Happy New Year! (thank god thats fucking over with...)

WOOOO! 2008 is winding to a close and thank god! I though this year was gonna kill me! I wont get into for fear of boring you who keep up with this blog but it has been a rough year! As I know it has been for a lot of us! Just think about it, its 43 hours til 2009 and after that, its 1125 days to....2012! Google: 2012!

If you dont know, now you do! Scary

Anywho I hope you all had a merry christmas! I know I did, totally had a nice Christmas story dinner with Q-Man and Retard and then we saw the spirit! It was a lotsa cheese, fell asleep, caught some Z's, boring movie, don't watch it. My pal andreas also sent me some nice goodies! some sweet new NITAD merch, and some tasty sacreligious pins! WWW.KRNM.SE LISTEN TO ME, AND LISTEN TO NITAD, sweetest rawest punk band ive listened to in a long time, with lots of gnarly graphics made by our gnarly swedish friend to accompany their tunes.

This means you! If youre reading this to we need to get crackin on some more html jazz! Im effed when it comes to computers people...tragic...

Gory postcards from a roman crypt that Andreas sent along with his care package, yes, the entire joint is decorated with human remains, not the kind of furnishings we get from ikea is it Andreas? haha.

HAPPY HOLEEDAYEES!

Ugh, I gotta kick my ass into overdrive and so something with myself! no new blogs since halloween!? Thats horse shit! That halloween blog was boring to, no real news! Oh well. lets get on with this! Here we go kids! just in time for the holidays! new villains is online and in stores WWW.WEAREVILLAINS.COM and guess what! theres a funny little design o mine on the crew and tee! Super stoked on how these turned out, my man Jay has been doing better and better for himself because now you can get these fantasticly hip and awesome Villains items at.....

Livestock,Loop, and Boarding Hut! keep homeboy fed and in real gold and buy villains!






Also heres a few tasty visual treats from my dumb ass, Still working on the full new website! still working on the line! So I think this is just to show that I havent been totally lazy with my drawerings!

DEFUNCT! Not as is no longer funky, as in things are fucked!

I really wish this show wasnt canceled! That makes four shows I was in on had the plug pulled and that means I didnt get to make posters or prints for this deal that I whipped up! Fuck beans! Haha not that I gave a shit about Liferuiner honestly, I just wanna create and destroy!





On a positive note about good music now! Anybody hear the new Glassjaw song!? It's an audio easter egg on their website but for the 2 minute drum loop to end and then be prepared to shit your pants..

As pictured below, im havin some halloween funtime with my pal Dylan in my beautiful old 96 Jetta, eatin some treats n such! All is well though, everyone was fine and we even still made it to the show on time! Felt lots of pain the next day, still not sure if it was cuz of the crash or because of the pit...

Halloween gem for ya, to get those bones a rattlin...

THERE IS NO FATHER WITHOUT THE SON

UGH! i just think it's kinda fucked up, if Purolator ships something from Missisauga then why would they take the package back to the Missasauga office instead of leaving it at the office here in town ( I wasn't awake to get the damn door when the Purolator guy came). I just really want my little press set up! Then i can get started on a new little project, underneath is a preview, as well as some new artwork I did for my Kitchener pals in the band Action Potential.





Also, (and this is where I stole the title of this post from!) if you havent heard the new Banner cd yet you probably should go find a copy, I'm not a ferret music whore by any means but its just such a gosh darn good listen! Soooo Brutal

TEASERS FOR UPCOMING PROJECTS

Heres just a better look at the illustration and apparel design for Villains & Co For the Coming weeks, as well as my bands new e.p. I also just recently got a sweet small silk screening set up to just wait for newly screened posters, inserts and limeted edition prints.

VILLAINS CLOTHING LINE

Hey there, just so everyone knows I've been doing some work for VILLAINS & CO, if you're not familiar with V&CO you should be, it's a real sweet clothing line from my good pal Jay Sakuta. The first collaboration of many to come is a small line called "Villans THE NO CLUB ANTI SOCIAL CLUB". Shirts for N.C.A.S.C can be purchased at WWW.WEAREVILLAINS.COM but be aware that these are very limited quantity, shirts will also be for sale at local Anneliese shows (FYI Anneliese is my band! WWW.MYSPACE.COM/ANNELIESETHAT). Ah! how could I forget! Speaking of my shitty, er I mean AWESOME! band, our new e.p. is also available on the Villains site in a C.D. and shirt package deal.










Stay tuned for teasers for the Villains & Co shirts that will be featuring more of my artwork. In the meantime I hope these can hold you over!





note, each one of those damn C.D's is assembled and stenciled and drawn on by hand, by me, this artworks limeted edition of 100.
