Watain

By Dougernaut

I’ve been obsessed with this band lately. I went and checked them out in Portland and San Francisco last week. If you like black metal, and the stench of pigs blood, give these guys a listen.

More metal than ya Ma’s kettle.

My Friend Sam

By Mike Giant

My buddy Clay sent me this photo of Sam Flores and I leaving Toronto last week.

Sam and I have been friends since we were teenagers in Albuquerque. Check out his work if you’ve never heard of him. I think he’s really talented.

Also, as you can see in the photo, I’m wearing the new Crewneck Sweatshirt. I wear it every day. I think you should really consider grabbing one before they’re all gone!

Refused Are Not Fucking Dead

By Dougernaut

Last week I got to catch up with my good homies The Bronx again when they opened up for Refused in SF. Here’s some pics from a wild fucking night. Enjoy!

Crack is a helluva drug.

I mean, it really is.

The Bronx killed it as usual. They are one of my favorite bands to see live. Always repping the 8.

Ran into my old buddy Nick (As I Lay Dying) smashing a hot dog.

I had never really heard The Hives until this show, but they were really fucking awesome!

Then shit got  weird.

McGruff says no to drugs, The Bronx can’t.

Refused totally killed it.

Good fucking times!

Straight Up

By Joshy D.

Read very closely what Mike Giant said in an interview with Be Street magazine.

“It’s cool to see the rappers wearing our stuff, but I get just as stoked when I see a kid in my neighborhood wearing it. They’re equal in my eyes. I don’t care where you’re from, how old you are, or how famous you are. I don’t care if you’re a rapper, a skater, a punk, a tagger, or whatever. I’m just glad that you’re feeling what REBEL8 has to offer. Straight up.”

Last Days in Toronto

By Mike Giant

On Monday afternoon I hooked up the front of Bikes on Wheels on Queen Street.

I think it came out pretty cool.

Yesterday I linked up with my buddy Sight again to finish a wall we started last Thursday.

We’re both in BA Crew, so he hooked up “Burning Alive”.

I finished the wall off with a character, something I haven’t done in quite a while.

I’m back in SF now. Back to work…

Tomales Bay

By Joshy D.

Took a trip up North to Tomales Bay this past Sunday.

I don’t give a shuck.

#OysterLife

This one was dope. Homemade chorizo on a fresh Tomales Bay oyster straight off the grill.

Partied all day with my tank sister.

I love this photo.

Zoom is crucial.

Happy birthday Veronica!

Rainy Sunday

By Mike Giant

Still in Toronto! My man Abel painted this back in 2006. It’s still up.

I hooked up with my man Skam this morning. He owns a shop called Homebase where I re-upped my paint supply.

Then we packed up our gear and headed out to paint a wall, despite the rain.

We had to wait a while before the wall was ready to paint. It was quite wet and cold. But eventually the weather mellowed out and we got to work.

This is what I came up with today. Strictly freestyle. I like how it came out.

My man Clay came by to hang out. He organized the UNO party, which was an incredible success.

My buddy Sight came through again today. We painted together three days in a row!

Having a blast in Toronto. Lots more action planned for my last two days here.
