How to take your band on tour
So you're a garage band who wants to take it to the next level? You've played a year's worth of shows in your home town and the other two home towns nearby; you've used the actual GarageBand software on the lead guitarist's MacBook Pro to record an album. You have a Bandcamp account, a Songkick account, a SoundCloud account, and a MySpace account. You've read the Nirvana biography and learned how…

FAULT Focus: Video interview with Vanessa Hudgens on her role in The Frozen Ground
Films that have the true story tag attached to them escape a lot of criticism. How are the audience to know how close we are to the truth, the run of events, to reality?
In The Frozen Ground, out in cinemas worlwide now, director Scott Walker has made sure that we know he’s tried pretty damn hard to get close. The context is laid on thick with titling at the start of the film, and…
We Love London: Brasserie Chavot
Spotlight: Brasserie Chavot
41 Conduit Street, Mayfair

Before I came to visit London, a lot of my friends and colleagues warned me that the food across the Pond wasn’t exactly five-star worthy. In my head, I pictured an endless line of plates piled high with greasy fish ’n’ chips, cold lumps of mash and mushy peas. However, after dining at Brasserie Chavot on my…
We Love London: Sanderson
Although FAULT has called London home since its inception, I, your friendly art director, had never made the long trek across the Pond until May. I’m not quite sure what I was expecting—lots of rain and mushy peas, perhaps?—but what I got was the experience of a lifetime.

TEETH
This past weekend, on the very fitting holiday 4/20, Dalston-based TEETH performed at Glasslands in Brooklyn, NY. Known for their many Internet stunts, the band has become a notorious group of Internet misfits who did the unthinkable of hacking into Lady Gaga’s twitter. This would be their first show in the states since their Pope Benedict XVI prank, and many dedicated fans came out on Saturday…
FAULT Focus: artist C.W. Lübeck
FAULT: How did you start out as an artist?
C.W.: I never really started out as an artist; I was born as an artist. A native talent cannot be bought or taught. It can be sanded and developed, like a diamond. This is a lengthy process: one must believe in the oneself all the way along the road of creativity, with all the hard work, luck, pleasure and disappointment. Being an artist is to die as…
