Skate and Annoy: Daily

Born Ugly Magazine #4

What a beautiful baby

Born Ugly Magazine is still chugging along. Issue #4 just came out. You can download it online at BornUglyMag.com or if your are fast enough you can pick up a hard copy in some skate shops around the country. No joke, even in the opposite end of the country here in Portland, Oregon at such fine establishments as Cal Skates and Shrunken Head. Born Ugly is in a unique position to become teh heir apparent to Concussion, albeit with a different vibe. I hope they do, but I have to take issue with the review of the cult classic Surf Punks album. If your friends don’t like to listen to My Beach, then it’s time to get new friends! Issue #4 has a spotlight on the old friend of the site Bill Daniel. You may remember him from such stellar appearances as the Texas Skatepunk Scrapbook, Bill’s old site hosted here on Skate and Annoy.

  • i heard that new shop, THIS, in north dakota is listed in it!

  • The surf punks two albums (self-titled & locals only) are the most underrated classics of that era. My beach, my chicks, my waves, go home!

      Josh, are you aware there are in fact four Surf Punks albums? Five if you include the original independent release of first album with a slightly different track listing. There’s the pseudo live E.P. Party Bomb and “Oh No, Not Them Again.” Both not nearly as excellent as the first two, somewhat disappointing in fact, but they have have their moments.

        my copy of ‘Oh no not them again” stunk of patchouli. I think they did a scratch and sniff thing with that album!.

      • Oh no not them again was a gag album, party bomb was a live comp of re-recorded cuts & my beach was a rerelease of the 1st album, so yeah really jus the 2 LPs.
