Sitting in a dark room, thinking of making the greatest decisions was never this easy. I have put up with so much of issues in the past, hoping I would not have to go through it in 2012, but it seems, I am always surrounded by negativity. There was a time, where negativity helped me grow as an individual but, it came to a breaking point where I can no longer handle it and it has somewhat consumed me.

Should I make that change to make others happy, or should I make that decision that would make me happy? I am sick and tired of pain being represented in many forms, in the forms which I wished it did not. To be very honest, I am afraid to stand up for myself now. I feel weak and scared and living in constant fear and threats that would harm me and my life as I go by...

There was never a day which I never wished that things would get better, but I realized, it was only a wishful thinking. Nothing great is going to come out of it, especially when I am accused over and over and over for something I did not even commit. Yes, we all do mistakes. We are only humans, and humans do err. Life is very demanding and I can no longer go through with it.

Yes, I want to break free from this emotional impalement. I can no longer hide behind the tears of a clown. I am in a very confused state, thinking and pondering of what should I do about it. No alcohol or temporary happiness is going to make things go away. I am being judged for who I was, but not for who I am. No one understands my torment and no one can read my inner thoughts. I don't know if I believe in patience anymore, I don't know if I even believe in my own existence in this cruel World, that I walk on.

Adapting to nature is not an easy task, neither is putting on a smile, a mask, to hide from Society. I need an escape, an escape that would let me be a free soul, to do what makes me feel contented in what I do. I was a firm believer of not bowing down to another person's need, but I guess, its not easy being a King. I deserted my own Kingdom which I built from scratch for the happiness of the people around me, but there is no appreciation or gratitude. We all are born with a dream, a goal and I did too. Whatever I have worked for, or the mess I put myself into, as an individual, was never a beneficiary movement for my own gain, but for the people I love. But, look at me now....

If there is God, I would love to meet Him. I would probably even make an offer to Him, in which even He, cannot refuse. To be his slave in service, in return for Freedom from this Filthy Society. - Absinthe Diaries, DiamondFangs, 2012 -

Gentle Reminder

2011-12-01T12:29:00.002+08:00

A Gentle Reminder to whom it may concern :

It has come to my attention that some of you have been trying to replicate the ideas, concept or image of "Diamond Fangs" the character, and make it your own. Which also includes of publicizing it in a way for your own Fame and Glory. I am sorry to inform you that, I am not here to let some of you to do as you please in anyway, replicating the ideology of "Diamond Fangs" in ANY FORM.

First, there were fake websites of Immortal Tattoos, Singapore, containing my works. Then, there were idiots running around posing as "Diamond Fangs", anonymously on the internet, using my pictures. But now, you dress up like me and make money out of it through different media that could be accessed by the public, to make your monkey-ass Famous? Well, Fuck You !!

There can be only one psycho in this Visual Artistry, let it be through Tattoos, Photography Artwork or even in any form of literature , and that is me. I would not let you morons run the show and steal the limelight from me. I understand its been awhile since I did much, but least show some fucking respect.

You know who you are - And you have just fucking pissed me off, so be prepared to experience Hell...

Your Nightmare,
Diamond Fangs.

With that said, here is something for the fans of both the Xbox 360 and Immortal Tattoos, Singapore.

The Death of DF - Explained

2010-11-08T15:32:00.001+08:00

Ladies and Gentlemen, My name is Kugan. Founder/Visual Artist of Immortal Tattoos, Singapore. I have been in the Tattoo Artistry for about close to 5 years and have been doing Photography for about close to 4 years.

That is all about me, as Diamond Fangs, my alter ego takes most of the credit and Immortal Tattoos is what it is today, because of him.

Many of you have heard about Diamond Fangs and few lucky ones, have been inked and have mingled with him. To the unlucky ones, you have seen and have experienced Diamond Fangs at full blown, taking the plunge with him, with hands tied. Not forgetting, setting yourself on fire while at it. Well, that is Diamond Fangs for you.

Who is Diamond Fangs?

Well, Diamond Fangs is the egoisitc, psychotic, chaotic, delusion, alcoholic, blood letting, attention seeking, boundary pushing, head banging, fearless, violent, sexual, nuerotic, aggressive, controversial, manic- depressive, schizophrenic, hallucinating, absinthe-abusing, hell bound, suicidal and self sacrificing alter ego of Kugan.

