Faucet Face Tap Water Bottles
Faucet Face aims to counter the flashy and insidious marketing of bottled water companies with stylish, reusable water bottles featuring designs by artists and illustrators. I’m not sure I’d pay $15 for a glass bottle when I can just as easily use old jars and yogurt bottles, but 5 percent of the proceeds go to charity: water, and the bottle designs may be worth the price tag for a lot of people.

I think these are terrific and would consider buying one for each of my kids.

The rough and frantic style of French graphic novelist Antoine Dode gives his panels an expressive and interestingly textured feel. Can’t wait to read hard copies of his work.
Sometimes people just take things a bit too far. That may be the case with David Schwen and his fabulously ridiculous What The Fork artwork. Eknife of that.

Killola is three boys and one girl, making rock music out of Los Angeles, California. The band’s style of garage pop (often described as ‘Blondie for the 21st Century’) has received more than 1.5 million MySpace plays from over 80,000 friends, many of whom add the band’s ‘K))’ symbol to their screen names as a show of allegiance. The band recently self-booked its own UK tour — 12 shows in 12 days — and American Tour — 27 shows in 32 days. Oh, and their latest album is available for free download. Viva la independence!

Yes, Karen O wears it. And we don’t blame her. Launched by make-up artist, Mike Potter, Knock Out Cosmetics nail polish is a little Victorian, a touch art deco, and a lot of rock n’ roll.
