Tattoo Age: TV series on the state of tattooing today
by I’m a huge fan of getting tattooed and the tattoo culture. I recently stumbled upon Tattoo Age on VBS.TV, and I’m hooked. The series follows tattoo artists Dan Santoro, Grime, Troy Denning, Mike Rubendall and Freddy Corbin as they discuss their craft and the state of tattooing today. With the watered down tattoo reality shows on television, this series stands above and beyond. Future tattoo artists can learn a lot from these guys.

La Dispute: post-hardcore music at its finest
La Dispute’s newest album Wildlife was released this week and is favorite album of the year. With lines like ‘Can I still get into heaven if I kill myself?’ and themes of murder, schizophrenia and the burial of loved ones, this album is very dark. Between the soft vocals and ghostly screams of Jordan Dreyer, and the musical drive and energy of Brad Vanger Lugt, Chad Sterenburg, Kevin Whittemore and Adam Vass, this is post-hardcore at its finest. The whole album can be streamed in full on their website and purchased on the No Sleep Records website.
