Stuff I've got at the moment:

Maximum Rock n Roll #317 €4
One thing that can be relied upon in the world of punk and D.I.Y. publishing is a new issue every month of MRR. Respect is due for that alone. Inside are the staple columns, interviews and reviews - the month wouldn't be the same without it! Of late MRR has had some themed issues with a 'Punk and film' one a 'Health' one, 'Print is dead' and 'Photos' is due. Nice one! [review from Loserdom #19].

Give Me Back #5 €0.75
This is the zine born out the ashes of classic D.I.Y. hardcore zine Heartattack. It's "posi" out of it as Ed Spudmonkey might say. With columns on loads of relevent stuff to the punk cummunity! and interviews with bands. Featured in issue #5 are: Pygmy Lush, Dead Friends Kimya Dawson, Next Victim, and painter and album illustrator Sean Mahan. Plus various contributor columns, many of them written by some of our favorite zinesters. These include Keep Loving Keep Fighting, Avow, HPV, and America? zines. Its only 75c so get a copy! Distros interested in taking some get in touch as i've got fookin' loads of these.

Pictures €2.50
Unlike his last zine Words and Pictures, this time round Andy hasn't written any descriptions or thoughts related to the pictures inside - he's let them speak for themselves. I did like the written stuff last time, but I agree that the pictures are well able to get a message across alone. All one has to do is pick a page and let their eyes roam all over, with so much detail in the drawings. Some topics which might be covered include: man's disconnection from nature, work and the rat race, progress/ technology, media as distraction. [review from Loserdom #19].

You Can’t Get There From Here #10, #11, #12 price tbc
In You Can’t Get There From Here, Carrie borrows the Snakepit formula of drawing a comic strip to chart each day. Carrie is possibly a better artist than Ben Snakepit (not to take away from that classic zine), while her comic retains its own charm and identity to exist alongside Snakepit (rather than aping it). Topics covered include trying not to drink alcohol, cats, meeting rattlesnakes and tarantula's while on daily jogs in the Santa Monica mountains, and lots more. Nice! [review from Loserdom #19].

Nonesuch #3 €3
Lee produced two classic issues of Nonesuch in the early 90’s and disappeared from zine production in the intervening years. Thankfully he returns with this recent third issue charting his trip travelling around India. Lee is a great writer and he paints a picturesque journey of the Indian atmosphere he has soaked up travelling by bus, places he visits, dealing with the loss of a family member etc. I found myself swept along due to the quality of the writing – check it! [review from Loserdom #19].

Harlot RN price tbc
Megan decided to become an RN for a variety of reasons, and she'll give you a different answer depending on her mood. Initially she wanted to be a midwife and ended up instead becoming an RN. She also wants to provide care to people, and as a proponent of DIY culture, wants to feel like she has the ability to help others. In this zine, she has to really examine what helping and care mean, as she routinely encounters restrains and sedatives. How does free will balance out against what is best for a patient? How does one determine what is best? A personal look into nursing. [review from Microcosm].

Ideas In Pictures #5 €3
Beautiful ‘arty’ zine with really class illustrations and inky artwork along the theme of ‘everyday transactions in business, leisure and warfare’. All with screenprinted cover, it’s great to see such a level of creativity in a zine. [review from Loserdom #16].

Snakepit 2008 price tbc
Follow Ben's life through a transitional period, starting the year off with punks and puke and then mellowing out into watching TV and going to bed early. The way he lives his life may have changed, but the way he draws it is still the same honest, real, sloppy Snakepit that we all know and love. [review from Microcosm].

Housmans Peace Dairy 2010 €10
2010 diary from Housmans radical bookshop, London; its similar to the Slingshot one but more old school!

Words & Pictures €2.50
This new zine by Andy like his previous zine, the excellant Cracks In The Wall, is a truly thought provoking, mind altering, almost consciousness shifting accomplishment! Inside there are amazing illustrations and drawings by Andy along with written thoughts/explanations on what the different features in the drawings might represent. This is good as some of the detail and whats going on in the drawings is quite complex with such themes covered as “the hidden paradoxes and contradictions that underlie the human character; the relationships between people and the natural world; ideas, beliefs and their power in shaping the human story; the dehumanizing aspects of the workplace and the modern world! etc. I intend to delve plenty more into this zine and mull over the words and pictures inside as there is serious brain food here. Recommended. [review from Loserdom #16].

Hammered By The Irish by Harry Browne €10
On a damp night in February 2003, as the U.S. prepared to invade Iraq, five Catholic Worker activists scrambled across runways and broke into a hangar at Shannon Airport. Swinging hammers and a pickaxe, they did more than $2.5 million damage to a U.S. Navy transport plane.
The five were hit with the full weight of the law, and were quickly condemned by the media and much of the anti-war movement. But three-and-a-half years later a Dublin jury decided they were innocent of any crime. This is the story of how a civilian airport in the west of Ireland became a "Pitstop of Death," and how an act of conscience touched the hearts and minds of twelve jurors, making political and legal history, in an epic of popular resistance. [review from AK Press].

Underground book €10
Published to coincide with an exhibition in Dublin earlier this year (2008) Underground is a "publication looking at the changes in independent music culture over the last 15 years, tracking the relationship between the local and the global, society and technology and charting the erasure of the boundary between the public and the private." (-Underground). The book is beautifully designed and has lots of great reading.

Black Cloud #2 price tbc
Bret has put together a zine of photos from the punk shows he's been to over the past couple of years. The quality of the copies is really (in fact, exceptionally!) good, so you can actually tell what's going on in the pictures. Photos of Nine Shocks Terror, Bent Outta Shape, Black Rainbow, Do Ya Hear We Fest, From the Depths, Dark Dark Dark, Japanther, and a slew of Ohio bands, including the wonderful Delay! [review from Microcosm].

Bonuscupped #2 €2
Deadly zine from Wales with tales of hitch-hiking around Ireland, travelling in India, interview with Razorcake zine, pub review, the socialist adventures of Giggsy and more. Great stuff!

Samurai Dreams " Fringe film and VHS culture" €2.50
VHS has risen from the grave! Excavating the video bargain bins of their favourite haunts, these film-crazy guys unearthed all kinds of trashy treasure. Slashers, thrillers, stink bombs, 80's nostalgia, and obscure Dennis Hopper. Knowledgeable and involved reviews not only ably pick apart plot and characterization but often place the reviewers within the sordid culture that produced these flicks, adding fascinating personal depth. Quotable: "The most accessible movies are the ones that lack originality." [review from Zine World #27].

Mujinga €2
"This latest edition (Feb 2009) of my perzine is quite arty and features two quite long articles, one about Danish cinema, the other about self-immolation. There was going to be an essay about Foucault and activism for social change, but in the end I trashed it in an aesthetically pleasing way. There is also another wicked drawing from Richblabla." (from Mujinga site)

Razorcake
DIY punk rock fanzine from America primarily dedicated to supporting independent music culture.
