Brazilian graphic designer and illustrator Butcher Billy got the idea of turning famous love songs into book covers of horror master Stephen King. Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart,” The Smiths, “Head Over Heels” by Tears For Fears, and many other famous songs were portrayed in a very unusual way.
“This series imagines an alternate universe where some of the most desperate and tragic romantic songs in the ’70s and ’80s are actually horror books written by Stephen King. The concept is to look at the dark side of love by the vision of pop culture, bringing aspects of its classic stories to play the true meaning of the songs – this can be completely subverted or stressed strangeness while paying tribute to the vintage book cover designs of the original horror stories,” Butcher writes on his Behance.
