Article
Bubonic Plague

This is old stuff. I watermarked it with my old logo and kept as draft for many years.

Layouts are great, the pages are numbered and have table of content, very professional magazine-like style. The use of graphic in black & white is good (pictures of forest, old castle, church, graveyard). The text overlapping on black picture is not cool though fortunately there are not many.

"Black and Doom Metal Underground Zine", as they said it. Featuring BM, heathen pagan oriented or depressive BM bands. The editor, DM manage to craft essential & interesting questions in the short series of interviews. This able to generate good answer from. One page only consumed one page on small font size. The longest is with Bilskirnir. Only 3 lines of questions and answered in like 30 lines (almost 4 pages).

No reviews though. Also need to mention here Mournful Congregation and Dornenreich taken from Serpente webzine.

Beside this, and article on Bubonic Plague that happen in Western world hundreds year ago there is also.

A Section on dark folk underground titled "Forest of Folk" featuring short bio and discography of Seven Pines, Wolfsblood, and Sonnehagal.

Laudatio Funebris is an interesting zine mainly because of the concept of the zine because not many that I know of focussing this kind of genre.

Released by Bubonic Prod in 500 copies. Their weblink no longer work though. Some distros like Herege Warfare or Schattenmanns still have this.
