Under the Volcano – #27 – Review

December 1, 1995

A short, bitterly transcendent fiction piece entitled “Why I Ate My Wife” by M. Gira of Swans, and an interview. A fanzine, sometimes marshmallowy positive.

Out of Bounds – Review

December 1, 1995

Out of Bounds is a political ‘zine, and as ‘zines go, its viewpoints are not particularly beyond the pale. A lot of non-music ‘zine reviews.

The Requiem – #5 – Review

November 1, 1995

Now-quarterly extreme music magazine. Now 64 pages with color glossy cover. Solid, descriptive reviews. One of the most comprehensive guides to extreme music.

Pulp – Review

November 1, 1995

What a dysfunctional counterculture we live in when Tarantino has to be the name to lure readers into laying down some clams on this crap.

Mr. Density – Review

November 1, 1995

This publication covers Crispin Glover art, crossword puzzles, writers spewing philosophies on why he does what he does, and letters from fearless fans.

Femme Flicke – Review

November 1, 1995

It’s good to see a directory of woman directors and special features on women and their involvement in the medium. I recommend it for your next slumber party.

Crank – Review

November 1, 1995

Crank specializes in murderous or pornographic news tidbits mixed with Hitler propaganda and violent film outtakes. Includes a feature on Boston’s Combat Zone.

Chance to Shine – Review

November 1, 1995

Strike your pose and lie in a pile of books with this one. Yes, your run of the mill Morrissey fanzine, however this is imported from the land of la la la’s.

The Cool and the Crazy – Review

October 1, 1995

Local ‘zines are tricky to cover, but I thought I should just mention this one in passing. It covers the Boston Rockabilly scene.
