Shit and Shine
You're Lucky To Have Friends Like Us
Who are Shit and Shine? A bizarre London/Texas hybrid of weird shit currently causing a stir down London way that’s who.
Having been lauded as the band of Sonar 2006, and following two sold out releases on Riot Season & Latitudes, Shit and Shine return with their debut album proper ‘Jealous Of Shit And Shine’. Taking a slightly more mature musical stance, ‘Jealous Of Shit And Shine’ is equal parts Strangulated Beatoffs, Butthole Surfers, Merzbow, Melvins and Boredoms - fusing sonic blasts and monster riffs into a hearty brew.
FILM:
Donnie Darko (2001)
Director:Richard Kelly
Some may think that Donnie Darko is a typical maladjusted teenager. Actually, Donnie is borderline delusional, beset by visions of a monstrous rabbit which is trying to keep him under its sinister influence. Prompted by this apparition, Donnie commits antisocial acts while he is undergoing psychotherapy, surviving the vagaries of high-school life and romance, and fortuitously escaping a bizarre death...
STRIP:
Sebastian O - Morrison/Yeowell
An early example of what became known as steampunk, Sebastian O tells the story of a young flamboyant assassin in an alternate history, technologically advanced Victorian era London and his attempts to track down whoever condemned him to prison for his moral crimes and transgressive literature.Trained as an assassin, the world-traveling Sebastian belongs to the Club de Paradis Artificiel, which included the lesbian George, the pederast Abbe, and Sebastian's current nemesis, Lord Theo Lavender. While certainly morally unsound (he shoots a police officer in cold blood and has his butler feed it to cats) Sebastian is nonetheless a sympathetic character as he tracks down the whereabouts of Lavender, who betrayed him and had Sebastian locked up in Bedlam for offending Victorian morals.
