‘Ello, Beastie

By Jordan Ginsberg • Dec 24th, 2008 • Category: ModBlog


Hey everybody, it’s the Christmas Kraken, popping in to offer some holiday advice! Take it away!

“Hi, folks — Christmas Kraken here. It’s the holiday season, and with all sorts of parties and get-togethers going on, it’s best that people be careful out there. If you’re drinking, please don’t drive, and if you’re driving, please make the change to Goodyear Snow Tires. Also, if you’re planning on attacking a ship and dragging every soul on board down to a watery grave, I’d recommend hitting the sails first. Holes in the body of a ship can take a while to fill with water, but nothing ruins a mariner’s day like getting his sails torn off.”

Thanks, Christmas Kraken! Merry Christmas!

(Tattoo by Marc at Swastika-Freakshop in Radolfzell, Germany.)

    I love how Swastika Freakshop’s work is always so immediately recognizable. I’m tempted to say they create the most beautiful and inspired work I’ve ever seen.

    [...] last time we checked in with the Christmas Kraken, he was looking a little bare, no? Well, Marc sure as hell took care of that. This is stunning. [...]
