Hiena

Bombing Science: Favorite surface to paint on?

Hiena: I love bare brick walls but metal has my heart.

BS: Favorite boxcar?

Hiena: That’s a hard question to answer, If I had to choose one it would have to be a Chessie System or Route Rock.

to think thatís my favorite band.

But I’m into music too much to make a joke about it.

This question also is a hard question for me to answer, only because music has been such a huge part of my life.

I guess if I would have to choose it would have to beÖ Pianos Become the Teeth or old Misfits when Danzig was the singer.

BS: Favorite pornstar?

BS: Worst train to paint?

Hiena: Lela Star or Rachel Starr.

Hiena: Coal cars for sure. They’re boring and most of them are only local.

Although they are the cars I would see the most growing up because I lived near a coal factory in Alabama.

BS: Favorite film?

BS: Favorite band?

Hiena: It would be easy for me to answer this if I got a chance to visit Canada but I haven’t.

I will say I’ve always wanted to visit Vancouver and Toronto.

Hiena: Normally I would say something like ICP just because it would be funny for people

Hiena: Addams Family Values.

BS: Favorite canadian city?

BS:Worst place to travel to?

Hiena: Iíve gotten a chance to go to a good amount of places and out of all the places Iíve been to I would have to say Arkansas has to be the worst place Iíve ever been to.

I remember hearing they have signs posted about all the meth fumes.

BS: Worst chase story?

Hiena: I dunno if I have the best chase story but I know I got a good one. So when I moved to Louisville, Ky the first day of being there me my friend Mike, Levis, Wasp and Neid went to push a cart from Walmart.

Note we were in Levis parents van because they were out of town.

So our plan was to pick the cart up and just put it in the van, so we took out all the seats.

As we were sitting in the parking space Neid comes running out saying go go go! Mean while Wasp is still inside.

Something went wrong and we had to leave fast, so as we were trying to leave I was trying to close the van door and on the Honda Odyssey you can’t close the door once it’s in drive. So Levis hits the gas and tries to go between a car and a Tundra and hits the Tundra and it rips the van door off and we are hauling ass running lights and sparks are flying all over the place.

We drive down this access road to try and figure out what to do.

We then realize that the van door which we left in the parking lot has the vin number on it.

So we go to scoop Wasp up at some hotel

next door to Walmart and try to see if the cops were there so we could get the door back. But they were, so we get on the interstate to go back home with no door and everybody staring at us.

We finally get back to Levis house and hide the van in his garage.

We never got in trouble but we found out the cops knew what we were trying to do.

I guess other than loosing a door and Levis having to pay for the damage to his car we were pretty lucky.

Hiena: Alcatraz.

BS: Worst paint brand you’ve had to work with?

Hiena: Make a wish foundation.

BS: Hostels or random guys couch/floor?

Hiena: Girls beds.

BS: IHOP or Mcds for b-fast?

Hiena: I’m never up for breakfast so neither one.

BS: Best places to steal from?

BS:Last call order?

Hiena: Iím pretty sure everyone will agree that color place has to be the worst.

Hiena: O’douls.

BS: Favorite tip to use?

BS: Scratchies or etch?

Hiena: Ny fats and now that they changed the valve system I’ve been using the ap cruiser female cap.

Hiena: Etch

BS: Best place to bench freights in the states?

Hiena: Sometimes.

Hiena: Birmingham, Alabama on Morris ave. I spent most of my time in that parking lot.

BS: Eurostyles?

BS: Best bombing partner?

Hiena: Fat tire.

BS: Worst drug you’ve tried?

Hiena: Sorry I’m poison free.

BS: Worst country to paint?

Hiena: I’ve never been out of the USA so I couldnít answer this question.

Hiena: Most people hate on it but I love it.

BS: Clean trains?

Hiena: I’ve met a good amount of writers and out of all of them Gasm and Elmer has to be the best.

BS: Favorite beer?

BS: Legal graffiti?

Hiena: Who doesn’t love clean trains?

Hiena: I wanna thank everyone I’ve met on my travels and for everyone that let me crash on their couch.

Also can’t leave out the Scallywags, my dudes in D2F and my parents. If it wasn’t for those people I wouldn’t be where I am and I wouldn’t know the people I know.

Graffiti is the reason I have my best friends and got to have all the amazing adventures.

Also a special thanks to Vour for giving me a place to live for the time being.

BS: Best jail cells visited?

Narc

Narc, born in Belgium raised in Montrèal, has been doing graffiti since 2002. He ‘s been rolling with a couples of crews like FB, RUN and DEL, mainly reppin’ CA(Crazy Apes) for the last couples of years.

BombingScience: What’s good Narc? Been painting lately?

Narc: I’m painting tomorrow. Take off the rust of a slowly year.

BSCI: I can see your english ain’t getting better, esti d’belge. What does Narc stand for?

Narc: When I started doing graffiti I was writing Narko, which is a french expression for bastard (ko-nar). After a while trying and failing to get a nice O, I just decided to switch de K for a C and take out the O. I love the connotation of being a cop too, lol.

