Bloody Noses and Party Tips: My Designs Explained

· Style & Merch

Every Andrew W.K. design in our store comes from my world: the albums, the songs, the party tips and a lot of jokes. Here is what is on them, and why.

Why is there a bloody nose on everything?

Because of I Get Wet. The cover of my 2001 debut shows me with blood running from my nose, and it became my signature. You will find it on our Bloody Nose Portrait, the Cartoon Bloody Nose, the U.S. Department of Partying seal and the minimal Blood Drip Logo, where a red drip cuts through the name.

What about PARTY HARD?

"Party Hard" was the first single from I Get Wet, and it shows up in several forms:

  • Party Hard Cartoon: a thumbs-up cartoon me with a speech bubble.
  • Hello Party Kitty: a famous cartoon cat with a nosebleed.
  • Party Hard Pony: a pink pony, a nod to my 2012 talk "How to Party like Pinkie Pie" at a My Little Pony fan convention.
  • The Party Shades: a glam pop-album close-up with PARTY | HARD underneath.

Which designs come from the albums?

The God Is Partying Zombie takes the title of my 2021 album and gives it a horror-movie skull. The Keyboard Lightning design shows me between two towering keyboard rigs, a nod to the piano I've played since I was four.

And the funny ones?

  • Party Tip: my PARTY TIP format, with one tip: listen to Andrew W.K.
  • What Is Partying: a cartoon face on the front, and a phone chat answered in emoji on the back.
  • Evolution of Partying: from ape to rock-star jump.
  • Pizza Surfer and Taco Guitar: two party foods, two very silly ideas.
