Bombing NY Issue V

It's been a few years since issue IV of Bombing NY came out. To make up for that, issue V takes the idea of documenting NYC street bombing further in every respect: It's bigger, more representative of what's happening on the street and the production value has been upped significantly. This is important to me, because in ten or twenty years, no one will look at Instagram posts from 2016, but I hope these books will still be in circulation. 

Issue V covers the period from around 2016 to 2018 and features hundreds of photos of dirty NYC graffiti, from throw-ups on shutters to blockbusters in iconic spots. Many of them have since been buffed or gone over. (Issue VI, out later this Spring, will feature 2019 photos.) There is a lot of graffiti here right now, and these past years have been marked by a gradual return of quality over quantity. You'll no doubt be able to guess many of the names in this book.

Bombing NY V is 6x9", 88 pages, perfect-bound and offset printed. The covers are screenprinted on custom stock. Each copy is numbered out of an edition of 500 and comes with two exclusive new Carnage logo stickers designed by POST VSOP. 

Available Wednesday, 4/15/20 at NOON EST in the store. Thank you for your support!

New release: (Working Title) by LEAD AOK

AVAILABLE FRIDAY, 2/2 at NOON ET!

(Working Title) by LEAD AOK collects five years worth of (mostly) Bay Area graffiti photography as captured by LEAD and friends. LEAD's focus is on illegal bombing and piecing and the book is packed with action shots of many modern kings of the game across all disciplines, including OS GEMEOS, TWIST, REMIO, NOAH, MIKE, ZOMBRA, S8N, ZEAM, PEAR, DUEL, MINE and many others as well as tributes to ORFN (RIP) and JADE (RIP). 

"During my time in San Francisco I have felt more inspired and energized than I have in a long time. The golden era here has passed, but the honesty in the streets of SF has not. I try to instill that honesty in what I do now. I hope that spirit is reflected in this book." 

Numbered edition of 250. Eighty pages, perfect-bound, full-color, 5.8"x8.25".

Each copy comes with a selection of 2-3 handdone (while supplies last) plus printed stickers, including a new Carnage sticker designed by LEAD.
