REEK
#1
To
distinguish myself from myself, and especially from
the current myself, I'll review more zines. Yesterday
and today aren't worth a razorblading bean, so keep
on bleeding the razorback... With rusty razors of corpse! REEK
is a new Death metal zine supporting the underwears
of the new old school Death metal new-new necro-wave
(Got it?), and it's quite close to a few new zines I
met lately that rememburge strongly of the end 80's
funziners. I first saw a lookalike parallelism with
ABHORRENT DECAY, but finally the content is not so close
(Maybe mix it with a bit of IRON HAMMER (Less metal
metal) and a bit of THRASH ATTACK (More voluble)) and
REEK is a bit more satisfying than the first mentioned
bikoz the reviews are longer and there's more content.
Now the interviews aren't all-ways penetrating the minds
of the victims to steal some little existential jewels
of peer-to-peersonality, half is rather short and reminds
fanzines from the end 80's (Also for that matter), but
it should come out with more right hand rehearsals (I
meant with the pen, of corpse!). The layout is computer
made, with drawn margins and some flyers or some cutopaste... To
scum it up, and use a "bottom trapper" cliché,
I'll say: This is a fanzine made by a fan for fans...
It's only about music and doesn't focus on what lies
around... Might fit the reading needs of those enthusiastic
for the new-new-wave-of-old-school-Death-metal, but
there's nothing or rememburgeance yet.
Interviews:
Shackles, Tribulation, Fatalist, Nuclear Winter Records,
Maim and Miasmal.
