This is so insanely stupid / inspired / awesome we don’t even know where to begin. Keyboard cat + Mario Bros + 8 Bit graphics. If we’re not careful the internet might implode in on itself.
Vladamir Vodkashot shares hs thoughts on Macaulay Culkin:
There’s something about the dishevelment and disarray of adult-sized Macaulay Culkin that makes me want to take back everything bad I’ve ever said about him. With his smug sense of satisfaction and those eyes; sunken into his elongated head and mismatched in a way where they can neither agree upon colour or direction, you just know this motherfucker parties with the best of them. He’s basically Robert Downey Jr but without the acting ability. Who can’t picture him snorting a gram of coke from a Manhattan call-girl’s stomach then pulling the Home Alone face before Uncle Bucking her from here to Camp Candy?
So, it’s about 1:36am on Thursday night / Friday morning and NOTHING is happening on the internet. We know, we’ve checked. Everyone is already sick of Michael Jackson tributes and we can’t be bothered uploading that new videoclip from Drake because, frankly, everyone else has already done it…
So, yeah, fuck it, here’s some random art. The first one is from an art launch this week in San Francisco that looks at ‘images from Northern California’. We think it’s exceptionally shit (the image). But kinda charming in it’s crapness. The second thing (below) is a poster for Gallery1988’s latest thing - Crazy 4 Cult. Basically, 50 artists have provided their own take on cult films. We’ll get some proper images sorted when it’s not all late at night and stuff.
Jay Z’s not messing around in the first single from Blueprint 3. Aside from snuffing out autotune, the videoclip sees him chauffeured around by Lyor Cohen, playing cards with Harvey Keitel and shooting hoops with LeBron James. Which is what you do when you’re Jay Z. Then you go home to Beyonce…
A friend of ours recently schlepped around Europe. While in the Czech Republic he stumbled across the HQ of William Morris - the infamous smoking company. They have a museum on-site dedicated to the awesomeness of smoking and a lot of vintage cigarette packets with INCREDIBLE graphic design. Hit the link to see our www.Lifelounge.com update and the full series of photos.
Let’s celebrate Michael Jackon’s life via the miracle of Moonwalker on Sega’s Megadrive.
This was released back in 1990 and, for the time, was actually pretty decent. Doesn’t look so hot today but the dance moves at 1:57 are not to be scoffed at. Also, Bubbles the chimp makes a cameo.
We get sent a lot of albums at Team Evil HQ. Most of them are shit. Or really mediocre. And to be honest, it’s better to be really shit than mediocre… But that’s a whole separate article / issue.
The point is, we get sent a bunch of albums and sometimes, out of the blue, we get something really incredible that we’re not familiar with. Jeremy Jay’s Slow Dance is one of those albums. We reviewed it a while back and said it was incredible. If you haven’t heard it here’s a little sample. There’s no videoclip or anything, so you’ll just have to look at Jeremy for a bit. Or open another tab. Whatever, we’re not going to tell you how to live.
See that above? That’s a hand stitched Luke Skywalker inside a guttered Tauntaun. We’re a little hazy on the whole Star Wars ‘canon’ but we seem to recall Luke had to gut one of the animals and sleep inside it to survive frostbite in one of the movies - Empire Strikes back? Or maybe we just made that up?
If your brain is about to explode from indignation you’ll be interested to know there’s a thing on in the US called Stitch Wars. Basically, a bunch of people who can stitch have gotten together to make plush Star Wars plush figures. Oh, and you can buy them. Go here to spend money.