-How did Diamond Fangs come about?-

Well, Diamond Fangs has been living inside me for the longest time I could remember. I came up with the name Diamond Fangs in regards to Vampyrism - A sub culture in which I have been in for like 12 odd years and was active until 6 years ago. When I mean Vampyrism, I don't mean the Goth Lifestyle with make ups and all that fancy PVC clothings. Vampyrism is a Lifestyle, a different understanding to what we see and feel and living life with a twist. I would not elaborate on that, because I am here to open up more on "Diamond Fangs".

Diamond Fangs is the more flashier and loud persona of what I am as a person. Not knowing that He will somewhat take over my conscious and He went further than what I could have imagined.

-Diamond Fangs Vs Kugan. How do you juggle both?-

Thank God, ( Ya right !! ) that I didn't lose myself completely to Diamond Fangs and I was still able to hold back. Of course it was not something easy for me. I will never know when would the persona of Diamond Fangs would take control of my body and do what he does. There has been many scary moments when that happened in which, at most times, I won't have any memory or what so ever of what actually happened.

Some would say I was suffering from some kind of mental instability, but I beg to differ. I am a firm believer to an extend to say that, what we are now, we are just a shell. Sometimes, more than one being (souls) can share a shell (body) - As long it does no harm to anyone else, ( The Law says so) then everything is fine.

When it comes to pushing limits and being straight forward, I can't do that. I am shy by nature. Even without realizing, Diamond Fangs would always come to my rescue. Most of my works I have done through Tattooing, Body Suspensions or Photography, I would give credit to Diamond Fangs. He was that one guy who had the balls to go out there and get things done.

-Why did you decide that its time to end Diamond Fangs?-

I guess, sometimes you have to let go of things that you once cared for or worked for to see where you stand in that period of time. Its a sacrifice which I made. Diamond Fangs has pissed alot of people off. Diamond Fangs could possibly be Singapore's most hated artist for all I know. But He did'nt give a fuck and still did his thing. Events, Projects, Promotions and Live Demostration were all him and Not forgetting the "soap opera" that put Immortal Tattoos, Singapore in the check list. Diamond Fangs was a one man army - He was literally an artwork on His own -

And what is more greater than to sacrifice which you build in your head and let thousands experience that over the years? I sacrificed Diamond Fangs as a being, for Art. Its time for Him to go.

-Did you plan for the Death of Diamond Fangs?-

Nope. I knew the time was right, when it was just days before Halloween 2010. You see, there was an event held by Immortal Tattoos, Singapore called -XVI- which pushed Diamond Fangs a step further. Putting His name in the line against the Devil. It was a bet, a deal made between the two about a year ago. If Diamond Fangs failed to fulfil the Devil's request, Diamond Fangs would serve the Devil in Hell, forever. -XVI- was an event in which Diamond Fangs has to find 66 Sinners and ink them, but, He Failed.

Diamond Fangs was a man who keeps his words. I am very sure, if someone else were to put their "career" on their line for one of their projects, they will lie and cheat their way through just to be on top. Diamond Fangs took failure like a Champion. May His soul never rest in Peace and I am pretty sure, He will haunt a few of you out there who is reading this.

-Do you think Immortal Tattoos, Singapore would be affected after the Death of Diamond Fangs?-

Well, like I said. Diamond Fangs has made a name for Himself and made Immortal Tattoos, Singapore, reputable. I got no issues how things are going to be from now on. We still have our clients, our models and our friends and not forgetting our "fans" who have helped me over the years through the struggles I had.

It might be a chapter closed for Diamond Fangs, but a new chapter has opened for Kugan.

-Since, Diamond Fangs is gone. Are you thinking of carrying on another Persona?-

Diamond Fangs was a Legend. No one can take over his place. He made so much sacrifices and I don't think I can deal with another persona. Mentally and Physically I am drained out struggling with Diamond Fangs. I do feel better as a person after all these. So, no. There won't be another persona.

