Happy Summer Solstice.

It's that time of year again...

Been getting many emails about the sale of the screened posters this coming weekend. The guys that run the store have informed me that they will go on sale at 1pm BST on Saturday. Lord help the server...

And don't forget the keychains too. They nice...

Amos x ATP Primavera Posters

Recently, in conjunction with All Tomorrows Parties,  Amos produced two silk screened posters designed by James, for the Primavera festival that recently took place in Barcelona. There are two versions.

The ATP edition (x 250)...



and a special Amos exclusive deluxe edition (x 50) signed by JJ.

We are super happy with how these came out. Both look amazing. The screeners did an excellent job. 

Very soon we will have very few of both to sell along with the keyrings we posted earlier. Check the store this weekend for more information.

JJ Update

Apologies for the paucity of our posting of late.

I've been busy with various projects, most importantly the birth of a new baby boy, who arrived on the 8th of May. He's four weeks old today, and we still haven't named him.

The other big thing I've been working on since the end of last year was a design for the mascot for the 2012 Olympic Games. I made a shortlist of 20, then a second shortlist of 5 and finally a shortlist of 4 (they were really putting themselves on the line with that decision). I finally heard (also on the 8th of May) that we hadn't made the next selection, which was a shame. It's frustrating to have put so much work into something which ended up going nowhere but so it goes. The experience of working on something like this has been quite a strange one: I think a lot of the decision making was political rather than creative. I found this hard to deal with having had so much freedom in the work I've been making recently.

I've also started a new blog for publishing my drawings here:

Hopefully that will be of interest when there are less big projects going on.

Coming Soon...

Available through the online store in the not too distant future.

Also on the horizon:

Official ATP/Primavera YOD screened poster prints, plus a special signed super limited Amos online store exclusive version. More soon...

The mighty Sleep

I've posted this in recognition of their two amazing performances at the All Tomorrow's Parties- The Fans Strike Back weekender earlier in the month. Their first performance together in more than 15 years. Mindblowing stuff. Doesn't get much better.

Honorable mentions for Electric Wizard, Jesu, Grails, M83, Sleepy Sun and Killing Joke!

And of course, once again, big thanks to Barry and D for their amazing hospitality.
