INVASIONS BARBARES Zine #3 review


INVASIONS BARBARES Zine #3 (France)
Autumn 2008
50 pages A5 French written

My landmate Abel really impresses me a lot with this third issue of INVASIONS BARBARES Zine. First, his zine is free and that's really a commercial suicide according to me, his zine is worth a decent amount of money if you consider the work he compiled in there. The fact it's free doesn't mean the zine to be fucked up and shitty. No, here you have a nice cut n' paste done zine, made with dedication and a patent underground spirit. The whole lay-out remind me SENTINELLE Zine and a bit COPULA CUM DAEMON Zine. However, Abel the editor has definitively a cool state of mind and doesn't play the game of the tough or evil guy. He's very clever at preparing interviews and for this issue you can read impious words by OSIRION, CIRCE, ZÖLDIER NOÏZ, IN EXTREMIS Zine and DEWARSTEINER (I would have endure more inties though). You just have to speak french to fully enjoy this rag.
The reviews are well written and cover a lot of stuff like CD, Zines, tapes, vynil... sometimes you need to bend your head to read vertically. About the reviews, my main reproach is about the too large amount of black metal stuff, some bands are too overrated for me. Another bad thing, where are the bands' contacts, you lazy bastard???
Live gigs can be found as well, mainly from the dirty cave of Angers (when Abel lives), but many underground played there in the past like BORGIA, INKISITOR, ASMODEE, CARNAL LUST, etc...
A really promising zine and a must have for french-speaking metalheads, so get in touch, send your demos/promos, love letters to Abel (and the beast). Speak French or die!
