Inside the Levi's Tailor Shop, San Fransisco, US


San Fransisco is so lucky, cause Levi's Strauss & Co. has just launched their flaship store, the Levi's Tailor Shop there.

They have everything you need to customize, repair or alter your denim from embroidery machines, darning machines to a vintage Union Special chainstitch machine for those of you that want their jeans to be hemmed the right way.

It says that at the Levi's Tailor Shop you can also make your own buttons, choose vintage patches, screen print to fully customize your jeans

This is so F-ing cool.

OK Go - End Love (Official Video)

OK GO's third single from the Of the Blue Colour of the Sky album
check out this insanely (as usual from OK Go) awesome video.

Brandon Boyd - "Runaway Train" (single)

In anticipation of his upcoming solo album The Wild Trapeze (up on sale at July 6th 2010), Incubus's frontman, Brandon Boyd has released his official video for his new single “Runaway Train”.



"Following their last album ‘Light Grenades’, the band each took a brief period of time to explore their own interests. A prolific artist, Brandon began plucking away on an acoustic guitar and it organically evolved into this 10 track album. The album comes on the heels of 2 poetry books that Brandon has released in recent years. Most of the instruments were played by Brandon himself. "

Can't wait!
