Hold Your Horses bow down to art history
by 
|Produced by L’Ogre, in the finest tradition of an Ok Go! video, this brilliant music clip for the song 70 Million by the Franco-American band, Hold Your Horses is about as clever as you’ll see, with the various band members reconstructing famous paintings in a healthy dip to those errant days of art history.

Banksy has struck again, this time offending the Catholic Church with a bold artwork that critiques their stance on ongoing child abuse scandals.

Tattoo artist sued by ex-girlfriend for obscene design
Oh boy, this is so bizarre it could only be true. Apparently a Dayton, Ohio, tattoo artist has been slapped with a $100,000 lawsuit by his ex-girlfriend for tattooing an image of, erm, excrement with flies on her back rather than the scene from Narnia that she had requested.