-What do you have planned for the future for Immortal Tattoos, Singapore?-

Right now, I am just inking in my studio. I won't be doing much events or such for sometime. I guess, I am taking a break from the "drama" after all these years. But, if I do have something planned out for my studio, do check out my site - http://Immortal-Tattoos.blogspot.com/ now and then for updates.

-Any last words you want to share with our readers?-

We all live once, live life to the fullest with no regrets. Do what to want and don't be disheartened by failure. And ya, Don't abuse Alcohol...~smiles~

Death of Fangs

2010-10-31T06:36:00.000+08:00

DiamondFangs passed away this morning on 31st October 2010 @ 06:06am. He left a suicide note saying the Demon has come to take him away. He will be greatly missed by his friends and his Sinners who got inked by him. Immortal Tattoos, Singapore will now be taken over by Kugan.

-For tattoo appointments, please EMAIL - tattoos@diamondfangs.com
-MSN only for Kugan - Kugan@diamondfangs.com
-MSN/EMAIL for female models - Models@diamondfangs.com

(for more works of Kugan, pls look at immortal-tattoos.blogspot.com)

His final Note :

Dear World,

I am not some psychotic fuck or pathetic loser trying to end my torturous existence. I am not one of those faggots, using suicide as a cry for help. I have a very good reason.

I am not drunk, upset or lonely. I am not doing this to protest against anything. I tried to adapt in this scorched World that is filled with nothing but lies. But, The Demon has come to claim what is his.

I lost my bet with The Devil Himself. I told him I would sacrifice Sinners to fulfill his hunger but I was too late. I failed and I will take it like a champion.

I am at the top of the mountain pissing down on the rest of you. Unfortunately, the days ahead of me will never be as good as tonight. So I have nothing to look forward to.

I have done what I had to in the past and I have no regrets today as I write this note. I will surrender to The Devil and face whatever punishment that will be placed on me, while in Hell.

It is truly the best night that could and will ever be, which is why my life must end tonight. Life can now only get worse. Nothing is left for me here in this horrid World.

-Diamond Fangs-

P.S. Tell everyone I'm not psychotic.

Due to some unforeseen circumstances, Immortal Tattoos (Singapore) will be now be solely ran by Diamond Fangs (Kugan). All agents or employees, working on behalf of Immortal Tattoos (Singapore), will no longer will be part of it. A law suit will be filed against canvases, models, and all other participating parties who did not fulfill assignments arranged by Immortal Tattoos (Singapore).

Reason of doing so is that I made some losses from Canvases and models came up with excuses and left with unfinished work to complete my event on time. Model ambassadors revealed trade secrets to 3rd party which jeopardizes my future projects.

From now on, as of June 14th 2010, all future or on going projects will be handle strictly by me, Diamond Fangs (Kugan).

All present and future models and canvases will ONLY interact directly with me...

Add me on MSN : Diamond_Fangs@hotmail.com or email Immortal_Tattoos@mail.com for any questions.

PLS NOTE :

Those canvases or models who got inked by me and came up with excuses, please be advised you were given more than enough time to settle whatever you have to.

I will publicly announce your names through any necessary media if you still fail to fulfill your assignments or settle your payments after receiving this message.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused but I think you ( irresponsible canvases and models) have caused more inconvenience.

Thank You.

Sinner #9 and Fake websites

2010-03-22T20:02:00.003+08:00

Hi again everyone....

Thousand apologies to the frequent visitors who come in here regularly and only to be disappointed by the lack of updates since the last time. 2010 has been a very slow year for Immortal Tattoos, Singapore and to add more pressure on us, there have been at least 3 FAKE blogspots carrying the works done by us. All of which is from some Indonesian guy/girl/faggot who has lots of free time in his/her/its hands.

Legal action to close down the fake sites is on the way and hopefully it will be over and done with soon. I am pretty sure that Indonesian guy/girl/faggot will be reading this. And I would like to say, "Just don't let me find out where exactly you are, cuz if I do, I will rip you apart."

Moving along from there, I have been very lazy doing new projects as well. But fret not !! I am back and I need more Sinners !! -XVI- is still ongoing, so boys and girls, get your Ink on !!

