- Text by Rod Stanley
Dazed travels to the furthest reaches of Earth to talk all-girl brass bands and kaleidoscopic explosions of colour with the two agent provocateurs behind one of 2007's most far-out collaborations.
Self-professed Satanist Kenneth Anger talks movies, magick and madness, as Dazed charts a chequered celluloid history that features cameos from the likes of Marianne Faithfull, Mick Jagger and Jimmy Page.
New York artist Rita Ackermann talks to Dazed about remaining a true original, and being an inspiration to countless young creatives, on the eve of her first British solo exhibition.
We head downtown to bring you the inside track on dance-rock quintet Foals, who spent the summer in New York recording their hotly anticipated debut album with legendary Brooklyn producer Dave Sitek.
The Back
Cult VIP: Robert Massin
A
pioneer of the printed aesthetic, a founding father of graphic art and
maverick contemporary of Jean Cocteau looks back on a life full of
radical ideas, printing on condoms and groundbreaking design ideas.
Q&A: Matthew Barney
Barney creates art that
is shocking, provocative and awe-inspiring in equal measure. The man
behind Cremaster Cycle talks exclusively to Dazed about pushing himself
to physical extremes, jelly sculptures and his new film project.

New York artist Diann
Bauer talks art and violence; new London zine Paperback makes the case
for Rauschenberg; and US artist Charlie Roberts turns his canvas into a
psychological museum.
Books: Bound & Flogged
Douglas
Coupland gets to grips with the daily grind; Chris Killen uncovers the
psychological severity of supermarket boredom; and retired nihilist
Graham Bendel releases two books deep-fried in hedonistic excess.
Film: Cut & Wrapped
Romanian director
Corneliu Porumboiu investigates the malleability of memory; Radar’s
upcoming video directors get ready for maximum exposure; and the Cuban
Revolution is explored in the Reissue of the lost classic Soy Cuba.

Breakers take the Parisian club scene to a whole new level with
signings Turzi and Sebastien Tellier; The Hood Internet bring the
