got there just as C2G was finishing up and only got to hear a bit from outside.
I've got lots of Splatter and Antiquus pics from that night - check'em out at http://www.moltenimage.com/photos/. I also recorded and mixed Antiquus' album... which I'm also watching the reviews of for any comments on the production (non thus far...)
