ALIFE FUBU BOX LOGO T-SHIRT

Posted on 2013-12-30

A new parody T-shirt is coming from Alife this week. Some of you may remember the popular ’90s hip-hop brand FUBU. FUBU, short for “For Us By Us,” became really big in the U.S. in the mid ’90s. Alife put together the name with the iconic Supreme box logo look, with the outcome being rather ironic, because the two could not be any more different.

WOODEN SHJIPS – EVERYBODY KNOWS

Posted on 2013-12-30

A new video for Everybody Knows which drops from the album Back To Land, the quartet’s follow-up to West, is the first Wooden Shjips record to be conceived outside of San Francisco. Ripley Johnson and Omar Ahsanuddin moved to Oregon, where the lush climates became a major influence on the songwriting. The band’s scope expanded to include more earthy, grounded tones, such as the acoustic guitar, without abandoning their modernist psych core.

The LP version is pressed on opaque pink vinyl and packaged in a gatefold jacket with high gloss UV printing that is housed in a deluxe die cut O-Card. A free download coupon is included. The pink vinyl edition is ONLY available through Thrill Jockey mailorder
