blog/denons-urban-raver-headphones-wont-disappoint
   

 

Like their name suggests, Denon's AH-D400 Urban Raver headphones are better suited for today's techno, trance and dubstep music. Despite having a very bass-heavy sound, the treble is crisp and clear, which was a welcome surprise. These over-ear headphones have an amplifier that can be turned on or off for more or less bass, but the "on" setting ...

    Whatever Goldfrapp do—from thumping electronica to glammed up romps—they do it for the dance floor. The British electronic music duo’s fifth full-length, Head First, is loaded with pulsating pop gems, such as “Alive,” that are a step away from the baroque pop of their previous album—and tailor-made for getting down. While Head First does occasionally get ......

    Nate Appleman, executive chef at San Francisco’s acclaimed A16 and SPQR restaurants, didn’t inherit his culinary chops from his parents. “They don’t cook,” says the chef.

    Athletes are known for getting tattoos in tribute to something that is meaningful in their life. Boston Celtics Guard Rajon Rondo recently got a tattoo of two interlocked R's on his back.

blog/tattoo-aftercare
    So I have been getting tattooed now for 14 years and have run the gamut on tattoo aftercare. Many factors influence conditions including the type of skin you have, location of the tattoo (whether it is covered), and the climate you live in. I used to keep it wrapped for 24 hours, wash with anti-bacterial soap, use some kind of ......

blog/back-school-tattoos-classroom
    Classroom etiquette hasn’t changed much in the past years, the all-to-familiar restrictions on students still exist; no talking, no hats, no short skirts, no chewing gum, and – the one most insulting to our nation’s facebook crazed, tweet happy youths – no cell phones. But here’s a new one … no tattoos. Students everywhere are expected to follow specific dress ......

blog/illegal-tattoos
    The right to tattoo is being fought in Hermosa Beach, California by John Anderson, owner of the Yer Cheat'n Heart tattoo shop.

Officials claim its a danger to public health ......

article/inked-industry
    Every week or so, we hear about a celebrity getting a brand-new tattoo. But it’s not just the stars who love their ink; those behind the camera—the ones responsible for making great films come together—have also been busy getting tattooed. From an up-and-coming producer and Shakespearean-trained stunt guy to a choreographer and an actor (who also happens ......

blog/hot-sauce-extravaganza
    The other day, our friends at Tabasco, made us a tailgating style lunch with all the fixings. Macaroni and cheese, baked chicken, ice cream sandwiches, and more. Everything they brought was made with Tabasco hot sauce, and I have to say that it reminded me of living in the south. All of us at Inked definitely appreciated the lesson on ......

music/trans-am
    Trans Am have always had a relatively esoteric identity, so it’s hard to know if the band are being sincere when they claim that Thing was originally commissioned as a “sci-fi horror adaptation of Romeo and Juliet.” Regardless of its inspiration, the album is evidence that this electro-inflected rock band haven’t lost any of their spark since their ......

blog/tattoos-idols

music/matt-pond-pa
    Matt Pond PA may not have the same hype surrounding them that peers like Vampire Weekend do, but when it comes to sweetly satisfying indie rock, it’s hard to top Pond’s unique brand of heartbreak. Their eighth album doesn’t disappoint; from orchestral-tinged ballads such as “Running Wild” to ambient excursions like “Winter Fawn,” the album sees Pond ......

blog/tea-party-tattoos
    With the release of the new "Alice in Wonderland" this weekend, I can only imagine the tattoo ideas this movie will provide.

blog/inked-oscars
    From the red carpet to the stage, tattoos were the talk of tinsel town at Sunday night's Academy Awards. Miley Cyrus commented on her mom's "nice choice in tattoos," to Ryan Seacrest. Nominated for Best Actress Helen Mirren's hand tattoo made her "even hotter," according to presenter Michael Sheen.  Although Mirren told Good Morning America that it ......

