right next to the DO's page (#1 spot in this publication) is CTRL, the latest VICE USA that is. they make like a trillion copies of these. look for the upcoming issue of VICE AUSTRALIA for similar good stuff, done together with our SECOND FAMILY . we just came back from united tradeshow new york, the best show so far, honestly, it was so good for us. they love us over there. next up is stockholm, from whom we've got no love so far (??) - anyhow, remember this line "first we take over new york, then stockholm" and that's how it goes, they can't make up their own minds, they need see us adored in new york before hitting NK. so, yes, going to stockholm today, to work with KNOTAN . be prepared cute blue-eyed swede-boys. then we're off to united tradeshow in las vegas and the LA. check out what shannon aka shan-dawg (CHK CHK CHK ) just sent us !
was good seeing you in ny Shananana aka Two Tears !!!
PS. big up REASON and MISHKA - good fellas.

i'm saying no-one really knows what streetwear is today, but my man martin m & rest of the STW2D crew knows the most - check out a preview of the upcoming issue (it sure has a 4 page DOUBLE interview CTRL & freeman ) !
this magazine is a great, great magazine. and it's size XL, does not fit to a basic stockholm boy man-bag.
Not only because of the cool name Anton Corbijn chose for his film, but CTRL offers a special pre-screening of the movie called CONTROL at Maxim on 22.11, you can try and get a free ticket from Beamhil, Stupido or Helsinki10. Only a few left so act quick the film is a killer. Nice girls could get tickets straight from the CTRL boys, if asked nicely. If you are not nice nor a born female and didn't get a ticket you can still come to the CTRL/CONTROL after party at MISF*TS club at Redrum at the same date 22.11 (Klo 22-04 Vuorikatu 2, Helsinki) Dj lineup is Dj Makelove & Erkko. One of the CTRL favorites, DJ Timo Kaukolampi might make a special appearance. The same places where you might get the free tickets you will also find a limited edition of CTRL - LOVE WILL TEAR US APART teeshirts for sale. That's all, the film is great, Ian Curtis does that suicide after watching Stroszek, and hell, it's the fucking JOY DIVISION !!!

A proper video by the Handsome Furs, and what's that teeshirt dan is wearing there if not the love will tear us apart CTRL teeshirt. major major. the song is called Can't Get Started and it's fucking brilliant. also see these behind the scenes photos for an upcoming tv show they did in san francisco. can you find diet coke today mentos tomorrow teeshirt on dan ? or the overalls on lex ?? wait for more ! Oh man, what can you say, the Handsome Furs are MAJOR.
Also, the Who's Next tradeshow in paris was nice, big up to the aimecube crew ! the je'taime crew ! paris is a heartbreaker.
and the CTRL fashion show at STREET in stockholm last week was ultra-cool, a scandinavian success story. you know, like we always do about this time. thank you excellent clarion hotel, and koskenkorva vodka for making it all happen. and cost nothing. tack !

DIGITALGRAVEL.COM has a CTRL thing up in there,
yesyesyes, almost forgot, see another, CTRL x TACKY, interview here.
i am sam, thank you slam.
CTRL interview at mashmarket. also, this is a good mash. and here goes the best ever.
we love this girl, annie. really really do. and who wouldn't. she's half chewing gum, half amazing. she's no easy love, always too late. adorable. she's god's gift to norway, and norway's gift to us. her voice is from heaven, fingers from hell and that dress is sure from CTRL, the greatest hit.
the chances are, that we'll see, you'll see something coming out, something with Annie.
hey nick , why is this little girl standing in our way ? ? damn girl.
listen to nick's - some call him CATCHDUBS too - THE LET OUT SHOW, on eastvillage radio, also the home of Mark Ronson's the authentic shit show, which we're happy to promo, for free.
Nick was once djing at a CTRL party in helsinki too. anyway, it's the last ever let out show, ever ? that makes me really sad. what is Mark's show without Nick's show. nothing. what's a monday at the office without the podcast. a cheap monday, blue monday. anyway, if you've been listening to the let out show, maybe you heard a show a couple of months ago, with some "special international guests at the studio... CTRL's Freeman and Ninibananas !" that's right yo majesty, we made a little, unforgettable appearance on Nick's show, while we were taking over new york, in new york, with the CTRL show at the meatpacking district. sweet Annie was also a guest on nick's show. so it all links up. yes yes, a big shout out to my man Nick Catchdubs ! thank you for the let out show, it will be missed by the cool kids at CTRL. the internet killed the radio star !!! try wale - a decent download. that's all, straight up, A2M !!
click that tshirt to see the exxxclusive summer 07 line. AWESOME !
backstabbers, beware of this little invention called kevlar. rai rai rai .

here's the best online clothing store in the internet perhaps.
don't forget to check out the next missbehave magazine with a CTRL feature. we love you bijou.
YES YES, long time no updates, sorry about that, but we've been busy winning shit ! that's right, CTRL won the invitational competition for the WHO'S NEXT fashion tradeshow in Paris, 6-9 september. mental note to all the best distributors around there; we will look like something nice and you will find us from the FAST area. although, on the website they say CTRL is "funky", which we try not to be. try "monumental " or something like that. a great, red magazine called 032c tells me that the most hard to find werner herzog diaries will be re-released by the end this year. that's a real book. fucking awesome !
