TOMBS
#3
Cunnilingus
Creutzfeldt-Jakob. When there's no pussy left on
earth, the perverts have to visit the tombs! I heard
about this Swedish fanzine a few years ago through a
myspace page, but didn't find more traces of existence
so thought it disappeared... Until I found a copy in
a small French distro. So here we go: The content
is old school, as you would expect from old school zines
in the middle of old black, thrash, heavy and 80's death
metal. (Sometimes we're not far from an old dirty hard
rock state of mind, well it's old school so it's not
surprising...) The layout (Especially margins) reminds
me some old issues of SLAYER Mag, but the written content
(Mostly interviews) isn't so historically bothered and
sounds a bit more fucked like "I drink beer"...
The interviews aren't bad, but it's something like the
regular old school questions if I can say so (Maybe
I read too much of zines?)... I guess he doesn't give
a fuck about originality and only wants to ask what
he wants, under the influence of beer or old metal records. There
are also a few reviews of stuffs the editor liked, rather
short and positive ones. There are also a few English
mistakes. It's pro printed on quite heavy paper (Something
like 180 Grams), which makes the 36 x A4 pages look
more solid. TOMBS isn't standing out from the other
old school metal fanzines, but it's not in the bad average
for the genre, so peoples who like underground old school
black metal/ thrash/ death with a bit of 80's heavy
could like it.
Interviews:
GRAVE DESECRATOR, OZ, NIFELHEIM, VULCANO, BATHORY (Old
int from 1996), ANTICHRIST, FORCE OF DARKNESS, COMMUNION,
CENOTAPH, MAGNUS... And an HELLHAMMER article...
