Todd Bratrud, after enjoying Milan’s Design Week, flew back to his “cave” in Grand Forks North Dakota, deep in the US Mid West.

Thank you Todd, and thank you Winston Tseng for letting us enjoy the incredible works of this American artist.

His precious bag of prints, silkscreens and stickers is luckily still in Milano and its items are available for purchase at the bastard store Limited Editions section.

Check out all the action from the Chiesa Iron War, hosted by Palù Park. After a short heavy metal intro (absolute Hard Cheese style), enjoy Nicolino Dioli corking everywhere, and  so many other bangers I can’t even remember all of them.

Thanks to Ciccio and all the Chiesa crew for the hospitality.

Punkreas new album- Noblesse Oblige

by davidelp 2 May 2012

The new Punkreas record is well worth a 4-years wait.
The name of the new album is Noblesse Oblige. Very topical subjects come along with top class collaborations such as Zulù (99 Posse lead voice) and the wind instrument section of the Bluebeaters.

The Punkreas will play old and new songs live on italian stages starting March 3rd when The Noblesse Oblige tour will start.

As they say, we proudly save them the trouble of walking around wearing only underwear.
