just saw this today. these wussies have blatantly ripped off 50/50's artwork for their debut 7 inch. They added their logo to it and colored it in and cropped some of it too but it's obvious whose artwork this is. do like i've done and message them telling them they are wimpy rip-offs!!! it's obvious these dudes don't know their history by naming themselves after one of my all time favorite bands. FUCK RIP-OFFS!!!!!! www.myspace.com/carnagethrash

sometimes it makes for a joke. we shredded the Void cover from the Faith/Void split for a gag shirt... and they turned out quite well. no one cried.
When Mabro dropped the Mayeven 7", Jared and Charlie hacked everyone's cover art onto the mayeven records as a joke (but for only like 25 copies). it was funny seeing a Necros cover on sleepy, boring assed Mayeven's record, though. so the gag worked.
basically, you'll get over it. if not, send them a message and tell them that you know what they did last summer.

Ripping off current/newish bands is weak. The hardcore band xRhinocerousx used the Rhino Charge 7" cover without asking anyone, but I think it was just up on their Myspace and they took it down.

ok, so i infer that in the instances cited, parody was not the point, so i can agree with the context of the argument a little better. a blatant, direct rip could get someone a beat-down. where as, using the same commonly available image is more of a; "Doh /wah-wah" pete meets re-peat scenario.

Yeah, they actually credited someone for the artwork. So basically all that guy did was color it and change the band logo?

Yeah I saw that album cover a while ago... I kinda laughed at it...
For anyone who can't see it: it's a World Extermination rip off.

Haha, I was going to post that actually when I saw that thread. The label that put it out is putting out some Innocent Victims of War comp I was going to try and get on. I saw that and lolled heartily.

they must've taken down the 50/50 ripoff, because i don't see it on there. what a bunch of douchebags. that 50/50 cover is the best cover art ever. i want a huge ass poster of it.
