Some people like tot think of us journalists as zombie-like creatures writing articles in the dark, gruesome caves they call their apartments.
Light is to be shunned and coffee is a hard drug accepted by society. Hungry are the damned and this corner of the world delivers nothing but evil. Or at least some people say. In real life, hard work is considered a value and darkness is accepted as being something you absolutely need in order to work in so- mething of a fashion. Koen Schaaphok Thus concludes the epic tale that took place Editor-in-chief and notorious in order to bring you this month’s issue of labmonkey at Rebellious Inc. Rebellion Inc.
Was it nothing less but a nightmare? Yes. Do we feel excessively proud right now? Yes. Do we ever want to do this again? Hell yes! But as they say, good work pays off in the end and that’s exactly how I think we must all feel right now. Torn apart, but proud. What can we provide you with? An epic inter- view with Slipknot/Stone Sour vocalist Corey Taylor, a small guide towards the ultimate urban hoody, a summary of the heaviest kinds of heavy metal out there today,.. yes, the list goes on.
So forget everything we have gone through to bring you this and try to enjoy the issue. It would be a small sign towards us journalists as we prepare to brainstorm through the night thinking of what we can offer you next month.
Now dim the lights. 3

South Park is considered to be vile, politically incorrect and just plain rude. A lot of people have asked themselves how it’s even possible that a show like that evolved towards the peak of television history. We’ve put our research skills to the test and bring you the 4 reasons why South Park will forever remain the top critic of society!

Corey and I got along great. We both seemed to share the same vision of how one should act and interact within its environment. He also provided me with some great ideas for future issues. By the way, should he anytime soon come up with a great name for a new Slipknot-album, then he probably stole it from me. I tend to get a bit over-creative when I’m drunk. After all, what else was there to in Des Moines?
