Full Metal Jacket

Originally created for the 2014 Thud, Crackle, Pop Exhibition.

This image is from a series of four created for Pete’s 2014 Thud, Crackle, Pop Exhibition. Each one of these paintings explores a specific genre of music through portraying a record store. Full Metal Jacket represents music from the metal and rock genre and includes iconic albums such as Metallica’s "Master of Puppets", Pink Floyd’s "The Dark Side of the Moon", and Black Sabbath’s "Heaven and Hell". When deciding on a list of records, Pete asked metal expert Dave Shack. Shack, who has management connections to Iron Maiden, was a former writer for the rock, punk, and heavy metal music magazine "Kerrang!".

Pete named this work after Stanley Kubrick’s 1987 film "Full Metal Jacket" and references the attire worn by metal fans. Their denim jackets are transformed into ‘full metal’ ones when they are adorned with patches representing the various metal bands they love.

'This essential collection of metal was compiled with the help of Dave Shack.'
