Been wanting to read this zine. Was lucky enough it landed it mailbox before it is shipped to the next destination. This is "The Fourth Morbid Knocking" with materials/interviews compiled from 2003 to 2011. 

The editor Rnld and fellow writers/contributors Re Vore, Theby, Timo and few others gathered very interesting material to read. Look at the band's featured. The interviews questions on average 15 or more questions. Mayhem interview originally appeared in Pestisterous Tales #1 (1990) was answered by Dead. The followed by Mayhem gig review in 2008 onwards.

Table of content is available, not in the usual way but it's there. Layout-wise 3 to 5 columns per page. I can't remember when the last time was seeing 5 columns per page being used. It's very rare, very compact looking. The editor also uses page border and very small fonts. Some are in cut n paste style. The centerfold is the most awesome as you can see.

The reviews are scattered and not rated some with front cover or logo of the band. Reviews are not that many actually. Cover music, zine and ended with books reviews.

Gig reviews are plenty. Example is Nuclear War Now! Festival (Berlin 2010). Also presented are some articles/gig reviews on bands (witchcraft, Cultes Des Ghoules, Kandor, Sanctum, Armoros, Pentagram, Master's Hammer, Count Raven, Cruciamentum). There are many more I may have not included here. And some short interviews with metalheads.

To answer one of the questions; Yes. My hand is dirty after complete reading this issue. The offset printing ink do cause this sometimes, it smells nice so overall a pleasant experience.
