GG Allin: the new single from Toronto rapper D-Sisive
by
Toronto rapper D-Sisive is a don. This guy does not do ‘rap’ in the traditional sense, although he has been one of the best artists in the genre for the last three or so years. His new album, Run with the Creeps, is out now and his first visual for the project, GG Allin, does not disappoint. Limping along the railroad tracks, looking like he just had the living crap beat out of him, D brings GG Allin’s on stage insanity to rap for four and half minutes. This is awesome.

Adam Hilborn draws rapper Pharaohe Monche
Adam Hilborn has worked with everyone from Complex Magazine to Nike over the last few years. Browsing his newly updated site, we came across the best illustration ever to be seen of the rapper/singer Pharaohe Monche. He did it for an editorial for Pound Magazine. To be able to capture this much texture in a line drawing is incredibly hard. The way Pharaohe’s hair looks, even on his face, individual strands curve together to capture his goatee and eyebrows perfectly, while thicker short strokes create the trimmed looking moustache.
Shooting Donald: a documentary about drugs and gangs
Ben Young, the man behind Greenwood Yard, has been busy. He is one of the most creative people we have ever had the privilege to share a pitcher of PBR with. He’s recently been releasing video content like wildfire through his site and this particular piece stuck pretty heavy. Read more
Metsa Design’s Concrete Pearl Earrings
So we recently checked out a pop-up shop for Metsa Design’s new Winter Line. As a general rule, I’m a fan of the stuff they are producing, but these Concrete Pearl earrings caught my eye for a long while. Brainchild Marcus Uran has been a long time friend, but from his humble albeit inspired beginnings, it’s great to see the line develop into something this grandiose.

I originally caught wind of these photos on amazing artist/designer Scott Hansen’s blog. These photos, taken by Danny Lyon in Brooklyn in 1974, have such a gritty, yet nostalgic feel to them. As a native New Yorker, any New York history pieces leave me curious. Great finds. [Musician Outasight is writing guest posts for Lost at E Minor] Read more

Whenever I begin to take life too seriously, I head over to Indexed for a little humor treat. Never have math, formulas and graphs been so clever and witty. The creator of the site started it as a way to make fun of some things, sense of others. Somehow her little formula worked. She is now listed in TIME Magazine’s Top Blogs of 2008. And now Jessica Hagy is a published author. Enjoy exploring the inner-workings of her mind. It is simply delightful.
I almost forgot — metal is really about being drunk, pissed, offensive, and satanic. I have Bestial Mockery to thank for this. Their no-frills black thrash is barebones and snarling without being too dead-pan serious. These guys from Sweden are clearly having a blast worshiping the Dark One in the tradition of old-school bands like Venom, early Bathory, and Sodom. Nothing too original here, but it’s fun as hell.
Owning clusters of diamonds and a miniature dog named Tinkerbell sounds appealing, but one’s unaffordable and the other will do its business inside your vintage handbag. The Socialite is house-trained, stylish and custom-designed to block out the sounds of chasing paparazzi and teen boy band members.
