'Seeds Of Love' box set

My favorite Tears for Fears album is The Seeds of Love. I want to make a movie so I can use it as a soundtrack. A couple of factoids:

* The album was released in September 1989, entering the UK Album Chart at no.1 and would be certified Platinum by the BPI within three weeks.

* In the US, the album peaked at no.8, and was also certified Platinum.

Here's a previously unreleased version of their song Standing on the Corner of the Third World, taken off of the super deluxe edition of The Seeds of Love.

The four-CD+Blu-ray reissue (out October 9) includes 22 unreleased tracks from demo sessions, live jams, studio sessions along with a definitive set of B-sides, and rare mixes. If you're a fan of Roland and Curt, you'll probably want to add this box set to your Christmas wish list.

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

James DeRosso's ceramic monsters

I really like these whimsical ceramic creatures by James DeRosso. Yes, they have bulging eyes and toothy grins, but they're not scary at all. The Portland-based artist started making cute monsters while he was a student to jokingly create gargoyle-like guardians for the kiln. After other students kept taking his quirky little figures, he realized there was a market for them. "I'm enjoying the whole monster making niche," James says. "It's amazingly gratifying to be doing ceramics full time and especially to be a teacher introducing kids to the joy of clay." Be sure to visit his website and like his Facebook page for the latest monster news.

The Mystical World of Akiya Kageichi

Sometimes I go to tumblr, type in a random word or phrase and see what catches my eye. When I found Akiya Kageichi's blog and it began to load, my eyes were dazzled by the expertly rendered illustrations. They're mystical, chaotic, ominous and deliciously so. Well, never mind what I have to say, the work speaks for itself.