To spice things up even more, Immortal Tattoos, Singapore, will be doing tattoos at NO COST to One Lucky Male and One Lucky Female EVERY MONTH !! - Limited to 20CM x 15CM in Size- So, if you are interested - EMAIL US !! But of cuz, please note that only Great Designs or Ideas will be chosen.

And here is another update of of my Sinner...

Absinthe Garden - Goth Art Exhibit

2009-10-17T16:14:00.007+08:00

Good Day, Boys and Girls. I know its been a long time since my last update. As usual I have not been having much time to upload my works and rant about issues.

First of I would like to say, I got my Photographic Artworks displayed in an art exhibition in DXO, Singapore. Special thanks to the Lique Vanique of Singapore Dark Alternative Movement ( http://www.sdam.sg/ ) who made it possible.

It was a Goth Art Exhibit, called Absinthe Garden and speaking of which, how can I not have Absinthe before heading down to the exhibition ?!

Lovely Isn't it?

Mumzie, a latest addition to the crew, prepares the Absinthe, Ritualistically.

Hmmmm...Enjoy the moments

Loaded up on Absinthe and here we Go !!

Mumzie, Lique Vanique and Myself

....Boo !!....

Photography By Sushikin - That is why she is not in the pictures. :P

These are the 3 Photographic Artworks that was on Display for Absinthe Garden on October 16th 2009 @ DXO

Boys and Girls,

I know I have been slow on updating my works, including the ones from -XVI- the ongoing event.

I have too many things going on in my head and its been hard for me to concentrate but I still try. Its like, I am already am living in hell in reality. I don't know if the idea of my event has become real or that my mind has engulfed me and over took my senses...

Things around me seems to mess me up and shut me down. Sometimes I don't even know what I am thinking about or even going through. I have been having memory lost and seems like I am losing my grip on my life...

I really need to find my 66 Sinners and finish this event up. Honestly, now I know why they say, "Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it".....

PS: This event is held in Singapore only.

Once upon an infernal time,
Existed a circus created by hell’s own grime
The circus bred freaks that thrived on pain,
Thereby giving it, its sordid name.

In the carnival of pain, lived a freak,
Whose daily pain made the guillotine seem meek.
Diamond fangs, the condemned called him,
The Grand Meister, of the Carnival of eternal Sin
And the pain he felt, he transferred to ink,
With which he marked bodies till raw and pink.

This blasphemy provoked higher beings,
Till even God deferred; and the Devil Intervened.
Black, angry and searing pains he felt,
Of kinds which make hardest stones melt,

Voices of those past inked, echoed painfully
Right through Diamond Fang’s head; throbbing violently.
The creature thought, for sure he’ll explode,
For minions of hell destroyed his abode.
Scorched his eyes, and flayed his body
Until his tainted soul was ripped all bloody.

Thus when he was about to break,
The visions cleared and a voice thus spake,
From its high throne of gory splendor,
Said the Devil with glistening evil ardor,

“You’ve breached the codes of heaven and hell,
For this torrid sin, repent you shall.
66 irredeemable sinners you must find,
And mark them with the ink of thine,
Then only will your soul mend,
And back to your Carnival, you may tend.

Break me this chain of human sacrifice,
And your soul can never survive
So go forth my insolent son,
your quest of 66 sinners has now begun".

Work on done on Nicci Di !! Woooot !!

Live Bait 2009

2009-05-06T13:24:00.005+08:00

Finally, Here I am, with my updates !! A month or so has passed and I guess I am finally ready to tell the World on the things I went through while I was on the Blood, Sex & Ink Tour that took place in Melbourne, Australia !! 22nd March 2009 - 12th April 2009...

To begin with, the experiences I had when I was there, has changed me into someone whom I never thought I would be. Most of you would know who Ms.Kim is and most of you would also know that she and I were seeing each other for quite some time. Not until I got a call on April 1st 2009....

Ladies & Gentlemen, Lovely Ms.Kim and I, are no longer together. Chains of events have made her leave me for someone else, while I was in Melbourne. It was heartbreaking news to me, being more than 3000 miles away from her, there was nothing I could do to save the relationship, which I pretty much treasured alot.

