“We played with Judge a few weeks ago and a kid came up to the merch table and asked us, ‘How would you describe your band? Like what genre?’ We just told him that: ‘This is hardcore.’ I guess if you wanna split hairs about what that necessarily means these days, you could say it’s not, because you can’t two-step to it. I’ve seen people try and it’s definitely… a sight to see. You can barely side-to-side to it. But the way I see it, as the frontman, I’m just expressing how this music makes me feel inside. I’m spazzing out because there’s no uniform way to enjoy it. Is that a douchey thing to say? I dont think i give a fuck LOL”

I didn’t post these a year ago, when he passed away, because I thought he’d think it was corny. But now I think it’s more important that we all remember Aaron and what a generous, loving soul he was.

Love you Aaron ❤️ taken in Georgetown, Seattle, Washington by @vbencdb

“Ben Trogdon is a zine maker, photographer, punk drummer and a mixed media artist born in Seattle, raised in Maryland and residing in NYC since 2012.

His trajectory started as a teenager in the late 90’s making zines, a practice that has been constant in his life and which laid the basis to his artwork by allowing him to explore with collage, photo documentation, font making and other analog graphic design techniques used in an era in which photoshop was not prevalent.

Explorations led to extrapolations and his photography went from fitting the function of illustrating the zines to becoming an expressive documentation of a DIY music scene and later adding collage elements and pastel crayon turning it into unique vibrant mixed media works of art.

These works were exhibited in galleries in USA, Europe and on the street of Santiago - Chile and can also be seen in record covers, flyers, as well as in collaboration with established brands.

For this show entitled “Enjoy New York” we present a collection of these mixed media works together with photos from different eras and two large scale banners installations that you will have to see for yourself.”
