New at Chop Shop this week is an interesting design, 80’s Filmography, so titled because it distills 22 classic films from that decade into simple icons, all of which are arranged in — get this — a figure 8 (how apropos).
I’m struck by the clean lines, the understated color combos and the sparing use of text, all of which recall the safety inserts you might typically find on an airplane (a design quality that most of Chop Shop’s tees share…). The majority of images here are fairly self-evident (E.T., The Terminator, Goonies, et. al.), but a few continue to elude my immediate recognition. Which begs my next question: how many of these badges can you identify? Conversely, which ones give you trouble?

Pitchfork — along with seemingly every other music blog of note — is reporting that the distinguished alt. rock all-stars, Weezer, will reprise the band’s first two albums on an upcoming tour.
Rivers Cuomo, the outfit’s primary songwriter and notoriously inscrutable figurehead, told MTV that the band would alternate between their self-titled debut (a.k.a. 1994’s The Blue Album) and the equally beloved follow-up, Pinkerton, which famously tanked at the box office, only to garner an incredible cult cachet in the years following its 1996 release:
We have this really exciting idea to do a tour where we spend two nights in each city, and the first night, we play the entire Blue Album, and the second night, we play the entirety of Pinkerton. We’re just running it by promoters right now to see if there’s sufficient interest in the markets to do something like that, and if they’re on board, it’s gonna happen.
Personal reservations aside — why now? is this an empty ca$h grab? has such a format, that is, the iconic album played in sequence and its entirety, trended itself out? — this is a unique opportunity, especially for younger fans who did not have had the opportunity to catch the quartet during its nostalgia-inducing, early-to-mid 90’s creative peak. Green Album salad days, indeed.
