44 Shades of Black… Blackout Tattoos by Oddtattooer

Published

Blackout tattoos seem to be the new answer to all those years of accumulated tattoos that just don’t do it for you anymore. Easier than a traditional coverup, and they look better than the faded mess you gave yourself at age 16 with ballpoint pen ink. You can find a ton of examples of mottled, unattractive black blobs out there on the social web, but then there are artists like @oddtattooer, whose blackout work is an art unto itself and not just an easy coverup. Based at Oracle Tattoo in Singapore, Chester takes blackout work to a higher level of artistry, with clean lines, perfectly even coverage and stunning framing. Some of these images of his work have become emblematic of blackout tattoos since he posted them to his instagram. Check out some of his work below!

LA hardcore “S.O.H,” formed by members of Artificial Joy who are known for their split with SKITKLASS, have released their 1st album. BREAK THE RECORDS https://breaktherecords.bandcamp.com/ For some people, the songs already released are enough to feel a jolt of excitement. Their sound built on a variety of riffs, rhythms, and the impact of Kristine’s ever-changing vocals, make them a force not entirely defined by D-BEAT or FAST/POWER VIOLENCE. Their appetite to devour a variety of approaches to hardcore puts them at the pinnacle of the genre’s continuing evolution. Come check them out on tour in Japan during October 2024 and keep on eye on what will happen in the future. 1.Delirium 2.Walang Paglaya 3.All Heart 4.Cost To Live 5.Radiation 6.Prize Pig 7.Annihilate 8.Restless 9.Dead Anyway 10.Generation
SOH: DELIRIUM
