Hmmm, looks pretty unorthodox but I'll bite. Issue 1 sounds interesting.

I bought the first two issues, like it. The inclusion of more art and text relating to it made a big difference to me, the typical interview after interview thing etc. doesn't do much for me. Unless people have some stories to tell, or it's a band I'm really interested most interviews are simply boring as hell, when you've read enough of them.

Read some of the reviews last night, like the different style there as well, made me smile

Damn, this magazine looks so rad. Enough to get me back onto The Corroseum (well, this and unemployment will do that).

I've left Terrorizer now and am going to do my own zine, but these guys beat me to it by half a year... sods

Watch this space for more details on my new zine - I hope some of you guys and girl (or are there more of us now?) will dig it

Stoked people are enjoying it.

Also cool that you enjoy the reviews. A lot of people tend to have a "I can make up my own mind" click and download mentality, which misses the point I think. Like, does that mean you don't talk about music with other people either? Doesn't make sense to me.

Anyway, thanks for reading!

IT'S ALIVE

New York Metal Primer

Villains "Taxi Driver" illustration by Beaver / Slipped Disc Records Interview

Chris Black Interview

Cauldron Black Ram Interview. Illustration by Putrid.

At this time the new issue is only available direct from 20 Buck Spin. By next week they should be at various US distros (NWN, Ajna, etc) and within a few weeks in the EU (High Roller being the primary place over there). Profound Lore usually gets some for the Canadians. Also various book stores and record shops around North America.

Here is a bunch of info about the new issue, sample pics, etc:

The mag also has its own website now and eventually will have most of the reviews of prior issues and other stuff:

Any 20 Buck Spin order of $25 or more will get one free for a limited time.

Is there anywhere still stocking issue 1? Fantastic zine! The interview questions are especially well chosen.

RatherGoWild · Post by **RatherGoWild** » Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:12 pm

Most of the distros carrying the mag still have copies of #1 and #3. Very few copies of #2 remaining (20buckspin is completely sold out). I suggest checking:

The Ajna Offensive
Nuclear War Now!
Hell's Headbangers
Aquarius Records
Cyclopean Records
Midheaven Mailorder
Profound Lore
Dark Descent Records

Europe

High Roller Records
Iron Bonehead
Terratur Productions

Thanks!
