Rock ‘N’ Roll Forever!
Rock ‘n’ Roll will never die, or so it seems according to the latest winning tee at South African t-shirt community Springleap.com. This rather fetching punk/grunge style design was submitted by Suburbanhijinx and it’s his first of what should hopefully be many more fab illustrated tees. Using a variety of techniques including half-tone and grunge vectors, this photo montage piece definitely leaps out from the cotton, highly reminiscent of punk wear in Britain in the 1970’s, the image features a skull-faced rocker clad in leathers and sporting an impressive Mohawk haircut.
Here’s what the artist says about Stayin Alive – ‚ÄúKeeping in mind the theme of rock‚ĶI was thinking of what kind of ‚ÄúROCK‚Äù ideas I could do with out some crazy dragon or epic looking character with lightning bolts‚ĶI was immediately drawn to memories of old punk rock music zines. I did this design inspired by those photocopied, underground, phenomena. Hope you like it!‚Äù.
Love the decayed look and feel of this tee, take a look for yourself!

I’d love to see a few more close-ups, it would be nice to think that all the news print in the background related to escapades of unruly punk rockers in the past. The typography is superb, a cut-up collage style almost suited to a ransom note from some nutter or other, which frames a great composition too. This is definitely steering away from Springleap’s usual design favourites, not a clean and colourful vector in sight! You can buck the system and introduce a little anarchy into your own life with the Stayin’ Alive tee for £12 / ‚Ǩ15 / $19 on pre-order here. Available in white, sizes S to L for girls and S to XXL for guys.
