War of the Worlds



A Chanel Bazooka, A Louis V Chainsaw and A Versace AK47? Keep scratching your sockets, they are for real.  Peter Gronquist just opened his solo “The Revolution will be Fabulous” at Gallery 1988 and shows you how to manipulate in style. These blinged out weapons are for sale. From Luis Vuitton, to Takashi Murakami, and Fendi, you name it.  It might cost you your life. 

I Wishka for Mishka



Mishka NYC dreams of chainsaw wielding teddy bears and robotic horror imagery, this is exactly what they have created in and around them. Some say the label was the product of a heavy metal Satanic ritual gone horribly right. Their latest line is based on the works of famous Brooklyn based custom tattoo artist, JK5 who has worked with names across the board from Tylenol to Toy Tokyo. They are so incredibly diverse and you can tell from the helter-skeltered mixtapes that end up in their online Doombox that they are true heads for all that is beyond the mainstream.
