1.) I did an interview for Fecal Face. Very excited about that.
2.) If you want to see the full THE MOST EXPLOSIVE PICTURE OF THE YEAR! solo show that is currently up at The Threadless Gallery then THEN CLICK HERE.
3.) Speaking of the Threadless Empire, there has slowly but surely been a flux of stock for my DECAPITATED DOOMSDAY shirt over at this link here! Act a little sludgier but still swiftish to buy one of these before they go the way of 8-Tracks and my career.
Act fast, swift, prolong not the future of your shirted veneer...because my SUPER limited Threadless Select shirt is online now at THREADLESS.COM! Costly for sure, silly at best, this dauntlessly dipped abomination will only be available for a really limited moment or two.....check the site for the dwindling size numbers & see not only my deshackled freedom from lying, but the images of what true off color cosmetic textile meltdown actually looks like. Every shirt is unique in itŐs neo-died-in-the-wool rubdown, complete with dual sided skull head reflectors for you summertime night bike dreamboats out there in kid land!

Next week on APRIL 4TH, my first solo show is happening in Chicago at the THREADLESS GALLERY (THREADLESS RETAIL STORE). I will post more about it this monumental evhttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifen next week, but in the meantime look at the BONGOUT SHIRT I DID recently and a really frank & LOUDMOUTH INTERVIEW I did a few months ago that I forgot all about. Sometimes you design things you wished you didn't forget, sometimes you say things publicly you wish you could forget forever.
Here is the poster for next weeks triumphant THE MOST EXPLOSIVE PICTURE OF THE YEAR!!!!
On top of DRAW in London, I am also in the RADAR EYES that opens in Chicago tomorrow, Friday March 7th. It is curated by the trusted wackos of Montreal, Seripop, who are pretty much the absolute final word on screenprinting alchemy these days. My piece in the show is YAY GOD. Which you have seen floating around these parts for a bit. If you can't make it to Chicago to purchase this, then go over here or here and order a copy of Apenest from Cody. He is including a very small run of YAY GOD screenprints as a small incentive of buying issue 2 from him directly.
Here is the press release for RADAR EYES.
FRIDAY MARCH 7, 2008 7pm - 1am

RADAR EYES: A SURVEY OF HALLUCINOGENIC PRINTMAKING

Canadian Print duo Seripop (http://www.seripop.com) and Reuben Kincaid ( http://www.reubenkincaid.blogspot.com/ ) are hosting a large group show representing the works of over 40 different experimental printmakers on March 7, 2008. The exhibition contains work sharing a similar aesthetic highlighting the talents of artists and designers making hand drawn, ephemeral work. Many of the prints depict distortions of perception, altered states of awareness and geometric, sometimes hallucinogenic subject matter or compositions.
For a quick look at a few of the hundred or so works on display please visit:

People of the United Kingdom! I am in a group show that opens this Friday, March 7th (and closes March 23rd) at http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif called DRAW. Curated by Erik Foss & Curse Mackey, and featuring rad people like (my trusted friend) Mark McCoy, Chris Johanson, Kerry King (yes....that KK), Maya Hayuk, Clive Barker, Kat Von D & about a bajillion other quality pencil and pen movers. Click here and here to see my two pieces if in fact you are not a London Dungeoner. Below is the show flyer! Awesome!
Last month I did an interview with Tobias at NO PAIN IN POP, a completely rad UK record label that also just happens to throw parties as well. From the looks of their FLICKR page, it is all tidal waves of sweaty youths and neon, which in the context of people on people fun, is great for naked and clothed good times. Click this link here for my interview with Tobias of NO PAIN IN POP, it is actually one of the more no bullshit, truth telling interviews I have given. As a side note, Tobias is an absolutely amazing artist in his own right, and remains one of my favorite picture drawers on that side of the world......for proof ask him how much fan mail it took me for him to write me back. Lots. Like....a whole lot.
After about 8 months of hard work, going back and forth from the Steak Mtn. and Against Me! camps, I finally finished the Against Me! The New Wave Collection. Which for those of you finding out for the first time what that really means.....is that I illustrated and designed a shirt for each of the ten tracks on Against Me!s Sire released LP : New Wave. Eventually you will be able to purchase these all together at Against Me!s Webstore over at the Cinder Block website and also on their upcoming arena tour with the Foo Fighters. That's right.....Foo Fighters. Spooky times are afoot for sure.

Run by two hyper rad design wizards, Will Hudson and Jez Burrows, the wonderfully sentinical UK art/design blog IT'S NICE THAT buckles and bubbles over at least twice daily with tiny, titular songs of praise for whatever said duo can unearth in the giant internet world of artists, designers, musicians, architects, etc. Daily I am being folded back and rebound with the rad stuff/people/things that they get excited enough about to post.
Recently, Steak Mtn. was asked to be a guest author for the whole month of August, basically recreating the tradition of pointing an adjective filled finger in the direction of something/someone that breaks open my brain with their immense amounts of irreverent visual power. And since I consider myself a professional fan above anything else, always geek mailing other artists and designers....daily (some of you may have received a few of these exclamation notes), I jumped at the chance to have a public spot to be loud about the creatives I am totally in love with : some old, some new and some sorely overlooked due to maybe being 16 and not really having a forum or know how to get their stuff in front of viewers.
I cracked the hull today with a wordy post on Brooklyn based painter, Elizabeth Huey & tomorrow I will be talking Gary Panter......so keep your eyes peeled on http://www.itsnicethat.com all month (and after that cause Will & Jez party all the time on that thing) for the 25 or so artists, designers, musicians, architects, etc. that I will be spotlighting in my terribly convoluted...prose (?).....
Shirtkiller is where all the youths are going to pick up the exlusive OCTOSKULL shirt and tote bag. That's right. Tote bag.
If by "soft launch" you mean three pounds of gastrointestinal pleasure, catapulting 8 feet 2 inches, then yes. If by "soft lunch" you mean you took too long between bites of your cereal and it is now soggy, then yes. If by "soft lunge" you mean being cornered by cotton and then toppled on for youthfully tender sex, then yes.
Keep checking back. We will be bringing you more images soon enough. Oh! and welcome to the new Steak Mtn. website, it is going to be a doozy.