It was not easy for me to carry on my usual routines after hearing the news. I wanted to come back to Singapore, the very next day, hoping she would change her mind. I was emotionally impaled and left to die...literally !!

Thanks to my good friends and the ever beautiful, Absinthe - I managed to survive and carried on with what I came to do. I told myself, "I am not gonna let a Heartbreak ruin the Tour". I didn't fly over 3000 miles, just to go back home being hurt. Fuck that !!

Show must go on regardless what happens, Boys and Girls !! - Even though I am not over what happened. -

Let me take you all to Live Bait Event which took place on March 28th 2009, organized by The Hanged Man Team, Melbourne. Thanks Pete and the whole crew for making my dream come true !!

Marking the spots...

You just gotta Love it !!

Beautiful Hooks...( And I lost those Hooks !! )

Was briefed on what to expect....

Get the rigs on, Boys!!

Moments before being Suspended...

Getting Psyched Up....

What we've got here? I am Flying !!

Rock On !! Let the Devils OUT !!

I felt so good...

Since, I was having so much fun, I decided to lift Nicci up with me.

Nicci holding on...

Up we go !! Woooot !!

Thank You Nicci for going up with me.. I will love you for this !!

I was having too much fun and I had to come down anyway... Wish I could have stayed up there for few more "DAYS"... hahaha !!

Right up to the roof !!

Nicci checking me out... :P

The most amazing person ever, Nicci... -Thank you for being there and helping me out.-

Nicci and Candy... The Ladies got hooked.. Hahaha !!

Time to take off the hooks...

Squeezing out the bubbles.. OOooo

Patch Em Up

The Hanged Man Team !! Love ya guys !!

I had the best time of my life going through such a great experience. I was pretty much sore the next 2 days but if you ask me if I would do it again? Hell Yeah !! I would never miss it for anything.

I will be updating the work I did on Nicci in a few days or so...

I would like to thank Nicci again, for being such an amazing person. I love ya, babe !! Thank you for all your help even though we didn't get to go out much. I like to thank The Hanged Man team again for making it possible for me. I like to thank all my clients who trusted me to put my works on them. I finally like to thank Jack Daniels and Absinthe for making me go through the nights I wish I didn't live...

It was both a good and bad experience. I did lose the one person I ever loved and cared for but, I also found many others, who love and care for me now. Even though time will heal all wounds, memories will always haunt me...

I do wish Ms.Kim all the best and hope she finds happiness in the "other" party...You will always be remembered.

I am back with an Absinthe Addiction, Hunger for Success and with a New Fucking Lifestyle - To ROCK the World !! Put on your safety belts.. I will take you all for a ride -Winks-

Until next time...

Check out Jan 10 Post !!

Vine Tattoo Leg

2008-09-21T15:11:00.002+08:00

The ever increasing trend now, seems to be catching on. Without a doubt, limits are pushed to move this "styled" tattoo in bigger scales than what it was, originally.

Due to the increasing popularity of this tattoo, I will control the number of people getting it done, so as to, it will not become too common in time to come. Therefore, I will push the limits even further by doing various variations in accordance to this style !!

I guess I owe the "Lovely Ms.Kim" a kiss, for the inspiration tothe many out there!! Woo hoo !!

Violin's Tattoo

2008-09-20T11:22:00.004+08:00

Due to the recent popularity, ( Which was done on the 2nd Event of Immortal Nite @ Chillies) I had a request from my friend Violin, to do something similar on a bigger scale.

Enoy it !!

What a Phrase?!

2008-06-19T11:38:00.000+08:00

A tattoo which I did for my customer today, made me understand of how comical life can be in its own way. It made me realise of how simple life is.

A beautiful tattoo which not many would prefer it on their body. A statement which differs you from the rest. Well, it is for life - So might as well, live with it !!

Demon

Feel the wrath !! Another random Demon tattoo.

Tribal Chest

2008-06-02T14:08:00.000+08:00

Had a customer walk in today to get something around the tribal dragon which he already had. So I created something for him and did what I was suppose to do.

He left with a big smile on his face. Another satisfied customer at Immortal Tattoos, Singapore !!

Skull Over Scars

2008-05-23T13:46:00.000+08:00

I had my friend Naren come in today, wanting to get something to cover up the scars he had on his inner forearm region. What better thing to do over the scars? A skull of course !!

