Barbies Dead Issue 33 (September/October 2012)

This fanzine has now been running for years, and maintains the cut 'N' paste haphazard style that featured in many a punk fanzine circa 1976-85. In the clean-cut world of web-design where a lot of olde fanzine editors now take refuge, it is refreshing to see this old format survive into the 21st century.

Alex (Mike Alexander) has been slowly reviewing the Subs discography in each issue, along with his articles on some of his favourite things, ranging from punk, music, other zines and also cycling.

Good to see the variety in this as the editor's personality shines through. The current issue is A4 size with 21 printed pages, and herein lies the usual punk-based reviews, rants and writings, along with another Truro FC piece, loads of zine, CD and record reviews, and bits about Alex's big love - cycling.

Of interest to Subs fans in this issue is some reviews of T&M stuff as well as a brilliant 6 page account of Alex's April 2012 trip to Japan to see his brother - who lives there - along with a coincidental (!!!) taking in of a UK Subs gig on 8/4/2012... Superb reading...

Give yourself a treat, and something different to read - this zine is always fun to read, and a bargain to boot!

COVER PRICE - ONLY 50 pence
