TRWG! (pronounced troog) is the newest limited edition vinyl figure by artist Pete
Fowler. Fowler is a Welsh artist best known for his artwork for the Welsh band Super Furry Animals. He is a freelance illustrator and “monster creator” whose inspiration is drawn from Japanese art. For TRWG!, Shipping begins in November 2006 and will be available in the same month with a retail price of $59.99. For more info on this vinyl figure please go here.
TRWG is a walking, talking encyclopedia of the unique musical styles found on Monsterism Island. Bred and schooled on a commune in the hills, he now writes his own music fanzine (titled It’s Fragly!) and is always found in front at local gigs. He’s the first to know about the new local bands, where they are playing and what they eat for lunch.
