WORSE HABITS


regarding my lack of posts: i've been working very very hard on getting my portfolio site up and running. but with trying to balance that on top of all the design work i've been doing, my new promotion at my day job, still putting in work with shooting photos and making zines, the new youthanized collection and culture abuse, it has sadly taken a back seat. i work on it as much as possible, but lately it's been a here and there when i have free time idea. my goal is to have it ready for the new year. most, if not all, of my photos and design work from 2013 will be spotlighted. i will be dropping new tees, as well as, a new accessories line when the new site launches. till then, stay high.

SPREAD APART

CULTURE ABUSE has made our first shirts. if you came to our first show at bottom of the hill back in june, then you had the opportunity to grab one of the first runs of these. the logo was transferred to the various black shirts using bleach and a stencil. each shirt was different, and unique in it's own right. we've been working on more, and we may have some available to purchase soon. check out the shirts below, photos by david kelling


OVERDOSE ME

BLEAK by JOHN JR AVAILABLE JULY 29 2013.
comes with an assortment of stickers, prints, pins & posters. 80+ pages, photographs from the last year. pretty much the sequel to KILLING MYSELF FOR FUN. if you dug that, you'll love this!

HIGH ENOUGH

i did the artwork for luau's cassette ep titled "overage & underwhelmed". they recorded these songs over a year ago and i've loved them just as much now, as i did when i first heard them. this week, they posted the entire cassette up on bandcamp. check it out if you dig poppy jams sorta like hot snakes or jimmy eat world.

VIBE KINGDOM

i designed this flyer for the next CULTURE ABUSE show that's happening in september at submission in san francisco. it's our buddies from know secrets (members of static thought & punch) ep release show. we're also playing with the videos (members of ceremony & gather) & holy fever (members of suicide file & give up the ghost). it's gonna be a sweet party. and also, the first 30 people who pay to get into the show will receive a free silk screen poster for the show! so tight!

FUCK IT

i've got a photo in this issue of F.U.C.K. I.T. #2 by the blood of the young crew. a really strong line up of homies and inspirations. these zine will definitely not dissapoint! if you're a fan of debauchery, nudity, skateboarding, graffiti, all that good shit, then show some support and pick up a copy. these dudes got rent to pay!

OVERDOSE


back in april, me and a few buddies began writing some songs together. those buddies being the almighty ian anderson (harsh vibes art, dead to me, strike anywhere), david kelling (all teeth fame) & pretty tony lasalle (strike to survive). since then, we've put together a handful of songs that we're super hyped on and recruited a bassist that can only go by the name of shambles. we're called CULTURE ABUSE and we're playing our first show this friday at bottom of the hill in san francisco, and we're playing alongside creative adult & the new trust. this show is also to celebrate the release of the new trust's new record "keep dreaming". i'm super stoked for everyone to hear us and we're gonna have a grip of handmade merch available. we're recording on saturday with our friend scott up in santa rosa. check out http://party-dudes.com for any updates on culture abuse. and also check out the flyer i designed (below) for our first show this friday.

HACK

this is tonight. some great friends of mine are performing for the last time. these dudes kidnapped me from boston and moved me to california so we could be friends. i owe these dudes so much for helping me out through bad times and even more good times. i loved traveling with them when i got the chance and it was awesome to play shows with them on our first tours in 2005. it's gonna be fucking crazy. see you there. check out the comadre blog, they just posted some photos from their last practice that the homie kyle cam took.

NIGHT TIMES

i've got some photos in the new issue of arthur bueno's blogzine titled "i can only remember everything in the dark." lots of really great artists involved in this zine, some of whom are homies and you should know and love by now. you can view the zine online for free over at issuu. it's a complete honor to be asked to show work in a zine run by arthur bueno, that dude is such a talented photographer, it's crazy to me that he likes my photos. you should check out some of arthur's photography work, cause dudes got skills.

WILDLIFE


i designed a shirt for my buddies in la dispute a little while ago, and they're now available in their online shop! the design contains lyrics from one of their songs called "a poem" from their last lp wildlife. so support these dudes cause they just finished writing a new lp coming out this fall/winter. it's gonna be a banger!

I LOVE MY PROBLEMS

here's a new shirt i designed for the homies in dead to me. they had them made for their shows in montreal this past may and they have a few extras. i'm told they'll be available online soon. i'll keep you updated on when that happens.
