Teriyaki Boyz feat Kanye West (I Still Love H.E.R.)
Since the new Kanye West album is such a clusterfuck of shit, we decided to go back a few years and showcase this collabo between Japan’s Teriyaki Boyz and Kanye. It’s like the exact opposite of 808s and Heartbreak.
Things to do while in Brisbane over Christmas.
1. Go to a Monster Truck show
2. Buy ironic rubbish from the merchandise stand
3. Maybe write something about it
Yeah, we’re still obsessed with Parker Lewis Can’t Lose. While Corin Nemec (aka Parker) isn’t returning any of our emails, we’ve knocked up a retrospective on the television series for the forthcoming Team Evil #5. We might post it up online before then if we get desperate. Or not.

Street Fighter IV is due out on home consoles February 20. If you can’t wait that long you can blow some cash on the associated ‘action figures’ from Revoltech. They stand 10cm tall, go for about $18 (US) and are pretty win. You can pre-order them shits from your favourite import website.

And the associated merchandise. Or a complete piece of shit…
Two Crows from Tacos (1956 Warner Bros)
They just don’t make cartoons like this anymore… violence, racist Mexican stereotypes, possible drug use. Two Crows from Tacos is an all time classic.

With a new record label (Shogun) and a new album (The Hangover), there’s plenty of stuff to talk to Funkoars about. We decided to ignore all of that and ask them about Pornstars, Rihanna and not being serial rapists instead. Here’s what Trials had to say… Read the rest of this entry »