blog/remembering-alexander-mcqueen
    With his shaved head and tattoos, Alexander McQueen didn't appear like your typical fashion designer. Much less one who, until 2001, was chief designer for Givenchy. Known for his wacky catwalk shows, McQueen was one of the fashion world's brightest stars. Today the fashion world was hit with a big blow with the news that McQueen took his ......

blog/your-ticket-tattoo-freedom
    In celebration of Kat Von D gracing the cover of Inked for a third time, we're letting you in on Kat's secret for covering up tattoos when the occasion calls for it. Kat says, "If you wanna hide a tattoo just for one day, the proper concealer can make that happen! No one has to see what you ......

blog/where-we-come
    Ever wonder how some of your artists and piercers got into this industry.... We watch these tattoo and piercing shows and yet they never ask this one main question.... I find their roads to this industry are as diverse and interesting as the artist themselves.... For me i envied these artists for their talent and their knowledge but never had ......

music/converge
    Writers hate reviewing a new Converge album. The kings of underground hardcore metal deliver so consistently that it becomes an exercise in finding new ways to say, “They still shred.” Enter Axe to Fall, the most straightforward Converge album yet. It’s apparent from the opening blast of “Dark Horse,” a galloping shot of guitars and throat-searing screams, that Converge ......

games/halo-3-odst
    With Master Chief elsewhere in the universe, ODST follows an elite group of soldiers known as Orbital Shock Drop Troopers. As the team descends into New Mombasa amidst the heavy Covenant onslaught, they get separated, and a new recruit known as The Rookie must traverse the war zone and piece together what happened. As The Rookie uncovers information, players are ......

music/afi
    AFI made their transformation from hardcore kids to goth-punk pioneers look as easy as applying eyeliner. The truth is, they've been tweaking their formula, and Crash Love might be the closest they’ve come to perfecting it. “Beautiful Thieves” explodes into huge guitars and operatic backing vocals while “Veronica Sawyer Smokes” races around a punked-up Cure riff. On “Medicate ......

drive/hatch-made-heaven
    Elsewhere in the world, hatchbacks are ubiquitous. From Tokyo to Wolfsburg, they gamely fulfill their utilitarian purposes as people, uh, do whatever it is people do in other countries. Here in America, however, drivers have typically shunned small, fuel-efficient cars. That, of course, is quickly changing—but it doesn’t mean we’ve lost the very American need for speed ......

drive/going-topless
    One surefire way to start a fight: tell a gearhead that the newest generation of Chevrolet Corvette might challenge the sports car supremacy of the Porsche. It’s the type of argument that will probably end with a tire iron to the head. It’s also true. The new generation of Chevrolet Corvettes have ushered in a whole new approach ......

article/inked-girls-new-york-city
    Even on the crowded subways and streets, the tattooed women of the Big Apple stand out. We threw open our doors and invited them to show off their ink, and they arrived with tattoos of everything from killer zombies to My Little Pony. Here is a look at just some of the ladies who dropped by. Watch for the Inked ......

inked-spots/iron-age-tattoo
    When tattoo veterans Brad Fink and Mark Andrews decided to open Iron Age Tattoo in 1994, they modeled the new shop after a place most people hate—the dentist. “When we opened, there were only nine shops in the St. Louis area, and they were all older and dingier,” Andrews explains over the sound of music and buzzing needles. “We ......

inked-spots/tnt-tattoo
    “We worked hard to get to where we’re at,” says tattooist Kevin Mokuahi. “It’s the quality of our work that has given us our reputation.” And it’s true. Located off a major road between Waikiki and North Shore, the TNT shop is not in the most tourist-driven area, but its steady client base (primarily military and surfers ......

inked-spots/mike-ledger-tattoo
    “No one knew who I was when I moved to Hawaii,” says Mike Ledger. “I really had to work my way up from nothing again.” Originally from Farmingdale, New York, Ledger went from having a three-year waiting list to starting from scratch. “I had to prove myself and get accepted by the locals in Hawaii,” he remembers. Now he’s ......

