In The Surfside Eclipse.

Today I stumbled across these killer Surf covers of some scandinavian black metal tunes. It helps to know the originals obviously but they might work for you anyway if not. I posted more on the Fog site if you take a liking...

The Text that goes with each on Youtube is just as good. I mega-LOL'd at some of the names added to the band members' names - Chip Ihsahn, Charlie "Varg" Vikernes and the explanation that Beherit is the Syriac word for surfing.

I fell from the sky.

Thanks to Gav I got to fulfill a childhood dream and see The Cult. Fuck knows why I never got around to it before, I've always been pretty much obsessed with the Electric album. It's one of a few (ok, several - I'm a fucking nerd) albums that I own on vinyl, cassette and CD and I remember getting ready to go out drinking once and putting it on after I'd showered. I air-guitar'd so hard in front of the mirror for the whole thing that I had to get re-showered before I hit the pub.

Anyway, we sat through what seemed like hours of new material (and by that I mean anything after Sonic Temple) to get to the classics. It was worth it though...



And they finished with this - the best of the best...



Babybabybabybabybabybabybabybabybabybabybaby!!!!

Drink from the chalice.

Typical recent Tuesday Crue scene. Look how much of the ground is dry! Fuuuuuck!!!


Oooooh... get her!



When will this fucking weather give in?

So I can unleash my inner Castrucci.

Seeeeagulls!

Jason Diiiill!

(Remember that Quartersnacks Mindfield re-edit? No? Oh well.)

Johnny Rad.

Never been a fan as such but this photo is too rad to not be nicked from Chrome Ball.

Red eye beast... Rise.

  
My xmas presents from Rach finally arrived. She picked them out herself.

Possibly the greatest black metal album ever in an amazing re-release. Stoked.


And the third Sadomator LP, I now have all three. Now I can summon the goat.

Oh and the back cover has the best band photo ever.

Me and Sonny in our crib.

The fam.




I'm always down the graveyard aren't I?

Austyn Gillette is the best skateboarder in the world.

Well fuck me running! I said he was good before right? I didn't actually mean THIS good!

Roam around roam around.

This blog post will cheer you up no end if you're old and crabby like me...

Download the playlist and mumble along to the old classics. I always wanted that Brian Lotti tune from Planet Earth at the time as I thought it was what skaters were supposed to listen to - now it's not really my kind of music. Ah well. I still know the words though.
