Our man in Hong Kong ...

The bird market ...


(As in for your bird cage not for your frying pan)

Here's the day's sketchbook page !! Nothing to hide in the black corner up there ... Just built it up to have one of my shots from the said bird market fit right in and just haven't found which picture to put up yet ! So ... You get a big black square in the mean time !! Yep !

However , in other news !! Finally got the awaited call !! Re activation is official and my services as an international man of mystery are , yet again requested !! I'm shipping out tomorrow at the crack of 10 !! Don't think this assignment should drag on much longer than a week but I truly have no idea how long I'll be out for ! And more importantly ... I just don't know how much internetness I'll be able to get !! But fear not , beloved Plog followers , I will do my outmost to update on a regular basis ! Yep !! Absolutely !!

This sounds like a big one too ... Never been out on the field in Asia !! Let's see how it all goes !


Wish me luck !

Chokehold joints.



Chokehold were one of the most standout vegan straight edge hardcore bands of the 1990's, and craziest of all, they were from Canada. They first formed in 1990 and released the “More Than Ever” demo tape in 1991. At the time, few edge bands had yet to cross over into the heavier, slower riffs, and the band was soon renowned as one of the heaviest in hardcore, drawing ire from some purists for incorporating a much more metal influence into their sound. The band also stirred up a lot of controversy with their lyrical content, which also was far left-of-center when it came to other edge bands. However, controversy led to their rise in popularity, which paralleled that of other up and coming vegan straight edge bands such as Earth Crisis and hardline bands like Vegan Reich and Raid. While bands that adhered to Hardline were totally opposed to abortion, Chokehold was vehemently pro-choice (a message that's most prevalent in the "Content With Dying" LP). Members went on to play in such bands as The Swarm, Brutal Knights, Left For Dead, Haymaker, Our War and Seventy-Eight Days.
Disclaimer- The "Content With Dying" LP and "Instilled" 7" are CD rips, hence the albums being only one long track. Its how the band/label pressed them and I'm still not sure to this day why, but at least you get the CD quality rip.

Instilled (1994)

LOCRIAN - TERRITORIES




LOCRIAN RELEASES THEIR NEXT LP "TERRITORIES" MARCH 8TH... FUCK... BEFORE I SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE LP I HAVE TO SAY THAT LISTENING TO THESE SONGS PAINTS THE SAME PICTURE AS READING THE CORMAC MCCARTHY BOOK THE ROAD. AN ASHEN DEAD WORLD THAT HAS BEEN BURNED TO THE GROUND WHERE NOTHING LIVES. TERRITORIES IS EQUAL PARTS DRONE, BLACK METAL, DEVASTATING FEEDBACK, INCORPORATING MORE DRUMS, VOCALS. THESE TWO SONGS ARE INCREDIBLE. DIFFERENT FROM DRENCHED LANDS IN A GOOD WAY. IN A WAY THERE IS MORE TO THE TRACKS, MORE LAYERS THAT SEEM TO COMPLEMENT EACH OTHER.

BUY THIS LP BEFORE ITS TOO LATE. THESE GUYS PUT SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT INTO THEIR PACKAGING AS WELL AS THEIR MUSIC. EVERYTHING IS HAND NUMBERED AND THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING MORE.
IM PUTTING UP TWO TRACKS:

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, LISTEN TO THESE TRACKS, GO TO THE LINK, AND SUPPORT SOME REAL DUDES DOING REAL THINGS.

ALSO: POSSIBLE EAST COAST TOUR THIS SUMMER. BAD YEAR ROAD TRIP ROUND 2

Tuesday Grindday

Perfect albums to upload on trash night. Magrudergrind and Defeatist are two of my favorite new(er) grind bands who put out the following releases last year that seem like they may have gone under the radar. Both albums have great flow with blistering fast, technically sound grind that has tremendous replay value. Defeatist has also just released 2010's Sixth Extinction which you can buy here. (Upload to come later?) Be sure to check out both bands at this years MDF as well.

Defeatist - Sharp Blade Sinks Deep Into Dull Minds


my wallets gone


Magrudergrind - S/T


another round of strawberry for me and my friends

Click !


Don't ask ... As usual ... I just draw these doodles !! But hey , who am I to judge !? Some people like to pretend they are elf wizards with mighty magical powers on Sundays , some other people like to drag race their pimped up pick-up trucks on the main , drunk at night , others even like to throw acid on crowded street from the top of buildings ! So yeah ... She just likes to take pictures without any panties !! Everybody needs a hobby !


Catch yall later !! My bed is screaming my name !

Jatun- Blanket of Ash (2010)

Photobucket

Electronic synth-oriented shoegaze with minimal vocals. Very reminiscent of the early M83 records.
Do some space shrooms and a few hundred zong rips.
I'm 4 tracks in and my life is over.

Green not Blue ...

This time ladies and gentlemen ... Yes ! More Hong Kongness !! However , with my brand new baby this time !! My new 17/35 2.8 !!!!! For all of you non photo geeks out there , that's a very wide angle lens with a very nice F stop (aperture) !! Have wanted one of these for many many years now , dreamt about it at night and had severe pains whenever I'd see lenses anywhere ! And well , honestly , only in Hong Kong can I afford such a bad boy !!! So here it is ... The first roll with my new wide angle and this time with a cross processed PROVIA 100F !! From Victoria harbour to Kowloon city and the two last one's from my flat again !!















Green power !
