Otto Dix was a German artist who was forced to join the Nazi Party's Reich Chamber of Fine Arts and was later accused and arrested for being part of a plot to assassinate Hitler. After the war, his paintings became "depictions of post-war suffering". Some of his work has been used by hardcore bands including Contempt, Brethren, Forfeit, and Timebomb. The most famous is "Trench Warfare" which (as far as I know) was first used by Timebomb on their "Hymns For A Decaying Empire" record on S.O.A. Records.

hello
can you upload brethren?
This is an interesting angle; taking a look at the artwork. Youguys should also do a feature on the artwork of Strongarm-records, they had that same person at least on the first record and at the "Division"-seven inch. I kinda dig his style. I think I will go and google more info on the fella.
as did Ownfight "Punto De No Retorno" (2000) - amazing Spanish HC band
