Insurgency Tour

I was lucky enough to get the chance to design the entire profile for this crazy tour taking part in Norway this summer. This is going to be something you don't want miss out on.

Here's a description in the bands own words:


"Apeiron Restraint will commence on an epic journey this summer. Taking place in the southern half of Norway from July 17 - August 13, we will lay out on the Insurgency Tour: A Tour in Four Acts. Joining us are awesome bands from a wide range of the Norwegian metal scene. As a nomad metal circus, a couple of fresh bands will play with us every week when the we return to town.

Seven venues in seven cities. 28 concerts in 28 days, 8000km on the road. The tour is completely financed out of the band members’ pockets. Apeiron Restraint is now working as a label, management, and booking agency as we book all the bands and venues personally. The locations for the tour will be, in order: Molde, Bergen, Stavanger, Kristiansand, Oslo, Lillehammer, and Trondheim.

This is madness. A tour concept like this has never been done in Norway ever. The film documentarists from News on Request (known for producing Himmelblå and Død Snø) are sending a camera crew along on the road to make a 50 minute documentary about the tour. We are launching a PledgeMusic campaign to help materialize the creation of this documentary."

Anyway, here's the main promo posters:

Below here is how I got to that point. I had an idea to map some of the elements from the original artwork into a more hand drawn thing. The only problem was that the whole thing looked a bit to black metal. I guess they needed something a bit more in your face. The final result is elements from the original artwork and some elements from this drawing. 

The tour poster is aslo going to be printed in different version with tour dates, and bands, and some of the artwork is going to be used on t-shirts, posters etc.
