“Will I Go To Hell For This” review
Dato has written the first review of the new book: Will I Go To Hell For This. Find it on his blog.(in danish)
Historien om 25 års graffiti på de gamle S, er så godt beskrevet med historiske facts og sande eller til begivenheden historier med et tykt lag smør på at det er så sejt at læse om, at man næsten får fedtet fingre, historier om Yen i Birthe Kjærs have, historien om da vi blev invaderet af Hollændere som Bando og Shoe og en masse andre Røverhistorier som du simpelthen må læse om.
From Dato’s blog.
Update:
The second positive review is in for Will I Go To Hell For This this time you can read it at rapgame.dk.(in danish)

Will I Go To Hell For This lever op til hypen – rapgame.dk
Efter lang tids venten er det nu endelig tid til at se om bogen Will I Go To Hell For This lever op til forventningerne. Personligt var jeg bange for, at den massive hype, der har været omkring bogen, ville gå hen og give bagslag fordi den ikke blot blev nødt til at være god; den blev nødt til at være fantastisk for at vinde respekt. Lad mig med det samme slå fast at Will I Go To Hell er fanstastisk!
Update 2:
4 out of 6 hearts from Politiken‘s Simon Lund in the latest review of Will I Go To Hell For This.
Velskrevet og med et solidt udvalg af de vigtigste aktører på graffitiscenen kommer vi forbi nogle af graffitiens problematikker og får lige berørt eksempelvis det æstetiske paradigmeskifte fra amerikansk til hollandsk stil i bogstaverne.
Check it out here.

“Will I Go To Hell For This” Interview
We have all felt a strong responsibility to make everything right. It’s like the whole Danish graffiti scene is watching over your shoulder saying “Don’t fuck this one up!” We like to think we haven’t.
ILG posted an interview with the authors of the new book “Will I Go To Hell For This“.
The release parties for the book is this Sunday in Copenhagen and Århus.
Update:
The author of the book also did a radio interview with a Danish morning radio show. It can be heard here.
I har talt med et hav af graffiti malere under vejs, Hvad er den vildeste historie du har hørt?
Vi har jo hørt mange vilde røver historier, anekdoter og sjove ting og sager fra graffiti malere fordi man oplever en hel masse når man er ude og male graffiti eller når man beskæftiger sig med det.
En sjov anekdote var måske at vi interviewede en svensker der havde været i Danmark og male og da de så skulle gemme sig ude ved de her s tog så skyndte de sig ind at gemme sig i en busk, da der kom en vagt, men ham vagten fandt så ud af at der lå sig nogen i den her busk og hev dem ud af busken. Hvad laver i her? Er i graffiti malere? Nej, Nej vi er bare nogen fulde svenskere! Kan vi nu ikke engang få lov til at ligge og være fulde svenskere i en busk mere? Det kunne de så godt, så de fik lov til at gå igen.
Update 2:
Yet another interview this time with a local tv-station from Copenhagen.

Update 4:
Another radio show featuring the book. via ILG
Graffiti kan ikke stoppes. Men det kan fjernes. Og den graffiti der laves på DSBs s-tog bliver som regel fjernet i løbet af timer. Alligevel er der en stor subkultur af unge mennesker som sørger for, at der sjældent går et døgn, uden at s-togene bliver malet. Og nu er der udkommet en stor bog der dokumenterer 25 års dansk s-togs graffiti. Klubværelset viser et lydbillede af den danske s-togs grafftiti kultur, og har en af togmalerne i studiet.

Hello from Bangkok – DUA Boys [vimeo]
[vimeo clip_id=”93248561″ height=”” width=”628″]
This chapter shows our trip to Bangkok. Our original plan was to spend a some days in Bangkok and move on, but we had such a good time we cancelled our onwards tickets and just stayed in Bangkok. We spend most of our time exploring the area along the tracks in Bangkok. One of the things I find really fascinating is how full of life the trackside areas are in big asian cities like Bangkok. People eat, sleep and live only meters away from the trains. Children play on the tracks. Men raise roosters for fighting along the tracks and spend hours every day training them. We spend a couple of weeks chilling with the locals, watching rooster fighting, drinking Thai whiskey and of course painting some nice walls along the tracks.
