Kaine to take legal action against Qwertee for stealing Waystone album art
Kaine’s album artwork from The Waystone (and t-shirt design) has been used without permission by Qwertee, a mass t-shirt printing company. The company has ripped off the artwork and design for their Waystone Inn shirts and hoodies (seen above).
Qwertee is based at Qwertee, Block 3, Harcourt Road, Dublin, Ireland and their Company Number is 476522. Former lead guitarist Anthony Murch (who performed on The Waystone) brought the image theft to the attention of the band this morning when the product had been advertised to him.
Qwertee artist Noreu is claiming to have designed the artwork on their website. This has come as the new line-up of Kaine looks to celebrate the 5 year anniversary of the album with their own limited edition t-shirt release and EP. – https://kaine-metal.com/2019/06/19/kaine-to-record-the-waystone-e-p/
