Today Lux Interior of The Cramps died, something very few people would have believed to be actually possible. This is a sad day. With him, one of my all time favourite bands leaves the stage for ever. I never saw them live.
Xavier Encinas: Apart from the swiss stuff, here's some fresh work by french art director Xavier Encinas.
