The first Good Bad post.



These two are so awesome, I'm going to put up their photo even if I can't get it rotated the right way. I saw them on the way to Kensington Market and they were so great about having their picture taken. The way the colour palette and material choice unify their costumes is amazing. The shopping buggy is a bit of an X factor, but hey, at least it matches. The difference between good and bad here, is the purity of their expression and intent. Their message is appealing because it's convincing, without irony or self consciousness. Guys, wherever you are, thank you for being so goddamn cool.

Anti-Cimex, the band on the one dudes t-shirt is a punk rock group from Scandinavia. Scandinavia has no official geopolitical borders. The region is therefore often defined according to the political and cultural aims of different communities of the area. I thought that was fitting as guys like these are usually a dime a dozen. What really legitimizes these punks amongst a sea of studded leather is their lack of a Bluenotes purchased Ramones’ t-shirt.

Here is a link to a fan based myspace music page for Anti-Cimex.
