Ipecac Recordings Roster Becomes Toys
Once a month next year, teeny boutique toymakers UNKL will issue a series of
limited-edition figurines inspired by the Ipecac Recordings roster. Yep,
that Ipecac: The Mike Patton co-founded label with a bent for dumping disc
after disc of weird-ass experimental punk/noize/sludge/rap on a gleefully
suspecting public. And that UNKL, the people responsible for those Wilco
figures. It is, to say the least, a strange pairing.
Still, these Ipecac toys are really nifty-looking, with a lot more
personality (if a slightly higher chance of coming to life and murdering
your face) than, say, a Kindercore set might. Each figure will be available
individually in a limited edition of 500, with a new one arriving each
month.
Stay tuned for updates from our "Mike Patton regresses into childhood watch
'07" as they come.
As for Ipecac, their next release is Brian Retzell's score to the recently
released vampire flick 30 Days of Night, out October 30.
