It’s like an acid trip you can read.

 These three dudes know how to lay down the kind of goods stoners, hessians, and burnouts alike can hangout and headbang to.  Miss Potter is a frustrated pro-choice Christian-raised graduate student with a misconceived Impostor Complex.  “Photography is like any art. There are many paths to take, but there is no formula, or ‘right’ way to do it.”  The down side to massive mammaries.  The layers of synth-beats and drum loops were better left in the congo.  The art and design from cover to cover flies off the page, filled with illuminating collages and a gritty eye for detail that would make any Xerox jockey salivate.  Gainesville punks deliver some decent, ear-splitting hardcore.  Cut the top of your head off, and insert vibrating dildos. Yes…this comic has it all.  A sex starlet helps others release their inner adult fantasies and capture them on film.  Four Days Deep has all the trappings of Sentinel’s large, airy sound –an impressive feat for a band with only three members.  No more pencils, no more books, no more teacher’s…secret code?! One instructor looks to take on the NY school system in this eye-opening zine.  Sweet home Alabama my ass (or Courtney Barbour’s, if you want to get all technical).  If you’re wondering what exactly is going on that’s okay—it’s all part of the experience.  Whispery pop-psychedelia and jingle-jangle Norcal folk are heavy in the mix.  We geeks shall inherit the earth.  The title says it all.  Berkeley’s Zughaus Gallery houses dinosaurs and unicorns and art-loving humans. Its latest show, Creation(-ism), was sensor-ific.  A comic where your internal organs are also supporting cast members. Need I say more?  Ford’s disarming voice and infectious guitar hooks propel lyrics that unflinchingly explore the depths of mental illness and loss.  A dreamworld filled with morbid creatures acting out their wildest fantasies.  In The Tunnel’s latest album, Carver Brothers Lullaby, rural Californian lore is the impetus for songs that nod to the Gothic as well as sheer loudness. |
