King Geedorah - Take me to your leader

Take me to your leader by King Geedorah (Daniel Dumile), was an album I already had in my possessions but only digitally. So last week, I went ahead and bought a physical copy off of amazon.

The album is art. An insane collages of rhyming narratives, accompanied by dope instrumentals, all along keeping up with the constant Toho Monster theme.


This was really the first Dumile's album I've ever heard and it really changed my opinion of Hip Hop. Mind you now, Crime Mob was very popular when I first heard this, so yeah...

Commodore Brand Clothing Co.



Last night, I was up like a madman, toiling away in my secret hideout, trying to asses a problem of great magnitude. "What the hell should I waste my money on tonight?!" A normal person might see this as very feeble and trivial problem, but surfing the web you see that things are on repeat. Nothing is original.

Regardless of my complaints, I came a cross a very interesting online store called Commodore Brand Clothing Co., and it aint too shabby.

Zblu Cops


Even in this time of great economic distress, I try and find ways to waste money. So this week I bought some figures from myplasticheart. I coped a few Mark Nagata toys and a Mini Gobi by Gobi x Frank Kozik.
After I made my purchase, I googled french comic book artist Gobi and came across a promotional video for his comic book series, Zblu Cops: Turbo Justice!, which is a joint effort with artist Bill Otomo.


Its as if Hiroyuki Imaishi inhaled Viewtiful Joe and this is the exhaled residue...

Red Bull Music Academy: DOOM


Nothing really has to be said about this. Just watch and let it marinate for an hour and forty minutes or so...

Stickers: From Punk Rock to Contemporary Art

This is a book I planned on buying sometime back but I just didn't have to shillings to waste on it. I was hopping to get the hardcover Deluxe edition for $250, but I settled for the $24 paperback like chump...
Stickers: From Punk Rock to Contemporary Art, is basically an overview of stickers bombing and how effective it was as a medium, for not only shaping our current graffiti subculture but in promoting music, fashion and skateboarding as well.

The book is pretty dope, no lie! It features over 4,000 stickers, along with some awesome chit-chat from photographer Martha Cooper, writer/cartoonist John Holmstrom, skateboarder/founder of Zoo York Eli Morgan Gessner, and some other cats...

Cop it and learn a thing or two.
