Unfortunatly for everyone the designer who made these sucks ass and prefers to keep them for himself as an art piece or they would have been relased to us years ago. Daryl van Wouw you are a mean mean hurtful genius.

on an additional note the grey ones are the only good ones if you look up the full collection (google: Daryl van Wouw’s Converse Extension 1) they are all fugly and tacky accept the grey ones.

Concept albums have always been a hit or miss affair, all too often to be taken with a pinch of salt. Some work brilliantly; many fall flat on their esoteric face. Dr John’s response to Hurricane Katrina is an intriguing album. Some is rousing, some depressing: it’s littered with political statements, perhaps too much at times but given it’s purpose the over-saturation isn’t surprising. Read more
