Sweet Warlock bro


Yep. Molly Hatchet. Stoner Rock. I don't know too much about them, but, when I was a wee lad(like 5), I obsessed over my Dad's huge record collection, and he would let me take out albums, and attempt to draw the covers.(Might explain my present day weirdo-ness).

None were obsessed over as much as Molly Hatchet's realistic "fantasy" album covers. This one especially. I seriously used to just stare at this thing, but, what's not to like when you're 5 yrs old?

1. Badass warlock dude

2. Badass bloody hatchet

3. Badass, pissed off steed of death

4. Badass, ominous vulture, ready to feed on whatever that hatchet fucked up

Added sweetness- It also kinda looks like the bad dude from Willow, that Val Kilmer(Madmardigan), ended up besting with dry cool wit, and master swordplay....I think.(Might've been Willow, that killed that guy......whatever, he looked fucking awesome.)

I told this story to a friend, so she comes back, a week or two later, and had scored this album for me somewheres. So stoked.
Bonus pic!- A couple of us then decided to try and re-enact what our Dad's were probably doing with an album cover so majestic, and moving. I think Tai, not only captured the spirit, but, the look and feel of the mid-70's. Fuckin' hippy.
