Pushead

Here is Thrasher's September 1987 issue, with the fresh artwork by Pushead, who has made quite a name for himself through the years, most noteably designing cover art designs for groups like metallica and Dr. Octagon to name a few.

Pushead worked as an artist and writer for Thrasher during the late 80's and early 90's, and had his own section in the magazine entitled the 'Pus Zone' where he would discuss music and make social commentary.

The skulls and shit were not so much my taste back then as I associated them with metal and metal heads and so forth, a scene which I wasn't much into, but over the years Pushead's work has grown on me. He's stayed consistent with the way he does his art, and you can always tell when a work is his. He recently designed a pair of Nike SB's which are really flavor.