inked-spots/philly-ink
    Philly Ink may be off the beaten path, but it’s well worth the trip into the Port Richmond section of the city. The shop, another former Philadelphia Eddie’s, is now run by Danny Emery, who grew up just six blocks away. “I used to get chased out as a kid because I was always coming around wanting to ......

inked-spots/philadelphia-eddies
    For those who appreciate a walk down memory lane, there’s only one shop in town to visit: Philadelphia Eddie’s. Opened 13 years ago by (you guessed it) “Philadelphia Eddie” Funk, it was passed down five years ago to two of his longtime colleagues, Jerry Donohoe and Tom Napp. These guys are the real deal for both authentic traditional ......

inked-spots/mister-cartoon
    “Everybody thinks I came into the tattoo world with a red carpet at my feet,” says venerated artist Mister Cartoon. It’s easy to understand why this misconception exists: Cartoon was already well known in as a muralist and illustrator before becoming interested in tattooing. “Being a professional artist was a handicap,” he says. “I would have had an easier ......

inked-spots/diamond-club
    Run by Bill Salmon with Juni, his wife of 20 years, Diamond Club is anything but your average mom-and-pop shop. Both Salmons have spent their whole lives tattooing, mostly as a team. “Working with my wife everyday is fun stuff,” says Bill. “It’s a good time everyday.” Before opening its doors to the public just a few years ago ......

inked-people/burn-halo
    When Orange County hardcore band Eighteen Visions ended their 11-year run in 2007, frontman James Hart had mixed feelings. He was disappointed but excited by the prospect of starting anew. Since the 2004 album Obsession, Hart had been pushing the band in a more hard rock direction, and some members had pushed back. Now that he was on his own ......

inked-people/chase-kusero
    Imagine you're a Hollywood hairstylist working on a movie with Colin Farrell, whose hair you've been shampooing, blow-drying, and keeping reasonably coiffed for weeks. When the time comes that Farrell needs a cut, would you go near the boozy bigmouth with a pair of scissors? No, you'd probably call in reinforcements. And that's how Los Angeles ......

inked-people/heather-gabel
    When Heather Gabel created Alkaline Trio's iconic skull and heart logo through a happy accident with a photocopier, she had no idea the countless tattoos it would inspire. "I was at Kinko's making a flyer and was like, 'I'm just going to throw this in here,'" she remembers. "I was 19 and pretty heavily into skulls at ......

inked-people/ted-nemeth
    "Shit, where am I?" furniture designer Ted Nemeth mumbles into the phone before asking to reschedule our interview, blaming his confusion on a booze-fueled night out. Apparently, a pre-noon phone interview on a Saturday is a ridiculous request for this Brooklyn-based designer. You see, Ted Nemeth Designs is no Ethan Allen. Both make ottomans and end tables, but only one ......

inked-people/missy-suicide
    The explosion of tattooed, pierced, and otherwise modified models can be traced back to one Portland, Oregon, woman who was fed up with "siliconeenhanced Barbie dolls." Using her prior experience on the Web and the camera skills she learned in art school, Selena Moody (now known as Missy Suicide) snapped photos of her friends in pinup-style poses and worked with ......

inked-people/civet
    Most artists are inspired by art they love, but it was a particularly bad backyard show by a Los Angeles punk group that spurred singer Liza Graves to form a band. "I went home and started my own band because I was so disappointed," Graves remembers. She teamed with her sister, guitarist Suzi Homewrecker, bassist Jacqui Valentine, and drummer Danni ......

inked-people/horitaka
    Ten years ago, when tattooer Horitaka traveled to Japan and sought out tattoo master Horiyoshi II with hopes of starting a back piece, he had no idea what he was truly beginning. "I wanted him to do my back piece, which is now finally completed, and we just hit it off," Horitaka explains. "If you had told me at that ......

inked-people/scott-shriner
    ROCK OF LOVE We hang out at home with Scott Shriner—the only tattooed member of Weezer—to talk marriage, ink, and the band’s shocking sixth album. In a quiet neighborhood east of Hollywood, down winding tree-lined streets, sit homes belonging to Luke Wilson, Terry Gilliam, Barack Obama, and Weezer bassist Scott Shriner, who is standing in his living ......

