1. Kill a few flies.

2. Put them in the sun to dry for one hour.

3. Once they are dry, pick a pencil and paper… Let your imagination flow.

Here are a few examples…

Make A Decision

run while you can.
forget your work.
learn to live.
fall to your knees.
forget your love.
let it fade away.

Bodies Of Work

As a lover of body art, I’ve come across many photographers and many, many photos on the subject throughout my life time. Not hing so far has come close to the work of U.S photographer Brian Cummings. His 5 part series entitled ‘Bodies Of Art‘ showcasing tattoo artists and their clients, is simply stunning. The way he captures the beauty of the artists work in his own is just fantastic.

You can check them and his other work out here.

Each image is available for purchase as a stretched canvas print. Average size is 22″x34″ (special order sizes are available).

Hate Everyone

Say Anything have been busy lately with the recording of their latest self titled album, which is set to be released on October 13 2009.

The band have released the video for the track ‘Hate Everyone‘ which is pretty simply, a catchy pop punk song about things they hate. Check out the clip on myspace here, or the audio track here.

Max Bemis also played ‘Crush’d‘ along with some other tracks from previous albums for Spin recently. It seems as though Bemis is breaking away from all the angry songs about heartbreak and revenge, having married Sherri DuPree of the band Eisley in early April this year.

Mysterious Letters

In April 2009, Lenka Clayton and Michael Crowe sent personal hand written letters to each of the 467 households in the small Irish village of Cushendall, in hope they would provoke neighbourhood discussion.

Ignorance.

This is set to be the first single off Paramore‘s new album Brand New Eyes.

I’m highly impressed with this release, it possesses a darker, more grown up feeling than their previous albums. Hayley’s vocals never fail to disappoint, sounding flawless once again on this track.

There’s a lot of messages in this song and film clip, but the one that stands out to me the most is never piss Hayley Williams off.

Check it out here.

We’ll Say Anything.

It’s almost cruel the way things keep going around in circles. Things looking up, looking fantastic… Then something happens and it brings everything crashing right back down. Positive post, huh? But it’s true. It’s such an effort to try and push things in the right direction, they could at least stay there.

This pretty much sums it up – Has been the theme song to my life for quite some time really..

“For one moment i can see clearly, the weight of the world don’t seem so bad … Then i find myself here right back where i started from again”

Life is so boring lately – There’s nothing happening, nothing to do, nothing, boring.

I want to live life on the open road, please.
