-Pushead-
Once you get over the mispronunciation or misspelling of the name... it’s
PUSHEAD. No cats, no doors to pull, just the oozing type, know what I mean? Pushead
is currently celebrating the 25th anniversary of the nomme de plume. From roots
that began in Boise, Idaho, where iconic classics such as the Misfits ‘Evileye’ and
the Exploited ‘Mohican Skull’ were created, to the double decade
home stand in San Francisco, where it all began to gel. Metallica, going on 20
years of merch with the created Damaged Skull, to Motley Crue, Corrosion of Conformity,
Prong, Cocobat, Kylesa, and even the infamous Dr. Octagon cover are just the
tip of the iceberg. A widely recognized part of the skateboard and hardcore punk
world, with graphics for Zorlac, Thrasher (where the cult following of the ‘Puszone’ grew),
Conspiracy, and the list goes on. Record labels, clothing companies, merchandise,
toys, consultant, vocalist / songwriter, and not to mention those endless hours
of scratching away on white paper, which seems to be what most people know Pushead
for. Somewhere, somehow, if you did or didn’t know, a Pushead piece has
pass by you sometime. Everything else is just a name game.
