The writing styleisn’t the same as what I’m used to seeing in zines—it’s more thoughtful and informational than punchy and adventurous.

MAXIMUMROCKNROLL #335
$4, 8 ½” x 11”, newsprint, 128 pgs.
By Jimmy Alvarado
For me, this wasmore like running into an old friendyou used to constantly hung out with twenty-seven years ago—nice, warm ‘n’ familiar feelings towards ‘em, and it’s good to see they’re doing all right and still raising a ruckus, butonce you get past the superficial pleasantries and start delving a little deeper, you start to remember why you stopped hanging around ‘em so much.
