Some scans from Tim Ellison’s ROCK MAG fanzine, circa 1992, published out of San Diego. This was one of the best of the era – a, unpredictable digest-sized deep dive into the music-obsessed cranium of Mr. Ellison. Ellison also played guitar in The Nephews at the time.
Later he changed the name to MODERN ROCK MAGAZINE (!) for the last issue or two. I’ve got other scans from it forthcoming.
Hi Anonymous – thanks a lot for the kind words. I too was worried about that, and asked around a little like you’re doing back in 2012, but at this point I’ve been doing this for 3+ years with no issues at all.
iTunes accepts the podcasts, and many others like mine, which leads me to believe that music-based shows like this are generally OK. I think avoiding big names is in everyone’s best interests. Good luck, and please drop us a link once you’ve posted your first one….
*** UPDATE – thanks very much to our 8 buyers. That went quickly. Superdope #5 now officially deleted from the catalog ***
Look what the long weekend turned up. Just found the final 8 copies of SUPERDOPE #5, a fanzine I put out in 1992.
They’re not doing much of worth sitting in my garage, so I’ve put these last copies up for sale if you’re interested.
It reflects my obsessions of the day: raw third-wave garage punk (interviews with THOMAS JEFFERSON SLAVE APARTMENTS and THE NIGHTKINGS) as well as weirdo avant-pop (cover interview with FLY ASHTRAY).
Reviewers are by Jay Hinman, Tom Lax, Glen Galloway and Doug Pearson. There’s an article about the THINKING FELLERS UNION LOCAL 282 by Grady Runyan, and a piece about a still-active San Francisco dive bar called the Uptown by Jay.
Once these 8 copies are gone, this thing is finally, severely out of print.
Chris D.’s 1989 “Double Snake Bourbon” book of lyrics, poetry and prose. I’m selling a copy over here if you’re interested.
One of the great lost fanzines of the 1990s, BAZOOKA. This is the 4th issue from October 1998. Published by one Tom Arnaert of Ieper, Belgium, the ‘zine was a diverse & exceptionally well-written mix of punk, world music, dub, 78s and modern dirty blues. And yes, it’s written in English.
Anyone know how to get in touch with Mr. Arnaert?
Final copies!
I’m down to the last 13 copies of DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE #1, a 68-page print fanzine that came out exactly two years ago.
The new price reflects the fact that they’re just about gone, and won’t be reprinted. But hey – so maybe you don’t want to spring for that, but DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE #2 is a mere $3.99 plus shipping, and that’s 84 pages, a year newer and arguably a better overall read.
DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE #3? Good question. “We’re working on it”. Stay tuned.
