Oceana, WA is an old coal mining town surrounded by an amazing landscape. However, it's home to an Oxycontin epidemic. High school girls battle $800 a day habits, while families struggle to support their children, but have full prescription bottles. 

Oxyana is a new documentary about Oceana by Sean Dunne, an American based director, who became widely recognised for his online documentary American Juggalo.

Very rarely is it acceptable to buy a skate deck with the intention of never, ever, ever setting it up. This is one of those occasions where it’d be okay. There are 130 of these Evan Hecox-designed, Ten-years-of-Monster-Children Chocolate boards, and if you want one you can score one by simply being faster than everyone else who is reading these words right now.

Last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Band of Horses paid tribute to the late Jason Molina by covering the Songs: Ohia track "I've Been Riding With the Ghost". Molina passed away in March after a long battle with alcoholism. 

Since Record Store Day a bunch of LP's have been surfacing from Boards of Canada. All the records featured the same short atmospheric track, but they all had a different code read out at the end.

On the 27th of April, Cartoon Network aired this commercial, and earlier today the Boards of Canada official site had been changed to redirect to here. Once entering this code: 699742628315717228936557813386519225, you're shown this video and sent to the pre-order of the band's new album, the first new material since 2005. A damn good way to get your fans thinking. 

Pre order Tomorrow's Harvest here.

Trent Reznor's band How To Destroy Angels played last weekend at Coachella, and that was only their second performance, ever. For this show they spent over a year perfecting a stage setting that emulated the feeling of an art installation. Coachella have just released and clip documenting how and why the band chose to play their show like this. Watch the setting in action here as the band play 'Parasite'. 

'Manhattan', the second video from Cat Power's latest album Sun, directed by Greg Hunt. 

What would Noa Deane do if he wasn't a surfer?

Queens of the Stone Age played a new track off their upcoming album …Like Clockwork recently in Brazil. The album is expected to be released in June this year, through Matador Records. 

Kyle Camarillo shot a bunch of amazing portraits for the Kevin Ancell feature in the new issue, but we couldn’t run them all without renaming the mag The Kevin Ancell Fan Club Newsletter, so here's a few outtakes. 

Kurt Vile shares a track of his new album, Wakin' On A Pretty Daze, due out April 8 via Matador. 

Pre orders are available here. 

Last week, thanks to Hurley, Air New Zealand and Poler, we sent Alex Gray, Chippa Wilson, Dylan Rieder, Greyson Fletcher, Jack Fardell, Ryan Wilson and Natas Kaupas to the long white cloud - New Zealand. Following their every move was Riley Blakeway, Andrew Peters, Chris Searl and Rambo Estrada.

In this, the 38th issue of Monster Children we have so much good stuff! We talk with Mike O’Meally about his twenty-odd-year reign in skate photography; we meet the man who coined the title ‘editor-at-large,’ Glenn O’Brien; Keith Hufnagel tells us why he won’t wear his own t-shirts; pro-surfer Warren Smith interrupts an interview to take a photo of something; and the legendary artist Kevin Ancell says, ‘Fuckin’’ nearly 50 times. Seriously. Dude needs his mouth washed out.
