Banksy ➔ Cardinal Sin

Cardinal Sin is a bust with its face sawn off and replaced by blank tiles, designed as a response to the child abuse scandal in the Catholic church.

In a statement, Banksy said: "I'm never sure who deserves to be put on a pedestal or crushed under one."

The sculpture was unveiled at the Walker Art Gallery, where it is sitting alongside 17th Century religious art. The bathroom tiles have been put in place of the priest's face to create a pixelated effect. "I love everything about the Walker Gallery - the Old Masters, the contemporary art, the rude girl in the cafe. And when I found out Mr Walker built it with beer money it became my favourite gallery," said Banksy.

"The statue? I guess you could call it a Christmas present. At this time of year it's easy to forget the true meaning of Christianity - the lies, the corruption, the abuse."

BINGO PLAYERS ➔ MODE

And they’re back again with another huge hit. If it’s one thing Bingo Players know how to do well it’s own every single genre they touch. Electro? No problem. House? You got it. Maybe a little progressive? Easy.

After being teased and pleased for quite some time, the long-awaited Mode has now finally been unleashed from Paul Bäumer and Maarten Hoogstraten who make up Bingo Players. Undoubtedly the duo’s utmost largest release thus far, here’s what they had to say:

“Huge follow-up smash-hit ‘Cry Just A Little’ and latest club banger ‘Rattle’. Bingo Players’ new track ‘Mode’ brings you awesome progressive sounds in this typical Bingo Players style which we assure will tear rooftops apart in every place on this earth!”
