FIDLAR

FIDLAR which is short for FuckItDogLifesARisk, is a local LosAngeles band which totally kicks asssss$! Their live performances are always loads of fun, they’re raw piercing lyrics & beats give you the energy and strength to join in mosh pits, crowd surf & get sweaty with the crowd. I first saw them live last year out in Oakland where they opened up for Coach Whips, this Tuesday they dropped their self titled full album, which is mixture of amazing punkrock tunes, they’re talent will sure take them far, so check them out here if you haven't yet!

Recently I re-heard this lovely tune when I attended my friends rock n roll history class...funny how John wrote the lyrics to confuse critics/people.

John Kilar’s photography beautifully depicts the rawness that life brings from our human existence.

My friend Kat has mad skills with pencil & paper, she’s always possessed great artistic talent. I say she becomes an artist and with my arthistory knowledge i’ll become her artdealer. Check out more of her creations at her site, she’s drawing/sketching something new every day of 2013!

Murphy is one of my dearest and most beloved friends, we had a picnic date this past week, where we took a few photos. Somedays I wish I really did have pink hair.  

66

years ago was the birth of one magnificent being, the great David Bowie who's served as a muse to countless souls and will continue to inspire many more to come. More excitingly he’s announced the release of a new album and this beautiful new track.

Godfather of British pop art, Peter Blake’s work is as great as pop art gets.

Jeffertitti's Nile 'Midnite Siren' @ the Satellite, December 27th, 2012 from Bokeh Monster on Vimeo.
Living in the Los Angeles area is a blessing, despite the pollution & terrible traffic. A musical blessing to the fact that there are so many amazing local artist, practically any giving night you can find great musical acts, either it be at the echo, the smell, pehrspace, lot1, the satellite, etc. The best nights for me are when I attend a random show and unexpectedly witnessing a mind blowing performance. This was the case last Thursday when I first saw Jeffertitti’s Nile  live! I highly recommend you check this video and head over to their bandcamp for more amazing tunes, they're music just takes you farrrrr farrr awayyyy to a better place.
