Ok you’ve got your Sigafoos model. Also available is the very cool Death Angel, which is a retro shape reminiscent of the old Santa Cruz Claus Grabke. The art is also don by Ken Sigafoos. The picture here doesn’t do it justice. You’ll have to go to the Extinction web site to see a large […]

Uh yeah. We’re not above reviewing old videos on VHS apparently. We’re also not above lifting the pictures of the VHS box off of Outlook Skates web site. There is a special edition DVD of Yeah Right! available, which I imagine is like the VHS, only special. So if you like the VHS copy, it’s […]

The Briefs: Steal Yer Heart Label: BYO Release Date: 10/08/2005 Review Date: 11/03/05 The Briefs still rule. This is their 4th full length, (5th if you count the excellent collection Singles Only). First things first. Steal Yer Heart is not as good as the previous four, but it’s still good. Part of the problem is […]
