KarmaloopTV and the resident Faded Streets crew hooked up for a pub crawl of epic proportions - rather than crawl and wobble through The Hub like a bunch'a pussies, The Filthy Faded grabbed their decks, donned all-white gear, and made a mission of becoming the dirtiest (literally and figuratively) motherfuckers in town.

Killing shit ensued... check out the video above, and vote for Faded as the best "Band of Buds" in the land!

... gets blogged right here!

Karmaloop raged through Las Vegas for the annual S.L.A.T.E./MAGIC trade show last week, and the highlight of the trip was definitely the epic bash at Haze nightclub.

We had family from Dirty Debutantes, VGB, Crooks & Castles, Flüd Watches, ®Society Original Products, Hellz Bellz and SneakTip in the building (if we forgot anyone, all apologies - we still can't remember how we even made it home), and with Statik Selecktah on the decks and the Jabbawockeez on stage, it was one hell of a fuckin' night!

Can't wait for next year's jam - in the meantime, we'll have these gems to remind us of the madness:

Big shouts to Hennessey Black, Haze Nightclub, Aria Hotel and of course Las Vegas and the lovely people who partied with us! Be sure to join us (or DIE) on Facebook to see even more flicks from the event, and check out the KarmaloopTV video below!

Brian Schroeder, a.k.a. Pushead, is not just another artist to us at The Blogs. Pushead is THE artist.

Our love affair with Pushead started in the fifth grade as just another skate brat elbowing for room at the local park with our Zorlac x Pushead Pirate One signature deck. Thanks in part to an unhealthy obsession with thrash metal and hardcore punk - namely Metallica and The Misfits, both of which frequently collaborated with Schroeder for album and tee shirt art - Pushead's art and music with his own band, Septic Death, was all we needed to properly piss off parents, teachers, police and all else who dared to diss us.

Quick fact: We started wearing all of our tees inside-out following a nasty confrontation with a math teacher who got us suspended for wearing a "grossly offensive" Pushead-designed tee (still have the school letter sent home with us, high comedy). Rather than trash it, we wore the tee (and just about every other since) inside-out until it was left in stained, smelly tatters.

Needless to say, we're fuckin' stoked to see the great tradition of corrupting young, impressionable minds continue with The Specimen Tee (below). The Altamont collaboration with Pushead features one of dude's signature skull n' bones designs, this time trapped for an eternity within the confines of a laboratory jar. Check it out below, and definitely stay on the look-out for more from Pushead and Altamont!

Port Arthur, Texas' Trill OG, the one and only Bun B, stopped by the IMKING booth at last week's S.L.A.T.E./MAGIC trade show in Las Vegas to show our homies some love. B is rocking the forthcoming Oscar fitted and the Beer Goggles sunglasses in this flick - definitely check back for both this fall!

Karmaloop represented all week at S.L.A.T.E. and we'll have more coverage than mom-jeans for you all throughout the week. Stay tuned!

The Blogs' future ex-wife Nicki Minaj rocked the hell out of the Joyrich Motor Vest in the video for DJ Khaled's "All I Do is Win" remix from a couple months back. While the video is better played on mute in our opinion, our girl slayed us a few times over with not only her jaw-dropping booty - er, beauty - but also with such gems as "You can talk slick all the way down to the welfare /Ask the I.R.S., bitch, I'm payin' for ya health care." Ouch - listening, Lil' Kim?

Unfortunately, the vest is as gone as Busta's dreads, T-Pain's gimmick, Diddy's alleged chin, Fabolous' career, and all of the plates at the buffet when Fat Joe, Khaled and Rick Ross show up (sorry, but we really don't like the song). However, you can check out the latest Joyrich drops for men here and for women here.

p.s. Happy Friday:

Dude must have an album coming out.

Surly ol' 50 Cent called into a Def Jam conference call with rapper Shyne recently, and... well, 50-ness ensues. But check out ORISUE's Kilburne S/S Buttondown that Curtis is rockin' throughout the call!

Karmaloop has the Kilburne and much, much more from the ORISUE Crew following it's drop last week - click here to check out the Fall 2010 collection.

COMUNE has introduced Peter Raffin to the brand's skate team.

Son Jose's finest has been tearing shit up for Osirus shoes, Black Label decks and Independent hardware before joining the COMUNE along with rippers Braydon Szafranski and Gareth Stehr. Check out some footage below, and get a closer look at COMUNE's Fall 2010 collection here.

Fucked Up formed in Toronto in 2002, high-school friends influenced by first- and second-wave hardcore bands like Minor Threat and NOFX. It was instantly apparent that they were not carbon-copy punks. Known by bizarre aliases, Fucked Up employ creative methods of spreading information & misinformation. Basic facts are constantly in flux. It is unclear how many of their 7"s have actually been released. Rumors about Fucked Up circulate like wildfire among their obsessive fans. The bottom line is that this band could only come out of hardcore, but they are now making music like no hardcore band in history. Though Fucked Up remain punks at heart - if quixotically diverse ones - they continue to create great, weird, heavy records that stubbornly stick in your brain and your heart.

- Altamont

Stay tuned, pals - Fucked Up is one of The Blogs' favorite bands out today and we'll have much more content coming your way throughout Altamont's campaign - in the meantime, check out some select videos:

"Dream Come True"

"Generation + Red"

"Crusades"

"Crooked Head"
