From the early days with Syd Barrett to the Roger Waterless Division Bell, Pink Floyd laid down an impressive body of sound images that few bands can ever hope to rival. There’s even allot of great solo work to love. The most known symbol for Pink Floyd is the Dark Side of the Moon cover […]

Being a big Led Zeppelin fan, I had to make some sort of Zeppelin shirt. But what was I to do? Unlike a band like the Grateful Dead, who had a plethora of iconography to choose from, Led Zeppelin had limited visual symbolism.