    Denise Richards returns with a new television show and a new tattoo, courtesy of Kat Von D. Here’s what happens when two reality TV queens collide. Check out behind the scenes photos of the shoot at Moli.com! When something sureal goes down in Hollywood, it ’s safe to assume reality TV is involved. How else would Denise Richards ......

inked-people/game
    To say Jayceon “The Game” Taylor is a man of many contradictions is an understatement. An example: He grew up in Compton, CA, gangbanging with the Bloods even though his own mom was once affiliated with the Crips. He’s a cocky son-of-a-bitch who’s never been afraid to publicly champion himself as the greatest rapper alive. At the same ......

inked-people/seth-wood
    Landing an appointment with famed New York City tattooer Seth Wood is tough. Finding him is the really hard part. Although he works a booked-solid schedule at Daredevil Tattoo and his own home studio, Wood spends more time traveling to conventions and guest spots at shops around the world, such as Invictus Custom Tattooing in Oslo and LTW in Barcelona ......

inked-people/todd-burnes-and-olivia-miner
    As different industries continue to embrace tattoos, the importance of pre serving the integrity of the culture has never been more important. That’s where Todd Burnes and Olivia Miner, of Canvas Los Angeles, come in. Originally conceived as a modest boutique, Canvas Los Angeles quickly expanded into a 4,000-square-foot store and gallery showcasing the cloth ing designs and ......

inked-people/mitchell-binder
    There is a balance to accessorizing: You want to look like you’re not about to take shit from anyone, but you don’t want to over do it and end up more Prince than punk. For some, this balance is an inherent trait. If you’re not one of these people, meet Mitchell Binder. Binder started his accessories company ......

inked-people/dyslexic-speedreaders
    What does it take to be a flash in the pan? Apparently, a combo of the right drugs, locker room references to genitals, and blatant pride about things that common sense would tell you to keep quiet. And Paris Hilton never hurts. Right now, I’m on the phone with Dirt Nasty and Andre Legacy, two thirds of the Los ......

inked-people/siri-garber
    Siri Garber, founder of Platform Public Relations in Los Angeles, has a groovy voice—a raspy, powerful one that probably makes some of her male clients think about pleasure, rather than business, when she picks up the phone. But this celebrity publicist’s throaty purr isn’t a result of barking orders. “I think some of us [in the public ......

inked-people/theo-kogan
    “I decided I wanted to be a clown when I was 7 years old,” says Theo Kogan, lead singer of Theo and the Skyscrapers. The whole clown thing didn’t quite work out, but, she says, “I think in a way I sorta became a clown on my own, especially with Lunachicks [Kogan’s first band]. That was taking clown ......

inked-people/thrasher-funds
    Get out your friggin’ checkbook, because these guys are ready to take it and put it to good use. And when you’re 60 or something, you’re going to have a pile of cash to spend on stuff that the elderly need, like Viagra. But seriously, Thrasher Funds, which manages a mutual fund and a privately held, pooled investment ......

inked-people/michael-madsen
    “There’s a huge snow blizzard. Holy shit.” Michael Madsen is getting snowed in at his ranch in Montana. Married with six kids, I ask him if his entire family is with him. “Yes, except for my two older ones. They’re 16 and 18, back in L.A. pumping pussy. I don’t blame them.” With most actors, you ......

inked-people/misfit-dior
    It’s true a British accent makes anyone sound more interesting, but that’s only part of what makes people want to listen to rapper Misfit Dior. She first got attention for starring on VH1’s White Rapper Show (she was the only contestant good enough not to have to audition), but she’s been rhyming since she was 12 ......

inked-people/eagles-death-metal
    Considering most, if not all, of the songs from Eagles of Death Metal’s first two albums are about screwing almost anything with a vagina, it’s funny that lead singer Jesse Holmes never got laid until he met his wife. “Girls didn’t want to have sex with me, and they had no problem letting me know. The song ......

