Custom Nike Shoes from Alkaline Trio

alkalinetrionikeshoe.jpgAs if releasing their new album “Agony and Irony” on July 1st isn’t enough for Alkaline Trio, they’ll also be debuting a customized pair of Nike skate shoes aptly named The Heart and Sole Air Zoom Cush. The shoes will be exclusively debuted in Huntington Beach on June 27th, but folks nationwide can expect to see the shoes July 11th.

You can look forward to a red and black color scheme complete with customized details such as reflectors and bike-inspired graphics. Of course, the Alkaline Trio logo will be prominent on these shoes.

Check out a picture of the shoe to the left of this post. What do you think? Too much? Would you buy it? Do you absolutely love it? I want to hear your thoughts!

Much to my pleasant surprise, I discovered that “Sorry Simon” had a music video! It’s interesting - and definitely worth a look.

Check out the video below and let me know what you think!

Stay true,

Denise

Check Out The Zomboys

guiatr.jpgFor a taste of honest punk rock, you definitely need to check out California four-piece The Zomboys.

They are unapologetic, honest and real - and their music is pretty good, too. According to their Myspace, they’ve played alongside some pretty rad bands, including Drastic Actions and Oi Boys, among others.

They’ve got five songs up right now, so what are you waiting for? GO LISTEN!

Stay true,

Denise
