April 1, 2008 By: American Salon Staff American SalonWHAT'S ON YOUR IPOD?
We asked Joico/ISO guest artist Ben Mollin, the inked-and-pierced Shear Genius finalist, what he's been listening to.
"Sabotage" by the Beastie Boys. "It's just one of those tunes that I never get tired of."
"Winter's Wolves" by The Sword. "These four guys from Austin, Texas, remind me of Black Sabbath. They definitely rock."
"Cosmic Dancer" by T.Rex. "T.Rex rules. It's old glam with cellos and violins—good stuff."