The band will be signing copies of their new album Laugh Now, Laugh Later with Corey Miller, who designed the album artwork. Come by to pick up copies of ......

games/saboteur
    Part Sin City, part Casablanca, The Saboteur stands out from the overcrowded collection of WWII games by going black and white. After the Germans invade France, the only color left is the bold red of Nazi banners hanging over Paris. To restore color to the City of Lights, street-smart Irish race car driver turned French Resistance supporter Sean Devlin must ......

games/brutal-legend
    Roadies spend the majority of their time hauling equipment and tuning instruments. Not Eddie Riggs. After he spills blood on his badass belt buckle in a backstage mishap, the world’s best roadie is transported to an alternate universe ripped straight from a heavy metal album cover. Under the reign of evil Lord Doviculus and his glam rockin’ minion General ......

article/mad-dogs
    Three days had passed since Clara, a three-year-old English bulldog, was stolen outside a grocery store in Manhattan's Hell's Kitchen neighborhood. The NYPD followed a few leads but in a city with nearly 500 homicides a year, a missing dog was not exactly at the top of the local police blotter. Then a crew of intimidating-as-hell, tattoo-clad equalizers ......

    “People come by the store all the time just to play pool,” laughs Shamrock manager Cody McCarthy. “That’s why it’s called the ‘Social Club.’” While the shop has famously tattooed celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Bruce Willis, its real claim is being the place to go for black and gray work. “When you talk about black and gray ......

inked-spots/tattoo-city
    Co-owned and operated by venerable artists Ed Hardy and Fip Buchanan, Tattoo City, in the heart of the historic North Beach area, is at the apex of the tattoo world. Hardy himself hand picks each of the store’s artists to carry on the tradition he began more than 40 years ago. “Everyone has an individual style, but they all ......

inked-spots/primal-urge
    Grime talks fast, but his work takes time; his website, grimemonster.com, informs visitors that the wait to get inked is currently a whopping three years. Opening the store just over a year ago (after, Grime says, he grew tired of the “speed freaks” and “shitty landlord” he was dealing with at the now-defunct Artwork Rebels), Grime and his staff ......

inked-spots/everlasting-tattoo
    “We are more or less the anti-shop shop,” says Everlasting Tattoo’s Henry Lewis about this staple on the San Francisco tattoo scene. “We’re more like a fine arts tattoo gallery.” Why? To begin, there is no flash of any kind in the store. Instead the walls are decorated with paintings by the artists, many of who have had ......

inked-people/margaret-cho
    Nothing about Margaret Cho made it look like she had a chance in hell in Hollywood. Chubby, Korean, and bisexual (she admits to all three) in a business that typically has a hard time swallowing that list, Cho’s rank as one of the biggest female comedians on the planet is the result of a one-woman battle, built from her ......

    “When I shop at Nordstrom, the store employees follow me around,” says Los Angeles makeup artist and handbag designer Allison Burns. If only those department store employees, on the look for shoplifters, knew they were tailing the head of a handbag line coveted by celebrities and now sold at Bergdorf Goodman and more than 250 boutiques worldwide. Burns started her ......

inked-people/tara-mcpherson
    Sitting down with artist Tara McPherson you’re likely to get a lesson in physics these days: “When you take a super bright object, like a quasar, and place it in front of a massive object, it creates the illusion of four identical objects surrounding the original. That’s called Einstein’s Cross gravitational lens.” To hear this pouring so ......
