Pulp Art Book

Pulp Art Book

Thursday, 30. September 2010

Seemingly, a life time ago, I conducted an interview with Neil Krug & Joni Harbeck on the old version on Black Lodges about their ongoing work for the Pulp Art Book. In the meantime, pretty much every tumblr blog and everyone in between has re-posted leaked images from their work. ...

Nick Cave Video Interview

Nick Cave Video Interview

Thursday, 30. September 2010

Occasionally, the archaic NME does do something of interest and this is one of these times. It's a great video interview with Nick Cave and The Grinderman which really just cements the fact that alongside Tom Waits and maybe even Mark Lanegan and Greg Dulli, he is at the forefront ...

Boris Vallejo & Julie Bell

Boris Vallejo & Julie Bell

Thursday, 30. September 2010

Everyone knows I am a big Frank Frazetta fan and being the age that I am, it strikes me as almost normal to be so. If Frank Frazetta is the king of fantasy art, then Boris Vallejo is the crown prince. Since the late 60’s, Vallejo has not only painted ...

Maiden Noir Membership Tee

Thursday, 30. September 2010

We have covered Maiden Noir on here several times in the past and since their new collection is starting to become available around the world, it looks as if that is not going to change anytime soon. Any why should it, seeing that season after season they bring out gear ...

Rig Out 3

Rig Out 3

Wednesday, 29. September 2010

Rig Out, the in-house magazine put together by our very own Glenn Kitson and kindly published by Oi Polloi is hitting the shelves these days. It's a very noble and good notion for a specialist store such as Oi Polloi to do publish a magazine, not unheard of in the ...

Dylan Gold Wasted #2

Dylan Gold Wasted #2

Wednesday, 29. September 2010

Dylan Gold is a furniture designer based in the US - and despite the descriptive name of this table, don't let it fool you. The discarded industrial materials that make up this series of tables are far from wasted. Various wood scraps, off-cuts and excess supply from local shops are ...

Champion Tee – BYU

Champion Tee – BYU

Wednesday, 29. September 2010

With all the recent online ramblings of how great Champion are- I do still question that fact- here comes an interesting piece from the good chaps at Superdenim. Incredible quality tee made in the USA by Champion specifically for McCoys, to their exacting standards. Made from a signature heavy weight ...

Engineered Garments Herringbone Irving Jacket

Engineered Garments Herringbone Irving Jacket

Wednesday, 29. September 2010

Since we are all well and truly in Fall at this point, at least here in Hamburg, Jackets are going to be a top priority these days. Not that I don't have enough but you know how it is. The Irving jacket  by Engineered Garments is a nice addition to ...

With much thanks to our Editor Nick, here is a fantastic piece of furniture from Fox Brothers in New Jersey. Having been in business making stellar furniture for over 25 years it comes as no surprise that this desk ticks off all the right boxes. Made out of Swiss Pear ...

The Whitman Herringbone Ludlow Sportcoat

The Whitman Herringbone Ludlow Sportcoat

Tuesday, 28. September 2010

Personally, I am not at the point in my sartorial life where I tuck in my shirts and wear a sportcoat, I am sure I will be at some point but I cannot deny the fact that I like the look of this jacket. That's the thing with fashion in ...

Interview With Aaron Horkey

Interview With Aaron Horkey

Tuesday, 28. September 2010

Aaron Horkey has quickly established himself as one of my favourite artists whose work I like having at home. I always have to distinguish between being able to appreciate an artist and his/her work and actually wanting to have their work in my home. Which is most definitely the case ...

Nom De Guerre Shawl Collar

Nom De Guerre Shawl Collar

Tuesday, 28. September 2010

Remember around 4-5 years ago when Nom De Guerre was on everyone's lips as the hot new thing but nobody really knew what their clothing looked like? That certainly was the case over here, everyone talked about it but ironically, no one really had a clue. It's really pleasant to ...
