the scene is already too saturated with clothing companies with
bad designs and horrible bands. clandestine is an attack on these stale ideas of nautical stars and pogo parts. clandestine is not a clothing company. it is not a band. it is a story based on a nightmare. the book will be released on Halloween
2004. it is called "clandestine industries presents: the boy with the thorn in his side".
The Book:
This is a story based on the real nightmares of Peter Wentz, lyricist and bass player from the band Fall Out Boy. The memories of these nightmares have stayed with him since he was young. Putting them on
paper was a form of closure, as well as a way to relive them (again and again). With the visual inspiration of world famous tattoo artist
Tim Biedron, these images came to life. Illustrated by
Joe Tesauro with intense colors by Rob Dobi, the pictures tell the story that kept the young Peter Wentz awake at
night. It is dark and it is twisted. It is for every
heart that is too
heavy for the legs that carry it.
