Hey there :) Just wondered, did you take the pictures yourself? Its just im currently completing my Final Major Project for my publishing course and im making a music magazine. Having a massive problem with copywrite :/ If you did take the pictures would i be able to use the ones of pulled apart by horses? because they are the best ive found :P they really capture how mental they are. You would be a MASSIVE help. Id put your name on the pictures and if you want i can sent you the mag when its done so you can put it in a portfolio or summat? Would be a MASSIVE help :) If your interested could you email me on only-inhuman@hotmail.com Cheers :) [view article]

Its shorter than the others by literally like 3 minutes. Its hard to hit a half hour dead one, its always gonna be either just under or over that, but were working on it. I can't take all the credit. Jack did a superb job in editing the show and obviously Rob and Jerm did a fantastic job with their segments. Hopefully Jeremiah will continue to do segs for the show. He did a great job on his first attempt. [view article]
