thehaar.org
Extremely dry weirdness from the east coast of Scotland. Exemplary design skills and no little comedy talent too in the text. A very fine site.


Team Wonderful
Sublime original comedy by the extraordinary William Andrews. "Brilliant and great".

McMental.co.uk
This is some brilliant inspired animation lunacy. Starring Jox McRox - superstar DJ. Swing around the site's eye candy then make sure you see the webisodes. Mental.

MOJO
The website of the Miscarriage of Justice Organisation (Scotland).

bringdaruckus
Wide-ranging site focussed on the Scottish hip-hop scene (and more).

infinitewheel.com/dubselector
Sensational animated music site where you can mix some dub by interacting with the images.

tps online.org
This is a website that in three clicks will stop those pesky cold calls coming down your telephone (usually when you're about to pile into a big plate of creamed potatoes).



 

"F*** the goatee!"


Click the pic to enlarge it.

The Reverend Obadiah Steppenwolfe, Frankie Boyle and Martin Bigpig are pictured above exhorting their followers to "f*** the goatee".

As an owner of a goatee, I have mixed feelings about the overt lyric in this song, but yet, in their way, what these men were saying to the world was less to do with goatees than it was to do with making preparation for the apocalypse.

Given the ethnic diversity of the trio: one tee-total, one degenerate and one Irish, this seminal performance in Glasgow in March 2005, was nothing less than a clarion call for all of the disenfranchised to rise against the yoke of conformity and to singe the beard of the oppressor.

Some of us were there on the night the system trembled.


The fine folk at online music station Radio Magnetic agreed to feature a little music mix I sent 'em recently. You can hear it here.

My friends at the news satire magazine wreckered are back in business with new editions of the magazine. Issue 12 now online and with further updates to follow. Bookmark it.
