HOW ABOUT COOP AND MTV?

You’ve seen the ads in Rolling Stone and the heavy rotation on MTV!

And if you live in a major US city you’ve seen the posters up all over town!

Coop has finally consented to allow one of his saucy Devil Girls to grace an MTV product, and that product is Roadrunner Records’ THE RETURN OF THE ROCK.

This compilation has 19 cuts, 5 previously unreleased, and features contemporary troubadours KID ROCK, KORN, SLIPKNOT, MACHINE HEAD, COAL CHAMBER—well, you get the picture. There’s fourteen more.

And in case you don’t, here’s the cover of the cd:

Buy ’em where you would buy any other fine music product!

Yes, it’s been almost a year in the making, but now it’s here!

Coop has been breaking his back (and losing a good portion of his eyesight) to bring you inkslingers (and them what loves them) this awesome set of COOP TATTOO FLASH.

And it’s the real deal—set contains 22 flash sheets and more than 50 images, both full color AND black and white stencil art, each lovingly drawn by Coop and rendered specifically for use in tattooing. The package is 11 x 14 inches, features full-color COOP art, and also contains a full-color COOP POSTER!

Holy Crap Are We KIDDING? No!

Of course, you don’t have to be licensed to own a set, and heck, you don’t even have to get a tattoo! We think this is pretty snazzy though and would recommend you buy ’em because, like all things Coop, they are in a limited edition.

The edition will be 5000 units (many of which have already been pre-sold) and when they’re gone, baby they are GONE—NO REPRINTS will be authorized!
