I have always had a thing for beautiful collage art. I just like how two or more different motifs can form together something completely new that stands for itself. CARO.MA seems to be an expert in fusing interesting different elements – her tumblr at least indicates so as it is full of little treasures. I am very tempted to buy all of her postcards and plaster my kitchen with them. Read more

September 7, 2011 | New Music | There's video in this post. by Ben Sollee |

I’m excited to have the band Thousands joining me for some upcoming touring. I’m a new fan of their music. I like its humanity and exposed feeling. It’s like a box of old photographs. And this video is the collage they made from them.

Goof Button is a collage artist whose work I was introduced to by I Want You Magazine. I think we can all agree that psychedelic collage is something of an oversaturated market at the moment, but to my mind Goof Button is king of the genre, combining subversive eroticism with a sharp aesthetic.

It’s always a joy to see Andy Pott’s work in my feedreader, and it’s always there! He is one of the hardest working illustrators around, and it shows. There’s so much to see in every beautifully-constructed image, not least the colour. I just find his art stunning. Read more

I remember seeing some of Rebecca Fin Simonetti’s paintings in a friend’s room a few weeks ago and thinking they were really amazing. I was really glad someone was doing straight-up portraiture. Read more

Oh boy, this is fun. Omaha’s Tilly and the Wall are kitsch-cool-camp-vauderville meets pop-folk-flamenco, with a tap dancer for a drummer and some serious, serious charisma for a calling card.

Melbourne’s Alice Euphemia has been a swinging shrine to Australian independent fashion for a decade now, hosting some of our favourites including Romance Was Born and TV amongst countless others. The success continues, with Alice Euphemia having opened a second store in 2007 in the old Craft Victoria building on Gertrude Street in Fitzroy, Melbourne. 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.

The nice thing about black metal is that it’s so hard for it to be co-opted. Between its often extreme ideologies and its inherently abrasive sound, it’s hard to imagine anyone trying to sell you a pair of sneakers with it. Even as some bands like Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth have wormed their way into the mainstream, the vast majority of black metal fans and bands out there are happy to stay in the filthy pits of the underground.
