Mathieu Amalric for France-Amerique

The voice of the homeland is out and take you this month in the head of a James Bond’s bad guy!

PICK UP AN ISSUE!!!!  You cheapoz*

* So you can read the excellent paper of my homeboy and beloved editor-in-chief Jean-Cosme Delaloye which is the closest thing to french gonzo journalism i read recently.

* So I can I ask him for a consequent raise for the next issue’s cover I just shot on friday with ???  With??? …. sssssshhhhhhh it’s a secret

Kings of Convenience for Death+taxes magazine

Death+taxes is out, pick up an issue to see the photographs on nice paper stock and my hairy face on the contributor’s page.

Now, to talk a little about the pictures, let’s just say band photography is fun and frustrating at the same time: You get there willing to be William Claxton or James Marshall chillin’ and jammin’, but this industry is now worldwide and that time is over. Now, you find yourself in front of two jetlaged norvegians lads, who came out of the plane 30 minutes before the shoot, who barely know anyway in which country they are, and a publicist who tells you you only got 11 minutes.

Just between us, have you guys noticed that only car services and PR people are that precise with time?  I am writing this of course with all the respect due to these professions….. My wife beeing a publicist herself…

Anyhow, it could sound like a disaster waiting to happen without the elegance and kindness of the Kings, who played me a song in a stairwell, even accepted to climb up on the roof and had the decency to only call me annoying in Norwegian. Thanks guys!

Last week, I posted on here a portrait of me taken by  Erlend, I thought I ‘d show you the reverse shot.