The skull image is used in several religious cultures. The Indian god Kali is pictured with skulls in her wrathful form. Within the Kabbalistic tree of life, the skull symbolizes not death but rebirth, and is a celebration, not mournful time.

In Day of the Dead celebrations in Mexico, the skull is a reminder of death, but it reminds people that while death is a misfortune, it can also be seen as “the ultimate liberation.”

Gamblers enjoy using the skull as a “reverse bad luck” charm, hoping it will bring them good fortune. When used by gamblers, it is often accompanied by black cats and dice rolling seven.

Not all meanings are positive, however. The Nazi SS used the death’s head as a symbol, and many neo-Nazis still use the symbol in tattoos to this day.

Sun Tattoos

2008-05-12T13:54:00.000+08:00

The sun plays in an important role in many cultures. Several prominent early civilizations were involved in worshiping the Sun - such as the Romans, the Egyptians, the Aztecs and the Incas. While other cultures also paid homage to the sun, in these specific areas, the Sun was their highest god.

In Rome, the sun god was Apollo. He was thought to bring the sun each morning in a chariot across the sky. He also was considered to be the god of healing and arts.

In Egypt, the god Ra was in charge of the sun. Ancient Egyptians believed that Ra went through various transformations throughout the day, just as the sun did. He was the most important of all of the Egyptian gods, and pharohs from the fifth dynasty forward took the title "Son of Ra".

In Aztec culture, Huitzilopochtli was the god of sun and war. The patron deity of the Aztecs, it was said that he was supposed to guide the Aztecs to a promised land in the south. Human sacrifices were at one time made to this god in hopes of winning wars.

The rich mythology surrounding the sun means there is a wealth of different tattoo styles that can be found depicting its image. Many choose to get the sun and moon depicted together, as they are complimentary and, in some cultures, symbolize male and female power.

Others choose the blocky, tribal style of Aztec suns. The sun can also be a symbol of rebirth, so some people choose to combine it with other imagery such as Celtic Knots and Stars. The light and dark, good and evil symbolism are also a reason that people are so drawn to these tattoos.

New School Swallow

2008-04-23T14:06:00.002+08:00

Swallow tattoos once common among sailors years ago now seem to have been rediscovered and transformed into a new school style of tattoo. It is not uncommon to see some retro chick with swallow tattoos emblazoned across the chest, abdomen or even on the arms.

Sailors would have swallows tattooed as a sort of metaphor for finding their way, because the legend goes that if you were ever lost at sea if you saw a swallow you could follow it home. There are different versions of why people get swallows and can also mean a person has done time in prison or 'bird'.

Swallow tattoos seem to be popular with those into Rockabilly and are usually tattooed on either side of the neck for guys or across the chest or abdomen for chicks. The most famous person with this style of tattoo is Marc Almond of SoftCell fame a British group popular in the 80's and early 90's.

The traditional tattoo means: A sailor gets a set of swallows on his chest. The story goes if he or she drowns, the swallows come down and lift his soul to the heavens.

2008-03-14T19:25:00.003+08:00

My long time customer who is in progress of completing her blackwork sleeve, came in today to do another potion. I was given the green light to do what I feel like and that is every tattoo artist's dream come true.

Most times, its the customers who want to have certain kind of design on them, but on rare occasions, the tattoo artist gets to choose and do something they feel which is right for that individual.

I decided to mix 2 flavours into one - Polynesian and a Mandala to signify "wholeness" and used for ritual purposes.

Even though their beginnings may be linked to specific religious purposes, mandalas are popular with tattoo connoiseurs of all faiths.

I modified the Dharma Wheel: the eight hubs are a symbol of the Eightfold Path*, leading to perfection -

1. Right Belief

2. Right Resolution

3. Right Speech

4. Right Action

5. Right Living

6. Right Effort

7. Right Thinking

8. Peace of Mind through Meditation

Mandalas are particularly popular in henna tattoos. By definition, a mandala is any one of a variety of geometric designs that symobilize the universe. These designs are ritualistically used by Hindi and Buddist during to aid in meditation.

