LOS ANGELES – September 22, 2026 – Kill Pretty makes print feel dangerous again. Created by artist and performer Tyler Nacho, the independently published magazine brings underground art, graffiti, skateboarding, comedy and outsider culture into a physical object that feels found rather than recommended. That distinction matters at the end of the year, when most gift guides begin to look like the same page repeated across the internet. Kill Pretty does not read like a safe choice made by an algorithm. It feels closer to something pulled from the right corner of a record store, passed across a bar or discovered in the apartment of someone with better taste. The magazine describes itself as “FREAKS ONLY” and “made by freaks, for freaks.” Its issues and online archive carry that point of view through interviews, original art, personal writing and cultural commentary that resist the smooth, neutral voice of conventional media.
Kill Pretty has featured conversations and work involving Christy Karacas, Henry Zebrowski, Fancy Lads, Crimebo the Clown, JAMES, Superchief Gallery, queer indie skater Chandler Burton and comedian Bert Kreischer. The names move through different scenes, but the magazine’s interest stays consistent: people making strange, funny and original work on their own terms. A copy of Kill Pretty does not require a speech when it changes hands. It says enough on its own. It works for the person who still buys records, notices the art on a flyer, follows graffiti across a city or would rather own one interesting thing than scroll past a hundred forgettable ones. There is also something deliberate about giving print now.
A magazine can be opened, left out, marked up, lent to someone and found again months later. It occupies space. In a season crowded with disposable recommendations, that permanence feels unusually personal. Nacho’s larger creative world gives the publication its texture. He is also the creator of Death To Realism, an immersive live theater experience that combines a dance party, puppet show, mystical experience, magical thinking, comedy and motivational ideas. His portfolio documents performance and creative work connected to Lost Lands and Electric Forest, including Oola’s Party Palace and interactive puppet, set and costume work. The same handmade energy moves through Kill Pretty. It is part magazine, part artifact and part entry point into a creative scene that does not need to explain itself to everyone. Some people are easy to shop for because they send links. The more interesting ones rarely do. Kill Pretty is for them.
