This is the twelfth and final edition of Soundscreen Design's Artist Music Journals series, featuring the work of Eye, known primarily as the vocalist for the Japanese band Boredoms and also for his prolific visual art portfolio. He used this project as an opportunity to design for dozens of imaginary bands, including original album art and vinyl details. One of our very favorite and most original releases in the series, we couldn't think of a better way to close the door on Volume One.
