Volume Doping is “a fanzine dedicated to documenting the music scene & DIY culture in & around Vermillion, S.D.” I had no idea that Vermillion existed, so I was stoked to have a little window into their world and to wonder what it would be like to live there while reading their show/record reviews. Then there are some interviews with their own Sasqwash, Grex, and Cloud Dog. One part I found to be a bit weird was the list of songs for a break-up mix tape, picked by people around the scene, which contained some really, really terrible suggestions. Zines like this make me wish that back in my traveling days, I spent more time detouring into tiny towns like this one and not just hitting up the big cities and hyped places like Gainesville. –Craven Rock (VermIllest@gmail.com)
