THE APRIL BLACKLIST

TEN CANE RUM
In 2005, Moet Hennesy decided to make the world’s best rum – or so goes the advertising backstory that’s
been created by some Maddison Avenue wide boys to populate the otherwise gaping hole in this brand’s
history when compared to the industry heavyweights like Havana Club and Barcardi. However, Moet have
actually given it a pretty good nudge, and as a result we can now announce it’s the favourite rum du jour
of the SKULL AND BONES. Pale, sweet, and incredibly drinkable, this is a refined rum for sophisticated
people who want to look cool. And then there’s us. It also has a cool Internet site with some swish
photography and a handful or random videos with voice overs in French

LOOP RECORDINGS
Yes Mikee, we all knew it was only a matter of time until you made it on here. This label may have a long
and checkered past, but you can’t argue with the fact that it’s still standing and publishing a host of some
of New Zealand’s best artists, such as Trinity Roots, Rhian Sheehan and now Coast. When the Bones is
looking for distinctly New Zealand music to use for soundtracks this is our first port of call. Keep up the
good work guys, you’re on your way from legend to icon

KALEIDOSCOPE TATTOO, BONDI
Most tattoo shops are pretty cool, but some are cooler than others. If you’re looking for some beautiful ink
done with attention to detail and a contemptuous disregard for your pain, and you’re in Sydney, then go
and check out Kaleidoscope in Bondi. The Boss just got some fresh stuff done here and he rates it. That’s
good enough for us and it should be good enough for you too

HARDEN UP THERMOGENICS
If you suffer from tiredness or lack of sleep and need energy, but don’t want the hassle that crack brings
from the police, gangsters or other undesirables, not to mention the suicide inducing come down, then
Harden Up Fatburn capsules are for you. Be warned though – they are not for the fainthearted. We
recommend them, in small doses, but accept no responsibility for any consequences whatever, such as
still being awake at 2.00 in the morning wondering why you can’t sleep. You can buy them here

GOOD ADVICE

Oscar Wilde once said, “I always pass on good advice. It’s the only thing to do with it.” How right he was. So here’s some from us

SKULL AND BONES ON FACEBOOK

THE PRIMARY SCHOOL EYE

We know you remember this one. For such a small gesture, it was always your passport out of big trouble. Instantly recognisable as meaning “No I mean the opposite or I don’t really mean that at all,” it allowed you to insult those who would otherwise have been untouchable with a reasonable level of imperviousness. We say it’s a mannerism whose time for a return is long overdue. “Mining the conservation estate is a GREAT idea.” “Michael Laws should probably live forever and be Mayor for Life.” And, “Yes Boss, it’s already done.” To which there is of course the reply, “That’s great, you’ve already been paid”

DRUM AND BASS

Ever since Floyd first arrived at the Bones, he’s been wanting to get this Drum and Bass noise on the Blacklist. So well done Floyd, you’ve finally succeeded. The track is by our friend Thomas Oliver. The video is what happens when the Boss goes home for the afternoon

WEIRD VIDEOS

We love them, although this one is a bit… weird. We were kind of expecting a happy ending, but no. You have been warned

PIMPING

Pimping is a dying art. Whoring, it’s most common and visible replacement, is not. But who’s going to manage all the sell outs, try hards, fakes and other whores if no one’s out in the game pimping it up? You can see the dilemma, and sadly it’s nationwide. That’s why we’ve put pimping up on the Blacklist. Style, presence and cutting wit are among the hallmarks of the position. Step forward the James Bonds of the world, and take your place. Your time is now.
