Let it Kill You is a visualy rich and deeply personal book by tatoo artist and skateboader Ben McQueen. The book explores the interwined cultures of skateboading and tatooing through intimate interviews, photography, and artwork. It features conversations with prominent figures such as Jamie Thomas, Andrew Allen, Tyler Bledsoe,Nathan Kostechko, Chad Koeplinger, among others. The book’s format blends elements of a photography book with the candid, raw style of skateboad magazine interview. Intervews were conducted in person during 2021 and 2022, capturing authentic stories and perspectives. The result is a collection that feels more like an intimate conversation than a traditional interview. Let it Kill You is not just a book; it’s a tribute to the enduring connection between two subcultures that have profoundly influenced McQueen’s life and work.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.
