Vicious Intent: The Art of Stainboy Reinel

by Greg "Stainboy" Reinel

Peeling out from the early punk rock scene (and once fronting his own turbocharged rock 'n roll dragster, Nutrajet) Stainboy's Day-Glo color, powerhouse line work and love of pop culture trash have made his eye-assaulting posters a perennial favorite among rock's cutting edge, including Motorhead, Buzzcocks, Sevendust, High on Fire and Nashville Pussy. Dripping with violent wit and dark humor, Stainboy's posters demand immediate attention, armed with loaded guns, busty broads, gleaming street machines and tributes to classic exploitation cinema. Stainboy's dossier has grown to include a diversity of work for clients such as the House of Blues, Fuse TV, Club International Magazine, Signatures Network and music venues around the world. His work is featured in The Art of Modern Rock (Chronicle Books), Swag Rock Posters of The '90s and Beyond (Abrams), Electric High Energy Punk Rock & Roll Poster Art (Dark Horse Books) and countless magazines and fanzines.
