Synthosaurus



Cover for Brendan McGuigan's all-synth album. Brendan's concept for the illustration: "A T-rex wearing hi-tops and playing the synthesizers." After some discussion and beer we decided there should also be a pterodactyl, and it should also be playing synthesizers.

I will let you know when this album drops... Brendan may be releasing it on vinyl so the cover art will be extra huge, just as a dinosaur drawing ought to be.

Holyyyyy... I forgot how catchy that theme song is! His egg was like, preserved in tar or something, right? Then it hatched in 1990? Or something?
