NECROSCOPE Zine #20 review

NECROSCOPE Zine #20 (Poland)
2008
156 pages A5 English written
As written on the cover, here is the real devilish jubilee of Adam's NECROSCOPE Metalzine!!! 14 years of underground metal dedication, here is the particularity of this new issue as Adam wrote an article about all the past issues and the evolution of the zine through the years. If you take into account that the first issue dates back to 14 years, was composed of 27 pages on A5 format and written in Polish and slowly become thicker and thicker until it switched into english at the 15th issue which was also the first issue done with a computer, you can witness all the long way Adam has gone through.
The rest of the zine contains all the usual elements you can find on the previous issues: in-depht interviews and this time you can read about RUINS (from Germany), MISGIVINGS (proving again that we french people have to learn a lot of things about underground and promotion), ALMIGHTY SATHANAS, VOMEPOTRO, ARSON, PUTREFIED GENITALIA / STENCH OF VIRGINITY, PATHOGEN / NEGATRON, PAGANA USURPACION, SACRIFICIAL DAGGER, CHAINSAW (from Chile), NECROHOLOCAUST, BESATT and SEPTICOPYEMIA.
Tons of reviews to quench the thirst of the most depraved and curious maniac even if they are all a matter of taste it's a real informative catalog for any traders around.
The usual articles « Pearls from the abyss » with ultra obscure bands and stuff from the past, not sure that the young of today would be convinced to look for these old records but old maniacs can be pleased...if they are still alive; and « Tape traders, the forgotten race » that let one of the numerous traders of Adam talking about his metal addiction and how he was getting records in the 80's when Germany was halved.
I still advised you to get in touch with Adam and I still do it. Get in touch with him. Anyone having something for trade and able to make a decent package and send it through his local post office won't regret it.