Psycroptic

What better way is there to spend in Van Diemen's Land other than gettin wasted? Haha !! Well you get more wasted than ever with Cameron Grant - Bassist of Death Metal Band - PSYCROPTIC !!

Ladies and Gentlemen, and to the many who don't know who or what Psycroptic is, well you don't know what you are missing.

Psycroptic was formed in 1999 and immediately set out to create their own style of darkened death metal. Consisting of originally of Cameron Grant (bass), Joe Haley (guitars), Matthew Chalk (vocals) and David Haley (drums), the four came together after the bands they had played in disbanded.

However in 2005 , ongoing disharmony and tensions resulted in the rest of the band asking Matthew to leave in March 2005. In April 2005, Jason Peppiatt (Vocals) was asked to join Psycroptic.

Close to 8 yrs now, Psycroptic has performed and toured with Deeds of Flesh, Dismember, Cannibal Corpse, Kataklysm, Nile and Deicide.

Look how wasted I am. I can't even throw the horns properly. Haha !!

I wish Psycroptic a bright future and will have full support of Immortal Tattoos, Singapore. You rock !!

Boys and girls who are into death metal bands - Your collection is not over until you get Psycroptic !! They are the Metal from the Isle !! Go get their CDs or merchandize now !!

By the way Cam, I know you are reading this. When I come back, I am gonna ink you either way, even if you don't know what you want to get.

MAY THE LORD HAVE MERCY ON YOU !! haha !! ROCK ON !!

Sick and Tired

2008-02-15T10:45:00.002+08:00

Hello all !!

Yet again, its been some time since I updated this blog. It has been a rough ride ever since I came back to Singapore. Lots have been going on and its just making me sick and tired.

There have been rumours and tall-tales about me going around in cyberland and the real world. Its like, I am being watched, of what I do in my personal life. Why can't those people give me a break?! There are some, whom I might not know, are just dying to tarnish my name. Isn't it funny when ; whatever I do actually, does not concern them and yet, they use my name just so they feel good? They do need to get a fucking life and mind their own business.

Its true that many people do know me and its work's nature to be interactive with them. There are some who just piss me off, well just tough luck. Sometimes, I wonder why its bad to be nice.

To all those who wanna mess me up and spread rumours about what I am like or what I have done, I got something to say - "Even if I were to be shaking hands with Jack the Ripper or riding with Kid Rock or getting laid with X-tina, it is not your god damn business. If you want to make it your business, come face to face, meet eye to eye and tell me. I ain't running away. I am happy at what I do and I am loving it."

Make it simpler for the "Paparazzi-Wannabes" - I am the Rockstar !! Just shadow me in my public and personal activities. Bring it on!! -Wink -

Another tattoo done in Van Diemen's Land. It was a modification to the original design....

Ned Kelly

2008-02-05T12:19:00.000+08:00

The very first tattoo done in Van Diemen's Land, is none other than a tattoo of Ned Kelly. I know many people don't know who Ned Kelly is. Even I had no clue who he was, until I was told that he was the Australian Bushranger - The Australian Iron Outlaw. In other words, boys and girls ; He was the real Australian Gangster !!

Edward "Ned" Kelly (January 1855 – November 1880) is Australia's most infamous bushranger and, to many, a folk hero his defiance of the colonial authorities. Ned Kelly was born near Cragieburn, now in north suburban Melbourne to an Irish convict father, and as a young man he clashed with the police. Following an incident at his home, police parties went in search of him. After killing three policemen, he and his gang were proclaimed outlaws. A final violent confrontation with police at Glenrowan, with Kelly dressed in home-made plate metal armour and helmet, led to his capture and trial. He was executed by hanging at Melbourne Gaol in 1880. His daring and notoriety made him an iconic figure in Australian history, folk lore, literature, art and film.

