Lieve Gemeinde

The layout is not the fancy type of magazine layout. It looks more like a small book. Printed on glossy paper. Just normal 2 columns (for interview and zine reviews) and 3 columns for music reviews. But these are on grey background image so it doesn't look dull and boring.

The fonts are really small and the edge/border of paper is less than 1 centimeter. Meaning you are reading more than 140 pages of A5 if using the normal size fonts. That's a lot to read in an issue.

Only if I understand German.

Music reviews (tape & CD) are separated to multiple sections. I can't figure out how the stuffs is being categorize or selected in these sections. The sections are "Headbangers Heaven", "Headbangers Hell".

Oh, and then it continues with Fanzine reviews, DVD review and Leserattennest before continue again music reviews in "Headbangers Stuff".

And lastly another music review in "Perlen var dia Säve" (can find some vinyl here).

The reviews very long but the fanzine reviews are even longer. Half page is just for 1 zine.

The "Das Panoptikum des Gravens" is a very long read. 25 pages on this alone.

G.U.C stands for German Underground Crossection. I got this old issue for free (pay postage only from schattenmanns.wordpress.com) so I think it is good to add in my site.

Besides being a magazine, it is also a label. The website link written in the mag not working anymore. If not, I wanted to check their latest updates.
