Having just wrapped their West Coast Tour 2012, Culprit is back in LA and ready to chat. We sat down with the indie rock band’s bassist, Zach Blumenfeld, to discuss all things music, tour life, and of course, tattoos.

We met at Starbucks on Ventura Boulevard around noon on Sunday, and Zach grabbed an iced coffee before we sat ...

Every tattoo has a story, but few are more moving than that of Michael and Melissa Flinchum. The Flinchum's 3-year-old son, Dylan, was diagnosed with terminal late-infantile metachromatic leukodystrophy in August 2011. This disease is responsible for the deterioration of white matter in Dylan's brain, which alters his muscle and mental functions. That same year, Dylan's parents ...

The new Staple Design x Beats By Dre Studio Headphones dropped at the Beats By Dr. Dre Soho store launch party last night. The headphone design is inspired by each New Yorker’s favorite dirty flying rodent, the pigeon. The headphones sport a two-toned gray body with white cushions and a pigeon logo above the Staple Design logo on the ...

    If you live in the northeastern part of the United States, you definitely remember the earthquake that hit on Tuesday afternoon. "My whole shop [Citizen Ink Studios in Sheepshead Bay] was swaying back and forth," said Joe Khay to the NY Daily News. "We thought we were hung over or something." "So then we check Facebook to find out what ......

    Inked spent an amazing few days at the Full Moon Tattoo & Horror Festival in Nashville, TN May 13-15th. In its 10th year, the festival was the perfect mix of horror & tattoos. From those excited to meet their favorite horror film stars to those looking for some new ink, we had an awesome time meeting the crowd and checking out a ton of tattoos. There was NO shortage of tattoo talent; The crew from Lone Wolf Body Art, Eric Newby from Ink Expressions, Bodean from Bodean’s Tattoos and Body Piercing, Vince Villalvazo from All or Nothing Tattoo & Arts Studio and the crew from Truth & Triumph Tattoo…to just name a few. We also had a great time meeting and mixing with big film legends like Malcolm McDowell (The Clockwork Orange) Tyler Mane (Halloween) Sig Haig (House of a Thousand Corpses) and of course Gary Busey. In addition, there was a new element added to the show this year; an Independent Horror Film Festival, which had films screening all weekend, making it a truly interesting and unique show. A BIG thanks ......

    Every great artist knows that truly special ink requires a precise blend of planning, design, aesthetics and character. In the world of custom motorcycle fabricators, those characteristics are also of paramount importance to create powerful machines with enough attitude and edge to satisfy the riders who mount them. Dave Perewitz understands both of these dynamics as one of the most ......

    When City of Ink cofounders Miya Bailey and Tuki Carter moved their tattoo shop Prophet Art from Asheville, NC, to Atlanta in 2000, they wanted a new start, both for the shop and their art. According to Bailey, the plan was "to break that boundary of what black people and Hispanic people should be getting as tattoos and reflect more ......

    Fifty years ago, the tattoo game in Brooklyn was a strictly blue-collar business dominated by hard men with names like one-eyed Max Pelz, Tony the Pirate, Jack Red Cloud, and Brooklyn Blackie. They were tattooers, not tattoo artists. They worked out of parlors, not art studios. They needled strong black lines and bold colors. They had a code of conduct ......

    In 1990, tattooer Oliver Peck made the decision to never again wear a pair of shoes that wasn't red. "It's sort of an LSD-induced pact I made with myself," Peck explains from the floor of Elm Street Tattoo, which he opened with partner Dean Williams in 1996. In the 12 years since Elm Street opened its doors, Peck ......

    When Th’ink Tank Tattoo Studio and Art Gallery opened in Denver it gave the ink-loving folks in the Mile-High City a quality place for tattoos and a stellar gallery space. It almost didn’t last. “When we first started, we opened up in a neighborhood that was just too pricey,” says artist Jef Kopp. “Luckily, we figured that out ......

    “Please note that I am a one-man operation so I am not always able to get back to people as quickly as I would like.” This is the apologetic ending to the voice mail greeting of Cherry Bomb’s sole artist and operator, Patrick Cornolo, who has had to deal with a lot of big changes this year. Located on ......

    Seventh Son might be the best amalgamation of all San Francisco’s tattoo scene has to offer. Co-owned by Jason Kundell (former coowner of Artwork Rebels), Erik Rieth (formerly of Everlasting Tattoo), and Luke Stewart (who was a regular guest artist at Artwork Rebel), the studio may be on the new side, but its artists have certainly been around long ......

    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 ......

    “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 ......

    When you ask Blackheart owner Scott Sylvia what sets his studio apart from the sea of shops in the Bay Area, you are likely to hear words like “established” and “tradition” somewhere in his response. And, “We don’t suck,” he says seriously. “There are only a handful of good shops left in the area,” Sylvia says with a combination ......

    The Bronx have a new album out—but you might not realize it. That’s because the Los Angeles band’s third album, like the two that came before it, is titled simply The Bronx. It’s part of the band’s plan to keep things simple—a plan that also includes recording at the group’s own studio and ......

    When music wonder twins Nina Sky took over dance floors with their 2004 hit, "Move Ya Body," even they weren't sure what they were doing. "Our first album was written about things we hadn't yet experienced in our lives," says Nicole Albino, one half of the duo. "We were 18, straight out of high school." After an exhaustive ......

    Jewelry designer Jules Kim doesn’t like to be ripped off, so the fact that her studio is in the heart of New York City’s Chinatown, the home of knockoffs, is a bit ironic. Not long after launching her high-end jewelry line Bijules in 2004 and seeing her work worn by everyone Gwen Stefani to Rihanna, Kim started a ......

    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 ......

    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 ......

    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 ......
