Maxx242 is the working alias of Max Gramajo, a Southern California illustrator, muralist, typographer and toy designer whose gritty yet polished graphics have become staples of rock posters, streetwear and pop-culture collectibles. Born and raised in Riverside, California, Gramajo grew up surrounded by comic books, lowrider art and the coastal graffiti scene; after high school he ditched a string of odd jobs, including garbage collector and repo-house cleaner, to pursue art full time . His breakthrough arrived through the influential apparel collective FM$, where he served as brand manager and lead visual architect, translating tattoo-line intensity and Chicano letterforms into silkscreened shirts that sold out in hours.
Maxx242’s concert posters for Metallica, Avenged Sevenfold, System of a Down and Phish merge skeletal iconography with candy-apple colour fades, often printed with metallic inks that shimmer under stage lights . He treats each commission like a narrative vignette: a skull cradling a rose becomes a meditation on beauty and decay, while a winged reaper hurling lightning bolts channels the adrenaline of live metal. The numeric tag “242” originated in his teenage graffiti crew CIA (Call It Art), a pager code the group used to mark walls and trains; keeping the number is, he says, a vow never to abandon the rebellious spark that sparked his career.
Beyond paper, Maxx242 has produced limited Bearbrick toys and a vinyl figure called The Bandit, expanding his universe into three dimensional collectibles. When not touring with bands or painting murals from Anaheim to Brooklyn, he works out of a sunlit studio packed with vintage horror magazines and spray cans, continually sketching the next image that will plaster both gallery walls and city streets with equal reverence.
