"I was given a copy of the new Pavement Licker while I was drunk. Which must mean it's available now. It's free. It's very good with tip top contributors as always - some Concrete Hermit collaborators Andrew James Jones, Holly Wales, Ian Stevenson ,Jeremyville, Jon Slade as well as the likes of David Shrigley, Antony Micallef and Paul Insect. It's all lovingly put together by Josh Jones and Orko who's lurking on this network somewhere"...

These guys are superstars – they set up Pavement Licker to support aspiring writers and artists could say they’ve been published on their CVs. A dude called Kelsey Brookes in San Diego gave up his job to give just being an artist a go, and he sent them some pictures, they published it, Steve Lazarides saw it, asked who he was, they told him, two months later Kelsey was in London selling work at Santa’s Ghetto and now he travels all over the world selling his stuff for good money and he gets to surf and paint every day. Which is exactly what he wanted.
So it works.
It’s pretty sporadic, but it’s ace in your face and has had artists like Banksy, Jamie Hewlett, David Shrigley, Paul Insect and Antony Micallef do stuff for its pages.
Give it a look see – they’ve just relaunched their website. Nice
Gonna do an interview with one of them soon too.
