As you can see, my copy got a little waterlogged and/or damaged over the years, but this is a lost early 1983 hardcore punk fanzine from Seattle called ATTACK, #8. It was published by Jo Smitty, aka Jeff Smith, then of the band Mr. Epp & The Calculations, and later the man behind Feminist Baseball fanzine, a record label and even a pizza place.
His teenage bandmate Mark Arm contributes many of the reviews in this one, some of which I’ll be posting in the weeks to come.
