Do you (a) stab the kid in the chest, bruv (b) not stab him, innit.

This ‘choose your own adventure game’ is a new initiative by the UK government to try and stop people stabbing each other. It’s all kinds of messed up. Obviously, we stabbed everyone and have now gone to jail for murder. See how you go…

knife fight!

Wu Tang Clan – St Ides commercial

Back in the early ’90s, before they were proper huge, Wu Tang Clan were given a sizeable sum of cash to record a song promoting St Ides malt Liquor. The end result was so incredibly powerful and ghetto, even the dodgy folks at St Ides burried it from the public. To this day, it remains the greatest endoresment song in the history of the world. It’s also a million times better than anything the Wu have recorded as a group for the last ten years.

Oh, and if it sounds kinda familiar, it was the backing track used at the start of Spot Rusherz on Raekwon’s Only Built for Cuban Linx.

When Japanese bands fall apart (live on stage)

Articles | 23-08-2009

A couple of years back we held a launch party for Team Evil #3 at the Press Club in Brisbane. Two awesome things happened that night. 1. Wolf Panda made their debut and got into a fight in the middle of their live set. 2. Japan’s Limited Express (Has Gone?) were in town, knew one of our friends, and asked if they could play a show just for the hell of it. We said sure, and then had our minds blown as Yukari and band tore the stage apart with feedback, screaming vocals, equipment smashing and Japanese girl standing on drum kit radness.

We totally forgot about it until about five minutes ago when we found this videoclip on Youtube. If you ever get the chance, make sure you see them live. Meanwhile, you can listen to more here.

Here’s a tip, if you’re an artist / illustrator / sculptor / whatever, and you want get your name out there, simply use old videogames and cult movies as your inspiration. Gallery 1988 will love you and people in their 20s/30s with disposable income will happily cough up the cash to buy your work. It’s basically fool proof. On that note, here’s some work from Adam Shub.
