What a big improvement! The debut of this cool zine already turned out pretty promising, but with this excellent follow-up Stefan and Vasili really set their own standards for futures issues incredibly high (hopefully not TOO high)! The most important difference to their first offering is pretty easy to recognize as soon as you have […]
It took editors Stefan and Vasili quite a while this time to accomplish issue number 3 of their unholy rag, but after I’ve seen the result now I must say it was definitely worth the wait! Luckily the whole concept of covering blasphemous Black and Death Metal acts exclusively wasn’t changed at all, which results […]
This fourth edition of Germany’s ANCIENT SPIRIT TERROR zine unfortunately is supposed to be their farewell issue as Stefan and Vasili have decided to exclusively focus on organizing their "Unholy Metal Mayhem" gigs as well as putting out tape releases from now on… What a pity, cause slowly but surely ANCIENT SPIRIT TERROR had evolved […]
It’s always great to see new underground (print) zines popping up, especially if their main focus is the support of the more obscure and unknown acts, rather than just following the footsteps of the major magazines. The guys at ANCIENT SPIRIT TERROR decided to label their publication "Blasphemous Metal Zine", which (at least in the […]
Seems like the guys of SKULLCRUSHER have enough endurance to run their fanzine, this is after all number 13, and as far as I can judge (most previous releases are unknown to me) they have not changed their style. Obviously they are still Metal-lunatics, a fact that is most evident when reading this zine. Metal […]
Truly a highly professional done zine we got with the new SKULLCRUSHER issue here! The high quality printing, the effective, tidy and tasteful layout, the quality of the interviews – everything is top notch… As a kind of underground alternative to major zines like ROCK HARD or HAMMER the bands featured are from all kinds […]
Wow, I didn’t really expect to see SKULLCRUSHER # 10 to be released so quick after its predecessor, but Harald, Christian, Daniel and their other pleasure slaves obviously managed to prove me wrong here. Layout- and printing-wise they maintained the high quality of # 9 and even added 4 additional pages to this new issue […]
This is the debut issue of a new zine from Portugal, which is limited to 500 handnumbered copies. The musical taste of editor António Lúcio comes pretty close to ours, so old school Death and Thrash Metal fans will be pleased to hear that this issue features interviews with ASPHYX, UNLEASHED, DEVASTATION (TEX), DANIEL EKEROTH, […]
From the South Eastern end of Germany, 35 miles or so outside of Munich, hails the Thrash demon named "Flo" and his tempest spawn THRASH ATTACK. Already up to his fourth edition, I thought it was a damned good time to finally get his labor recognized and reviewed within these pages. THRASH ATTACK is the […]
Out from the shadows of the cold city of Praha (Prague) the capital city of the Czech Republic now hails this latest incarnation of Metal insanity from the editor, Cem Yucel, who once brought to you the magazine called G.A.M. from Turkey. Reinvention never read so good! With the migration to the Czech Republic, the […]
