We were conscious that it could happen, but it didn’t occupy front space so to speak.”

Something about that feels weird, its like someone just came in, took my identity, patented it and then redefined it. hmmm. not really sure how i should feel, except for the fact that this magazine is one of the sickest printed visual explotions i have ever seen. props and kudos! be sure to check them out at their website and hit up their myspace.
