Watch Show Me The Body launch a guerrilla street art crusade
If you see any street art of three coffins in your neighborhood, Show Me The Body are probably to blame.
The band show off the creation of their Dog Whistle album art in the video for “Forks And Knives.”
The band revealed some behind-the-scenes footage of the paint job, as well as a bird’s eye view of the completed project.
Along with the album’s release, Show Me The Body are looking to create an Obey-esque street art campaign. The band shared directions on how to tag the three coffins logo, with a promise of free tickets for artists who spread the word.

The three coffins have already made appearances in Russia, London, Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Kansas City and Paris.
The band dedicated Dog Whistle to “those who are no longer with us,” taking a look at friends they’ve lost along the way.
“It is about coping with the loss of friends, family and mentors while building a new community in their wake,” the band says. “In the midst of losing friends, we strive to create a stronger community dedicated to fight, survive and thrive in their memory and spirit.”
Dog Whistle is available here. The band hit the road tomorrow for a cross-country tour with a multitude of supporting acts. You can grab tickets here, or check out dates below.
