Taxidermy Delights
For a good dose of morbid beauty it’s hard to go past artist-slash-taxidermist, Polly Morgan’s work. Each of her still life pieces are hauntingly delicate and dead clever, really.

To celebrate Coca-Cola’s 125th anniversary, designer Peter Gregson created a range of collectible cans. Inspired by the the brand’s heritage and advertising from the 1930′s and 40′s, Gregson’s makeover is at once completely new, yet also reflecting Coke’s longevity. Now, I’ll drink to that. Read more

Named after the first openly gay politician in US history, Harvey Milk make some rather testosterone-heavy tunes. While appealing mostly to the stoner-rock and indie-metal set, the quintet from Athens, Georgia, aren’t afraid of a little melody, as the almost pop track Motown on their latest album, Life … the Best Game in Town, proves. But more often than not, the band gets down and dirty with some knuckle-dragging sludge rock. Amid the haze of searing guitar squeals, menacing power chords, and seismic bass rumbling, though, are some almost math-rock flourishes that hint at the brains behind the brawn.
