Forum online!

The web is really coming together these days... now the forum is up. Join our community and share your thoughts with the rest of the fans...

Graphic style of "Maximum Misery Tour"

For the whole concept and marketing development of the new album, Picnic hired Jesper "JJ" Johansen as Art Director. This includes design of CD-cover, t-shirts, website, posters, musicvideo - anything really. JJ made himself a name with the metalband, "Mercenary", which he did the first two albumcovers for, including the above mentioned items. After that he made a career at LEGO, designing 3D-stuff for some of their concepts, like Bionicle.

For "Maximum Misery Tour" he quickly went for a cartoonish style, implementing it with Picnic's own inputs, creating a playful atmosphere, the very essense of Picnic.

Around the release-date, JJ has promised to publish all his Work-in-progress sketches and involving our fans in the process of designing the album cover for "Maximum Misery Tour"... look forward ot this, friends, it's both fun and exciting, truly rare stuff.

Hello all?

All members of this, our unpredictable ensemble, are currently contemplating how to approach this next period in Picnic history. Many things are being taken into consideration, to bring you - a grand and noble audience - the most uninhibited chapter so far in this prog n´roll fairytale. Hopefully you will see Picnic collaborating - mostly behind the scenes - with friends and neighbours, old and new. But then again, who knows. Anyway, Stay tuned. And have patience with the 'Picnicosaurous'. Jagged teeth could be lurking in the shadows. Year...It´s a vicious circle....you've got it.

NEW ALBUM - "Maximum Misery Tour"

The longawaited album from Picnic is just around the corner, and will be entitled "Maximum Misery Tour" - inspired by the tour of the same name in the 80's where Picnic toured most of Europe.

Enjoy, as non-coke-drinking people tend to say...
