Brazilian graphic designer and illustrator Butcher Billy got the idea of turning famous love hits into book covers of horror master Stephen King.
Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart,” The Smiths, “Head Over Heels” by Tears For Fears and many others were portrayed in a very unusual way.
“This series imagines an alternate universe where some of the most desperate and tragic romantic songs in the ‘70s and’ 80s are actually books written by Stephen King. The concept is to look at the dark side of love by the vision of pop culture, bringing aspects of its classic stories to play the true meaning of the songs – this can be completely subverted or stressed strangeness, while paying tribute to the vintage design of the original covers,” Butcher writes on his Behance.
I’m a … theatre. artist. why do I do, the work? for one reason: to BORE my friends. the FEELING of making my friends sit through three hours of my BOLD choices, and relate to none of it, it’s, electric! why theatre will never die: because our friends and family have to KEEP coming. BOLD theatre is supposed to make you ask questions, questions like, WHY is he barefoot? I hope he doesn’t get NUDE like last time. can I pull the fire alarm to end this sooner? if I fill my cheeks up with enough air will I float away like a BAlloon? I’m a very horny person. that’s why I get into the work.
