Everyone’s favourite snakes, The Serpents, have just started a blog. The group, formalised by Tristan Ceddia, began as a power in numbers thing, a creative focus group of sorts, that drew in and upon the various creative talents of its members. Although some wanted nothing more than to be in a gang, what has sprung from it has been much greater than just hanging out at the milk bar. And now they are also looking tough online.

For those not already familiar with their antics, The Serpents have been involved in an eclectic range of projects. They have decked out the interiors of shipping containers, guest edited Hijacked Magazine, collaborated on in-situ magazines, hosted cinema screenings for underground films, not to mention curating our NowNow Gallery. But of course you know this already.

Although we’re never ones to discount the knowledge of our readers, what you may not be aware of is that they also run Serps Press, a dynamic publishing company that so far has been responsible for ‘Home Made Tattoos Rule’ by Serps Press founder Thomas Jeppe, ‘Surprise Tough Times’ by Christopher Day, and ‘Westside’ by Conor O’Brien. They have also recently released ‘Venom 3′ (image below), printed digitally with Fluoro cloth binding and an impressive single image cover and back. Available for $10 at Dobry Den (Sydney), The Outpost (Brisbane), Schwipe (Melbourne) and Keith & Lottie (Perth) it’s more than a keepsake – it’s a keeper. More images from ‘Venom 3′ after the jump
