Anchorsand

ANCHORSAND 0001

It’s almost a certainty that very few nights are a blur of fake blood and inverted crosses; cue our photoshoot party with Anchorsand…

Though not necessarily Satanists in the Anton LaVey or Aleister Crowley mold, burgeoning brand Anchorsand are without question a little bit wicked. Matt first became acquainted with the lil’ devils through MuchMusic’s reality show Disband, where they were members of a group called Guttershark. He hit it off with the band, and kept in touch, so it was no surprise when two of the ‘sharks called up and asked about Matt shooting the look book for their new clothing company. Despite a small budget, Matt was happy to oblige, hooking up sponsorships with comrades at Jägermeister & Pabst along the way; and when a never-to-be-named fraternity offered up the decrepit depths of their basement as a soiree spot, the final nail was in the proverbial coffin.

Not one to miss a good old-fashion get together, Spot Cinema stopped by to document the amoral affair - thanks to Mike & Mark for the vile (in the best sense of the word) video. Be sure to mind the spilt blood as you levitate over the jump for rest of this sinful series.
