CURRENT ISSUE



#35 (Jul/Aug 2008) On the Road

We’d like to imagine you reading this issue of Anthem on a jet bound to Micronesia or in the back of a road-tripping car cruising through the sweltering beauty of Baja, Mexico. If not, rest assured—there’s plenty of vicarious traveling to be had between the covers of this, our annual On the Road issue.

LIFE

A comprehensive fourteen-page report from the creative wilds of Amsterdam, including studio visits with Parra and Experimental Jetset, a rather skewed travelogue from the week we spent in Tahiti, a Q&A with Iraqi artist Ahmed Alsoudani and a trip to small-town Kansas for some blow-up-doll sex.

Keywords: Travel, Amsterdam, Parra, Experimental Jetset, Tahiti, Ahmed Alsoundani

FILM

Writer and film director James Greer gets French sensation Lou Doillon to open up about her famous family and her journey from barefoot Parisian punk to national fashion icon, the ingenious Duplass Brothers teach us how to scare the shit out of people, and we take a look at four films on four very different forms of art.

MUSIC

Sweden’s darlings Lykke Li, El Perro del Mar and Anna Ternheim talk to us about love, loneliness and each other, and the twenty-one-member psychedelic maelstrom known as Dark Meat brings their LSD-enabled circus on the road and more.
