COMPLETE NECRO Zine #3 review


COMPLETE NECRO Zine #3 (Poland)
2008
50 pages A4 English written

Poland has a strong and devoted underground scene and actually I am impressed by the numerous printed zines popping up out there (unfornunately some of them are written in Polish so my investigation about them are limited). Some others like COMPLETE NECRO Zine are written in english so as to reach underground die hard into the old school scene of death, black and thrash metal mostly. The editor Michal (who also sings and plays drums in GOAT TYRANT)has a precise idea of what metal shall be and, of course shall not be!
So his Zine is all about honesty and passion into the old cult of death, so do not expect any kind of modern or openminded stuff in his pages.
The interviews featured show completely the editor's state of mind: VULCANO, DESTRUKTOR, ZEMIAL, SUICIDAL WINDS, ARES KINGDOM, GOATLORD, NECROS CHRISTOS, HELLISH CROSSFIRE, SHACKLES, RUINS and DROWNED. These chats are well done and the bands are usually cooperative. Now you have to be into the styles of the bands featured or probably don't give a fuck about them.
There is also a shitload of reviews (about Zines, CD, tapes and vynil which is the king as you can imagine), rather short but able to give you a brief overview of what the band is able, well at least if it fits the editor's tastes and when that's not the case, it's unmercifully crushed, and that's probably a negative point here as you don't know much more about the band as Michal doesn't develop his opinion.
As said at the beginning, the zine focuses mainly on old school death/black/thrash metal so no room for brutal death or grind, so do not expect any sort of review in you play the styles mentioned, you could wait for a review until you die!
Some live-reports can be found and are written by one friend of the editor and he's named Satanic Metal Playboy. He's a funny lad and his descriptions are quite cool as he behaves like a true headbanger and drinks like the devil.
If you're an old school bastard, no doubt that this stinking cut n' paste rag is for you!
