Your New Favourite Magazine

Over On the Radar there's been a link over to Chunklet Magazine's website. Well, the new issue is finaly out there (check here for a store near you). I'm never too sure if they only come out with two issues or three issues a year. Whatever it is it's certainly too few. This is a great and hilarious magazine. Possibly a bit elitist in it's views but that's part of it's charm to me--it can get to be a bit outlandish, but this especially suits they're ongoing The Most Overrated theme. Last issue's centerpiece dealt with the Most Overrated Bands with many laughs resulting. The new issue, Part 2, deals with the the most overated films/artists/etc--as well as interviews with most of the people I've written about on here for the past 3 months. Go figure...



You might also want to check out some clips from this movie Chunklet's some out with recently...



Click the pic -- there's a ton of clips there. It seems like it could be pretty funny--but part of me just can't get over how similar it is to Fred Armisan's 1998 SXSW video. Watch both of them! Compare and contrast the fun pranking of your favorite indie icons!
