About us
Skateboarding, punk, thrash, grindcore, and Glow in the Dark Monster Model kits: all allies in warping the creative mind of Los Angeles artist Mike Fisher. Operating under the banner of MaximumFluoride for more than a decade Fisher has adorned posters, shirts, stickers, and decks and more with his macabre imaginings. Aside from various windows, poles, and walls, Mike’s work has appeared in the The World Of Board Graphics, The Heavy Metal and Hardcore Graphics, Art of Electric Frankenstein, The Art of Modern Rock,Gigposters Vol:2, and more. Check the metal and punk sections at your local music store or your local Rock Shop and your bound to find releases and apperal bearing his mark.
Hailing from San Jose, California, Fisher became addicted to skating upon receiving his first board at age 10. Soon after he came across his first fateful issue of Thrasher. Flipping through its pages, the bloody visions of Pushead and Marc Rude provided endless fascination. Combined with his burgeoning love of the Hardcore Punk scene, these dark images reawakened his artistic urges.
Fisher’s second pulp epiphany occurred when a friend brought him an early issue of Juxtapoz. Inside he saw a spread for the poster work of Frank Kozik. More than just a gig poster, Fisher saw Kozik’s images as signifying something larger, underground, and dangerous. He wanted in.
Resolved to leave his day job behind, Fisher started MaximumFluoride Killustration and began soliciting bands over the Internet for work. Often sending 60 emails a day to those whose music matched his aesthetic. Slowly but surely, word of Mike’s unique brand of madness spread as he garnered work from labels such as Sony, Relapse, and Metalblade as well as bands including Intronaut, Cattle Decapitation, The Clash, Led Zeppelin, Misfits, and more. A respected artist with an unparalleled drive to succeed, Mike will to continue his graphic aggression for years to come.
After over 15 years of creating art for underground metal... show more and punk bands Mike can honestly lay claim to having worked with almost every band that matters. show more

SanDiego R. asked:I get this question a lot: "Anyone know any good helmet painters/airbrushers??" I would recommend my boy (the best guy in the business) http://www.rekairbrush.com/Nick G. replied:I've hired Maximum Fluoride Killistration on more than one occassion. He is really talented. His name is Mike and he already paints hockey helmets...I don't see why he wouldn't paint other types of helmets. He created the Zombie Squid and the Injured Squid shirts for nosquidding.com https://www.facebook.com/MaximumFluorideKillustration Maximum Fluoride Killustration Destroyer Of Worlds Painter: 1,140 like this