Ned Kelly survived to stand trial, and was sentenced to death by the Irish-born judge Sir Redmon Barry. This is case was extraordinary in that there were exchanges between the prisoner Kelly and the judge, and the case has been the subject of attention by historians and lawyers (see Philips). When the judge uttered the customary words "May God have mercy on your soul", Ned is reported to have replied "I will go a little further than that, and say I will see you there when I go". He was hanged on 11 November at the Melbourne Gaol by Elijah Upjohn. Although two newspapers (The Age and The Herald) reported Kelly's last words as "Such is life" and two other newspapers as "Ah well, I suppose it has come to this. Such is life", another source, Ned Kelly's gaol warden, writes in his diary that when Kelly was prompted to say his last words, he (Kelly) opened his mouth and mumbled something that he couldn't hear—and since the warden's office is closer to the scene of the hanging than the witnesses' allotted space, Ned Kelly's last words actually remain uncertain. Sir Redmond Barry died of the effects of a carbuncle on his neck on 23 November 1880, twelve days after Kelly.

Thank You, Gavin & Bron

I would like to take this time and chance to dedicate this piece of blog to Gavin & Bron...

I would like to say, thank you so much for giving me the opportunity to come over and experience the lifestyle and culture that happens in Tasmania. Its funny how we even got to know each other, and like they say - Bad things happen for good reasons. I am very honoured and happy to have you guys around. I thank you for your hospitality and comfort given to me over the days I was there. You guys really took good care of me and I am very touched by it.

For you to invite me over was a big thing, putting a trust in me, not knowing what kind of person I could be, was a bigger thing. I never had so much fun, never had so much of calmness in my soul and peacefulness in my mind. I felt safe, guys. It something which I never felt in my whole life. Sad, but its true. No matter how much I say "Thank You", its never enough for what you guys have given me or shown me during my stay.

I am dedicating this piece for you both and telling you that you guys mean alot to me. This is no bullshit. Let me tell the whole world that - You guys, rock my world !!

Like Gavin said, We will mates forever even though we are world apart...

I would never forget you guys and want you guys to know that I am here for you guys when you come to Singapore. Always....

Me and Gavin - Rockin in Van Diemen's Land !!

Bron and Me - Lookin Lovely ain't you bron? Haha !!

Me with 2 of the world best mates I have. Forever !!

I was close to tears when I said good bye to both of you at the airport. I know I sound emotional, but its true. Now everyone is gonna make fun of me when they read this..haha !! I miss the whole bunch. But fret not, I will be making a comeback !! Van Diemen's Land, will never be the same again !!

What a Day...

2008-02-03T17:13:00.000+08:00

Hello everyone !!

Sorry for my long absence. To some who have known, Immortal Tattoos was on tour to Van Diemen's Land - Tasmania !!

I am now finally back to the fast paced and noisy land, where everyone seems to be in a rush, and god knows why. One piece of advice to everyone who is new to my blog and to the those who keep track over the months, - Watch and Learn from the boys from Van Diemen's Land. They rock !!

Before I go on about my tour, I would wish to share something.

I was back to my studio today, and I should say, it was not a warm welcome.

Few months back, I had a customer who refused to pay after getting a tattoo by me and I had to call the cops on him. Seems like the cops can't do anything about it as it was between "retailer and customer" issue. Full of shit if you ask me. Anyway, the guy ended up paying and left.

And of all days, he returned yesterday and asked me to retouch his tattoos for him. Well obviously I refused to, and he got pissed and shouted vulgarities at me. After all the peace and quietness, some jackass have to piss me off. There was some confrontation between me and him, verbally that is, and he ran out of the shop and called me out for a fight. When I asked him to come back in, he just took off. What a pussy he was !!

And some other guy I tattooed many months back as well, who is known to be in prison now, was bragging to his cell mates about how he wanted to beat me up and break my shop. And he went on saying to some other guy that my tattoos are expensive and that I am arrogant.

A note to the jail bird - "Well if you are reading this, probably you are illiterate ( If you know what that means ), so it doesn't matter. You can ask your "friends" to translate it for you. But wait ; are they not as dumb as you? Let me tell you something. This is Singapore, my low lifed friend. You can brag to your cell mates anything you want, but your the one serving time in prison, selling your ass for some cash to buy drugs when you are out. So, try harder next time. If you think my tattoos are expensive, don't do it, cause your too cheap to be tattooed anyway."

Sure is fast paced back in Singapore - Pretty FULL-ON boys !!

I will be updating about my tour over the next few days, so don't blink....

Happy New Year 2008 !!
