Banksy placed an interesting piece in the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Check out his “Cardinal Sin” sculpture.
“The piece, made in response to the child abuse scandals that the church seems to be known for these days, features a face taken off and replaced by blank bathroom tiles. Banksy noted in a statement, “I’m never sure who deserves to be put on a pedestal or crushed under one.” The sculpture sits next to religious works dated from the 17th Century.”

We’re all excited for a new Red Hot Chili Peppers album, if you’re not you may want omit yourself to a psych ward. While the group continues to be one of the most consistent bands in rock, new guitarist Josh Klinghoffer was the man behind the title. Klinghoffer explains to MTV News, “We thought of calling it a song title off the record, and when I mentioned that to [producer] Rick [Rubin], he said, ‘That just makes it seem like we don’t have enough ideas.” The groups voice Anthony Kiedis explained it best, “I started making lists of titles, and all of them, in retrospect, were quite lame, and none of them really captured the spirit of this record, which we had all very much fallen in love with. ”
