who was first, berlin based concept store 8 1/2 wochen with the slogan “shop the pain away” or intro magazine with the yeah yeah yeahs headline “dance the pain away”? of course none of them, kitty-yo artist peaches invented it with her mega-hit from 2000 “fuck the pain away”. her new album comes on may 4th.




berlin´s fashion designers, artists and record labels strike back. fuck crisis. fuck suffering banks.
berlin´s quality, style and attitude rules.
