[FOMO-GRAPHS & MINI CULT TALK] Bleached Gets Kissaulted At The Troubador

Bleached played the Troubador the other night for the final date of their national tour in support of their extra-excellent debut album Ride Your Heart, and in short,  it was the best (I am a talented and multifaceted writer). It could be argued that I am a tad bit biased,...

[TRUE STORY] Sometimes Couples Don't Have Sex And It's Fine: Part 2

[TRUE STORY] Sometimes Couples Don’t Have Sex And It’s Fine: Part 2

And I’m back. Where was I? Oh yeah, my abuse of sex as a means to express power and dominance, that’s right… (if you missed yesterday’s post, or need a refresher, go here.) But, to sum it up, I was talking about how I didn’t have sex for a couple of weeks, and why I...

[PRETTY PICTURES] Postcard From Australia

We’ve featured the work of Aussie-photographer Renee Carey on Cultist Zine before, after I fell in love with her use of light, and the tomboy-ish-yet-vulnerable spirit of a particular editorial she shot for Oyster Magazine. Following the post, Renee graciously reached out to me via email to thank me for my words about her photography,...

[TRUE STORY] Sometimes Couples Don’t Have Sex And It’s Fine: Part 1

So, I have a confession to make. Well, two, actually. I’m the worst girlfriend ever, and the worst sex editor ever. Why? Mind your fucking business, and also because I recently went three weeks without having sex with my boyfriend. And the icing on my double-decker failure cake, decoratively topped with sex-starved tuxedo and gown-wearing miniature...

[ROSES ARE RED] A Poem About Car Rides And Baby Hairs

Apparently we’re posting poetry now. Don’t judge us…  I liked you from the beginning, because you always offered to drive, even when we took my car out, and yours had been towed due to unpaid parking tickets.You said it made you feel like a man, because we didn’t have much money back then, and you couldn’t buy me...

[CULT TALK] Brendan Donnelly Gets Deep About Craigslist

  Sometimes when I’m wallowing in a warm bath of hopelessness and angst about, well, everything, I take a moment and remember that there are people like Brendan Donnelly, and my existential misery is momentarily lifted (then I visit with my friend Jack Daniels for a while). I don’t know fuck-all about art, but I...

[LONELY HIGHWAYS] I Once Was Free Falling Through The Universe And Realized I Was Dead

In the park they sat and vomited strawberries until they went blind.  ”I am all you’ll ever need”         ♡ someone once told me that they wanted to fuck me in my face in order to get closer to my brain that person is a ghost now and you are taking too...

[CULT TALK] The Shrine on Unity, Balsamic Dressing, and Tourette Syndrome

Interview and photos by Klaus It wouldn’t be fair to try and describe The Shrine by wedging them into an onomatopoeic sub-category (e.g. fuzz soaked, synthy echo-pop with sizzling punk roots), or to pinhole them by mashing together examples of pre-existing names in music history (like if the Ramones dropped a vile of acid and...

[CULT TALK] Mac DeMarco On Taco Bell, Disney Princesses, And Coldplay

(All photos by Alexander Uhrich) Mac DeMarco is a simple man. He likes cigarettes, instant coffee, and denim clothing, but despite popular thought to the contrary, he does not particularly like smoking weed. Mac is the kind of guy who will headline a sold-out show at The Echoplex, then come to the after-party you invite...

[BEST VIDEO EVER] Major Lazer “Get Free”

Holy Caribbean Vacation Fantasy. I’ll have you know, I am bootie-shaking and gyrating and letting out little gutteral moans as I write this. Like, right now. In the middle of my office. Bootie shaking and doing the butterfly and also googling places to get hair-wraps in Los Angeles, since I can’t afford a plane ticket...
