Hughes designed covers for all of KMFDM's albums except one or two, and the videos for ‘A Drug Against War’ and ‘Son of a Gun’ are animated versions of his artwork.

What a set of covers! Thanks for bringing it to my attention, amazing art!
Yeah, it's very striking. He's obviously influenced by comic books, propaganda posters and also 'hardboiled' pulp literature. 'BRUTE!' was originally the name of a pulp magazine that Hughes published in the eighties. He also does advertising, posters, and murals. And sometimes random portraits like those of Milan Fras from Laibach, or Walter White.
