Multi media artist Cal has now completed a massive mural of Ned's Atomic Dustbin on the wall of a row of shops on Hagley Road, just off the town's ring road.

It is the third in a series which has seen Pop Will Eat Itself and The Wonder Stuff also become the subject of Cal's work -  two murals related to the bands are within a stones throw of each other, and just yards from the latest one.

All three bands have roots in Stourbridge and the Black Country and collectively charted 29 times in the UK top 40, earning cult followings in the 90s,

But looking to the future, now Cal is painting a design for up and coming duo Gans, who have  recently signed to Pete Doherty's record label and are currently playing nationwide to sell out audiences
