Industrial / noise / experimental magazines that has existed?

[FreakAnimalFinland]

It's the old information. I mean, even first issue of ALAP is more like book than "zine". Back then, I was told that issue #2 would be even bigger. When you got probably 200 pages, it's barely "magazine"...

But after this many years, it's hard to know what is status of magazine. It seems editors do not reveal status of magazine, so we'll just have to wait and see.

would love if the noisextra people could track down patrick marley of muckraker for an interview too. would probably cover a lot of the same ground as the seymour glass interview, but still. the glass interview could have been a couple hours longer and i'd have stuck around

what is the deal with ALAP? a book is being worked on?

Agreed to all that.  Seymour Glass was genial on the episode and I would've loved to hear much more — seems there's a hundred other topics they could've touched upon.  I could even picture it as a series of interviews, each one focusing on an issue of Bananafish.  But SG probably has other things to do, that would take a lot of his time.

Muckraker was not as great but it'd still be an interesting interview.

And I do hope ALAP 2 comes out in some form one day.

Just another voice here to say that I thought the Seymour Glass podcast was excellent.  He's such a great dude with endless reserves of interesting things to say and has a really nice voice to boot so it was an all round great listen.  I'm not really a fan of noisextra though I do really respect that they do it and would never criticise it for anything beyond simply not being to my taste, but this episode was excellent.  I'll definitely keep an eye on it for future interviews with more interesting characters.

1. Pat Marley's around. He covers politics for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Dunno that he'd have the time/resources to fly out to LA to talk to the gang, but I agree, it'd be a good interview. I don't think he's really done any writing about music since contributing to Bixobal, the five-issue Eric Lanzillotta zine from the early oughts. If you wanna buy some records from his collection, his discogs ID is mir71.

2. I appreciate that people are still keeping a candle burning, but I regret to inform you that As Loud As Possible is officially, formally dead. I (Chris) am working on a few projects, one of which will sweep up and publish some of my in-progress pieces for ALAP #2, the other being a totally new thing but with similar focus. Aiming for August of this year for the latter, but no promises ever (for obvious reasons...deadlines are not my strong suit, nor are sensibly-sized projects).

[aububs]

ha, well i appreciate you giving us closure

i hope some of the pieces that other people were working on for ALAP#2 surface in other areas too

I recently stumbled across Deft Esoterica zine, based in New York.  2 issues printed to date, 3rd being worked on now.
Subject matter is noise / drone / experimental.
I ordered mine via Bandcamp - https://deftesoterica.bandcamp.com/

And for some shameless self publicity, issue 7 of my Snare Rush zine is out around the end of this month, featuring Gaelic ritual industrial duo Salac and a whole array of other matters.

I had to dig through my browser history forever to find this but I think it will be of much interest to people here.  It is a blog that has an impressive selection of rare zines going way back that deal with noise/pe music.  Most of the links are still active and I have found a veritable treasure trove of great zines on here.  If you have a moment go ahead and give it a gander:

I have scans of ND 5, 6, 8-10, and 13.  I would be glad to upload them, but it would take a while for me to get to it.  I would think the Die or D.I.Y. blogger might have more of them and might respond to a request.  That's just a guess though.

I would take you up on that if and when you have the time - it's certainly no emergency or anything, your gesture is great enough. That blog is really cool too. I became aware of it a few months ago & was happy to see a healthy selection of City of Worms tapes on there.

All the [ND] links at this blog are still good.  JPGs in good quality.  My bet is that is where I got them.

I have also found issue 3 on that site : http://www.haltapes.com/nd-3.html

LIFE WITHOUT SEX- Vagina Dentata Organ; no idea if that is the only issue

LIFE WITHOUT SEX had its first issue in 1993 (number 0), then number 1, and the last issue was number 2 in 1995.
After that, Bärn Balta, the author of the publication, only focused on newletters (Trevor Brown profile, The Haters discography, Interview with JP Turmel/Sordide Sentimental) plus "special issues" which functions like essays : GPO, 47Ashes, Jap'Noise (with interviews with Aube, Incapacitants, Government Alpha, The Gerogerigegege and K2). As a very personal and handmade publication, the issues have a very irregular pace yet LFS is still active. The last special issue is from last year, on the more than obscure and conceptual italian art project Lateral Agriculture Order.
By the way The Vagina Dentata Organ special issue is dowloadable via this forum :

Regarding other french zines from the nineties, we can also add OMEGA (more post-punk and industrial at its beginning, evolving in a more neofolk direction), and SYMPOSIUM (more ritual and industrial evolving with more experimental and power electronics bands). Both zines have operated from 1992 to 1996.
Here you can see the covers of all issues :

The only online pdf of these 2 zines I have found is the issue 3 of Omega :

Hey very cool, thanks for this link!

Has anyone come across a place that has Bananafish pdf's / scans?

No, but an awful lot of them are still available and Seymour will send them to you in exchange for just postage if you ask via Tedium House.  I have about 5 next to me I didn't have.

[impulse manslaughter]

A friend just gave me ND #4, #6 and #12. Nice reading material while stuck at home..

[Batteryxcage]

I don't think I saw anything on the previous posts, but is there anyone out there who has scans of Dutch zine Material? Apparently ran by the person who performed as Odal and ran Nihilistic Recordings.

[impulse manslaughter]

Material zine was hardly distributed. Probably only a few copies of each issue were made for trading.

I've got a French fanzine called Incinerateur No. 9 which I never see anyone talk about, although maybe that's just because I don't hang around the French part of the internet enough. It's got Coil, In the Nursery, Vox Populi, and others I don't know. No date, looks like late '80s.
