NSFW. 14mins.

If it hasn’t happened already, prepare to have the final nail hammered into the coffin of your childhood. This has a lot of NSFW language in it, but believe me it is worth every damn second.

A bit of a change in topic compared to my usual fare, but I thought that this was interesting enough to warrant it. While this is a post about Australian politics I will attempt to keep my personal bias as far removed as possible. For the benefit of non-Australians, the Australian Liberal Party is comparable [...]

The Sydney Morning Herald has an excellent summation of the events that have lead to the current situation. Quote of the article is:
Asked a few days before the opening if a new media frenzy was boiling up about the sexualisation of children, Henson told the Herald “there is always something being boiled up. George [...]

The Gruen Transfer is a new show on the ABC hosted by Wil Anderson. You can watch it over the net at the show’s homepage
I’ve just streamed it to my computer to view it (apparently downloads aren’t allowed outside of Australia), and I thought it was pretty good. It’s a change of pace from Wil [...]

A trip down memory lane. Recovery was the greatest. Although looking back, I think I listened to a lot of crap (excuse of youth notwithstanding)……
Dandy Warhols - Boys Better

Eskimo Joe - Sweater
The Living End - Tainted Love
Magic Dirt - What Have I Done?
Sonic Youth Interview
Deftones Interview
Jane Gazzo was so cool.

ummmm…. really? [...]

Mid 80’s Australian awesomeness. The blacksmith aprons, animated blood spatters on the camera, the hick men and the short haired women, the constant flashing of the band name, all types of wrong make me love it all the more.

Love this clip.

Happy Oz day people. God I miss that place. I’m sitting here with some fellow aussies, knocking back a few and listening to Triple J. Have a good one.

I’m annoyed I’m missing the election coverage. However this brings me right back into it. Anyone have any idea where it’s from? It’s not the Chaser boys I don’t think.

This was their first stunt, before APEC had gotten underway:

This is the preview footage before the stunt hits television on the 12th:

As reported by ABC:

Ten Morning News

And Today Tonight, sometimes more (unintentionally) satirical than the Chaser itself.

The Beastie Boys video for their latest single “The Rat Cage” was filmed in Melbourne? How do I know? Watch it and see. The NYC boys have some iconic Ostrayan symbols throughout the video clip.

A little while ago I was on the bus going past the construction sites in the city and I took the pics below. The tree at the top of this building site made me laugh uncontrollably. If I was in charge of a crane I’d be doing stuff like this all the time but apparently [...]

How’s tagging a whole building, from miles away? Graffiti Research Lab pull it off. Check out the rest of their site too, they have some amazing work.
Found a site dedicated to one of the Sharpie gangs in Melbourne’s colourful past. The Blackburn South Sharps.
The work of Zach Johnsen featured below, just because.
