Metalion is pissed! Pissed about Black Metal and pissed about the whole Metal scene in general! No wonder that the 19th issue of his legendary publication got entitled "Fukk Metal"! And you know what? He’s so goddamn right! "If record labels drop me off their mailing lists, it’s more than welcome…" he says in his […]
I’m really glad that Metalion went for a more regular release schedule with SLAYER MAG, because he’s one of the last remaining Metal warriors out there, still sticking to the "old fashioned" way of putting out an uncommercial zine, printed on paper, in black and white! If I personally would have enough time, nerves and […]
Usually I don’t review zines before I haven’t finished reading them, but in this case I know too well what quality is to expect, so I will make an exception. Yes, ladies and gentlemen – Metalion not only managed to put out another issue of his legendary publication within a rather short period of time, […]
I don’t really have a problem with the fact that the newest issue of Metalion’s SLAYER MAG is lacking in the usual number of pages this time for the simple fact that it’s still a highly entertaining publication. Plus our crazy buddy from Norway finally managed to unleash his die hard Metal onslaught on a […]
Metalion is a neverending fighter for the essence of evil in metal and therefore Slayer magazine from Norway will be around as long as his finances allow him to surrender and most probably also longer than most of us will remain active in the death metal scene! I guess Slayer first caught my attention at […]
Ever since its origin Norway’s SLAYER MAG has been supporting the extreme Metal underground straight from the heart, and you could always be sure that bands that were getting a feature in Metalion’s unholy pages, really deserved it! Fifteen years later luckily nothing has changed about this attitude (nor the classic layout), with the only […]
Mr. Westphal really deserves a lot of respect for still keeping the flame of his printed, first class underground rag burning after so many years now, especially in times when everyone seems to check out new bands through the internet and myspace (uuurgh!) in particular. In fact, NECROMANIAC seems to be one of the last […]
When grandmaster Westphal announced an english written issue of his extremely cool underground zine, I had serious doubts that he would be able to transfer his sick sense of humor into it as well… But as we can all check out ourselves now, he did manage to pull it off extremely well! Due to the […]
Well, meanwhile I think everybody capable of understanding German should have come across this zine dedicated to all kinds of Death Metal (except the melodic Death crap), old school Thrash and obscure War / Black Metal… I see no sense in beating around the bush but after I had spend a couple of wonderful toilet […]
Usually I don’t review zines before I have finished reading them, but in this case I simply had to make an exception, cause otherwise this big fat monster will most certainly be sold out already by the time my stupid babbling about it goes online. And hey – by knowing the previous four issues, this […]
