In your face, don't give fuck attitude and they're about to come and bomb throw-ups on your house. Nost crew is a law onto themselves. Graffiti has loose rules, and most artists follow them as a guide. Nost ignores the no go zones and constantly pioneers new spots that have never seen a spray-can. We don't know it now but Nost and Pork are the equivalent of 70K back in the early 2000's. Pushing boundaries, getting good spots (heavens), abandoned buildings, train lines and trying many different styles. If they were arrested now they'd still have 100's of tags, throwies and pieces around Melbourne for years. They have successfully smashed the system, probably harder than any crew has ever done before.
A grassroots interpretation of graffiti and overlooked culture in neglected urban landscapes.

Empire of Nost
Melbourne's most notorious. Anybody who walks the back and front streets of Clifton Hill or Collingwood will see the power and influence of Nost. They are a modern day version of 70K. Nost goes hard, pushes boundaries and pioneers new spots constantly. With the sort of work ethic it is still astonishing they haven't been caught yet. It doesn't matter which side of the graffitied fence you sit on, you will commend the effort involved in producing such extensive work.
