Fourstar have a new clothing collab with AntiHero out this month featuring a new Tony Trujillo collection constisting of tees, long sleeve, shirts, hoodies and jackets.
This 50/50 wool flannel plaid shirt should keep you warm in the coming winter months ahead with double pockets, satin interior and neck lining with plenty of room to skate in. The tees and long sleeve cotton shirt are as soft as a baby’s arse and come in various luminous colours. There’s also a hunting jacket (that comes in black and brown) with plenty of pockets for your junk and also not too heavy so you can still get a shred on.
Look out for these in your local skate shop this month.

Red Bull DIY Documentary
Ph: Korahn Gayle backlips at Stoke, shot by Rich West
Sirus F Gahan visited three of the many DIY spots built in this year’s Red Bull concrete sharing comp countrywide and came back with a bunch of footage for your viewing pleasure. From a disused road that was underneath a layer of greenery in Inverness, Scotland, Grimm’s DIY project that took a thump in Newport, Wales, to Parlour’s friends that have made use of disused land in Luton, the end results were great.
Get stuck in and thanks to everyone who got off their arses to build their own spots.

Wand
WandIt seems only moments ago that Wand first graced our ears with their fine sonic wares. April release Golem offered a marvellous display of velcro fuzz walls and crazed keyboard tones that would have had even DikMik quaking in his psychedelic boots. So it’s with much delight we find the band have teamed with Drag City, and are set to drop another brand new record this September 25th titled 1000 Days that you can stream below.
Lead tune ‘Dungeon Dropper’ wastes no time, steaming into the room on the sleaziest groove going. Though these new riffs seem to perch precariously on a sharp psychedelic switchblade – If King Buzzo was snarling atop these licks it’d be a total different story, and one coated in sludge. But with leading man Corey Hanson’s acid tinged harmonies fighting to the fore, this two minute stomper creeps into early Tame Impala and Pond territories, waving the sparkly freak flag sky high for all to see.
The album has a tendency to go from upbeat pop grooves to 60’s flower psych, to the most crunching riffs and psychedelic jams heard on record this year. It’s a phenomenal record that sees the band step into a new dimension that seems to fit like a glove.
Hit play below and order a physical copy of 1000 Days Our new interview with frontman Cory Hanson explains exactly what went into the making of it.
