Yeah Blacky is back in Voivod and has been for the last year.

Yeah, Voivod is all original now except for Piggy (RIP)...

This piece seems to be a comment on Kirk, James, and Lars.

Wow! You guys have no appreciation of abstract art at all. You can most certainly see the difference between Stanley and Newstead's art. They both have very distinct styles of painting. Stanley's is smoother and more airy, while Newsted has a more heavy handed look with thick strokes that add to the overall feel of the piece.

Good one Scott.

At least one person caught the sarcasm.

After 10 years, I've kinda figured out when you're serious and when you're being funny

He's got nothing on Bob Ross. Happy little trees...

Art doesn't always have to be strict, traditional interpretations...I kinda like the pics in this thread...

Sorry. I missed that. I was blinded by your fan-boy devotion to KISS.

Yeah I totally thought that was serious.

I can go to Sherwin Williams and see the same thing. I hate abstract art. I would rather see someone paint/draw the best they can,take their time with it, even if they're not good with anatomy, perspective, shading etc. At least it's an honest effort with vision. I'll take that any day then a splater- paint cop-out. Did you ever see that guy that does "barf-art" Yeah, that's right he swallows paint, then vomits it on to the canvas. I see no difference between that and what these clowns are doing.

Sorry but I see not artistic ability in any of those paintings. I've done better work myself and I am not an artist.

You got to be dropping acid to get anything from that preschool abstract style.

Smears and slop...

Yeah, this is just horrible, horrible art. Not my thing at all.

Lars Ulrich is also an 'abstract artist'. His paintings sell for God-awful amounts in New York.
