Fanzines!
I love printed fanzines! Here are two terrific new zines that everyone should check out:
The Imaginary Zine is a full 60-pages recounting the first 10 years of the influential Three Imaginary Girls music website. Only 333 handcrafted zines were made, and each includes a cd of rare, live, or exclusive songs by a number of bands including The Long Winters, Visqueen, Boat, Tullycraft, Math & Physics Club and many more! Pick this up while supplies last. Order your copy here.
The new issue of Candy Twist (from the Netherlands) is 108 pages and it features interviews with Allo Darlin’, Tullycraft, Sea Lions, The Great Leap Forward, Skinny Girl Diet, Martha, Young Romance, The Wendy Darlings, Sock Puppets, Withered Hand and Mike ‘HHBTM’ Turner. There’s also a round table with Sean Price, Kip Berman, Gail O’Hara, Pete Green, Roque Ruiz, Matt Haynes and Mike Turner. The first 100 copies will include an art postcard provided by Pete Bowers.

Video of the Day
Fishboy has a new album called Classic Creeps out on HHBTM Records. Today we have a video for the album’s first single “Alyson Revere”. Enjoy!
On this day…
On this day in 1983 New Order performed at the historic First Avenue in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The nightclub is considered to be a cornerstone of the Midwest music scene, and the starting point for virtually every single band to come out of the Twin Cities, including The Replacements, Hüsker Dü, and Prince. The First Avenue was the nightclub that appeared in Prince’s 1984 film Purple Rain.
