Zombie!


This is my latest page for the "Turn it up swap" journal. However, this is nothing to do with shambling, brain-eating undead. It's a song about the futility of violence, a 1994 protest song by The Cranberries, based on the troubles in Northern Ireland, but particularly the Warrington bomb attacks which resulted in the death of two young boys.

    I never knew about the meaning of that song! Thank you!

    And, your art is amazing! I love the juxtaposition of the monochrome zombies with the brightly-colored text!

    Quite an impactful work which sends out a very strong message. In a very unpatronising way I say.... very well done, you!

    VERY powerful. Would have made a terrific CD cover for the group.