BSCI: What were you about back in 2002-03?

What has changed since, on a personal and

on a more general note?

Narc: In 2002-2003, I was finishing school and I was going to begin my art studies in college.

Internet wasn’t so present and I was a big fan of punk music. It was during a hardcore show at l’X that Kemoe and I met for the first time. We started our first crew (NLP) like real toys.

Maybe it is because I was younger and knew less writers, but I found the scene to be much more peaceful.

BSCI: Rumor has it that you used to be a heavy user of psychotropic drugs like fungus and LSD. Whats up with that?

Narc: I can let you answer this one.

BSCI: Good times. Quantity or quality?

Narc: I’d say both, but right now I’m a busy grown man, so I try to pull more quality because I don’t have time to get quantity.

BSCI: I was talking about LSD. Montrèal is known for its though winters, and yet a lot of writers keep busy during the cold months. What about you?

KP10s last year. He is also down with Les Ptis Comiques, no?

Narc: Yep. The real Gros Gunny...

Narc: I used to be active during the winter but not so much anymore. During a really cold night (around -22C) I was in the train yard without good gloves or boots, trying to finish this ugly burner.

The paint was spiting everywhere, jamming the tips and dripping as hell. Total bitch. After having paint in the eye I decided to go to the Tim Horton’s and at this moment my finger was burning as hell, it created a blister and after a week my skin fell. I lost almost all sensitive sence on my finger.

So now, I prefer sketching in a warm place with a nice cup of whiskey and a good record playing in the back.

BSCI: How was your winter status when you had more time on your hands(and all your fingers)?

Narc: One good thing with Montreal winters is all those snow walls, covering some sketchy summer spot to become some super safe wall. I have never been super up in the street but winter wasn’t a stop for me.

BSCI: Do you think summer will give you a lil boost on some cocaine bump boogie?

BSCI: What is an ideal painting session?

Narc: Sunny but not too warm, a good wall with grass, a good BBQ, lot of beers and of course painting and playing with real cool cats.

BSCI: Beers, huh? I heard they got some good ones in Belgium.

Narc: No kidding! I use to live in the 1000 of Brussels next to all those crazy bars, everyday was a good excuse to go out and drink ‘till 5 in the morning and hitting the snack-bar and getting a mitraillette for breakfast.

I guess Brussels still got some of my puke stains on their streets haha.

BSCI: I heard this guy Soma is also from Belgium, and he’s known for getting smashed.

Narc: Soma is walking in the good way to get a real mook legend status!

BSCI: Good wall partners?

Narc: For sure. I’ve got so many ideas I wanna try. We are planning to go paint in other cities and I’d love to go back in Europe this summer for a couples of weeks.

BSCI: What is your opinion on writers that wear tight jeans and Air Max 90s?

Narc: Same thing as for those who rock Wu Wear.

If your cool with me I’m cool with you.

BSCI: My boy Killa-Ef rocks a lot of Wu Wear. I recently gave him all my 2xl Ecko too.

Narc: Yeah. He is also big with LSD. Les Ptis Comiques.

BSCI: I spent some jail time with this guy Johste

Narc: For me a good partner need to love talking and make jokes cause I speak a lot and I sing (badly) when I paint! Someone who’s not just thinking of his part of the wall but more of the result.

BSCI: Influences?

Narc: So many. I’m influenced of course by the other guys in the crew, sometimes you will find the same arrow or the same uni on 2 different pieces on the same wall haha.

I’m really digging the work from guys like Nychos, Sueme, Kem5, Stare, 123klan, my friends from UNC, CSX and many, many more. There’s so much talented people.

BSCI: You used to do a lot of contract jobs?

Whats up with that nowadays?

Narc: I still do it but I’m just more selective about the choice of my contract. If I cannot do my piece I don’t do it.

BSCI: What are your views on the globalization of graffiti, like artists doing shows and contracts in different countries and cities?

Narc: I think it depends on the peoples but for me if you got talent and you’re a hard worker you deserve to get some recognition. And it’s sad but street cred doesn’t bring butter on the table.

BSCI: It def brings competition on the table.

Does it also raise the bar?

cool that now everybody’s opened to the world, I find it amazing that I can go in another country or another continent and be able to find cool peeps with who I can drink booze and paint walls without too much trouble.

BSCI: Last question. WHY WEREN’T YOU AT THE STPATRICK’S PARADE? Narc: Lol. I bailed! I copped some big steaks and grilled that bloody meat with some neighbors enjoying PBRs on the balcony.

Big up to all my boys: My cats in Crazy Apes, my old friend Soma, my juggalos from Jugga Lee and 10killos.us, Killa-EF and the rest of Mook-life, Spyro, Skillz, Johnny Lightning, RUN, HSP, KP10, XOC, Macho, Stix and all the FRIME TEAM.

Narc: Of course! And it’s a good thing, personally I’ve learned a lot of things talking and painting with artists from other cities. It’s
