We here at Thee Temple ov Psychick Blah have enjoyed the nifty features of Trust Zabo™‘s linkchecker for many years now, and today, we’re proud to announce that Fecal Face™ have launched their very own little link checker – with a slightly different, but nevertheless exciting and entertaining selection of art and design news sources.

This means that you can now spend your entire day with your index finger on the F5 button. Hurrah!

In other yummy design news, Myron Campbell has finally updated his beautifully cryptic and grotesque website NotSoSimpleTon.

Other recently updated art & design project sites:

Aesthetic Apparatus | AntiGirl™ | Bipolar Comics | Born Magazine | Cthulhu Sex Magazine | Dimension7 | Heiko Müller | Hoogerbrugge.com | Jamungo | Lesley Reppeteaux | Matt Clark | May 1 Reboot | NoStar Clothing | Raster 7.0 | Space Invaders Shop | Subversive Cross Stitch | TokyoPlastic | Urban Collective | WebEsteem | Witham & Woodhall’s Pebble Museum | Woman In Action

• 6 May 2005 marks the start of the Monsters of Mash-up Tour featuring Bong-Ra, Enduser and Shitmat.

Together they will be touring Austria, Poland, Germany, Slovenia, The Netherlands, Belgium, France, Helvetistan (Yay!), England and Wales until May 28, 2005.

Aren’t we all lucky, ay?

• This year’s FORM OF HANDS festival will take place from 29 – 30 April at Maschinenhalle Zeche Zweckel in Gladbeck – atmospherically probably the best location you can imagine. I just hope it will prove acoustically pleasing too. You can find all relevant details here.

• Amon Tobin will be performing on Wednesday, 4 May 2005, at Mean Fiddler in London. I would under no circumstances miss this if I’d be in the Capital of Mutilated Pigeon Cadavers & Dry Ginger Biscuits at the time. But alas, I’m stuck here in the wilderness of Helvetistan. Hmmmpf.

• Rumour has it that Aphex Twin has finally finished the 11th and last album of the Analord series (Rephlex). Let’s hope it’s true this time…

• The website monkey slaves in Foetus‘ basement just informed me that the fabulous new video for Blessed Evening – from the forthcoming Foetus studio album Love – can be finally viewed online.

• Ad Noiseam is celebrating its 4th birthday and updated its impressive catalogue with plenty of new releases and other precious things.

• From the always inspiring Spoilt Victorian Child mp3 blog comes this truly magic little gem:

Squarepusher’s version of Love Will Tear Us Apart
(via ollapodrida)

And now for something completely different… A BOX!

(Uhmm… thanks, Damien)

REASON No. 4327860198791 TO LOVE WARREN

“God Hates Me

Remember me.”

As always, Warren made the gods on his way to Toronto Comicon – where he will speak and sign tomorrow – pretty irate.

Please include him in your prayers drink a bottle of vodka in his honour tonight.

And I will also be away the next few days in order to find rotting smelly squirrel feet in the forest the Holy Grail.

See you next week.

…. oh, and please don’t hesitate to buy me this if you want to make me happy – or this if you want to spend a little more money.

Thank you.
