This is not the first issue of Zine Death Metal. My first encounter is with the 'Female metal tribute' issue (issue #37) which I will talk about it in another post.

In June 2021 celebrated their 13 years in existence. 13 a good number is it? And came out #41.

About this zine, half of the zine is English. After reaching the centerfold, flip it and there's the same band & content/layout in Portuguese in the other half. Interesting concept but you are paying for the other half that you can't read (or read it in English).

The layout is in cut n paste style using old type writer font. The pages numbered but no table of content.

Before the start of the interview, there's no introduction but there are some notes (band name, genre, country, interviewee, date of the interview & band's contact address or email). 

Questions are around 13 to 15. The topics are mostly on music. Answers by the band are very long. I think the original one was made 'live' in Portuguese (to the bands from that region) than translated to English.

Torturer is from Canada, not the one from Chile. So take note on this.

In review section the layout different. Its in white background with page border. The reviews are not rated and not alphabetically arranged.

There is a section called "See You in Hell". In this section is about band's line-up that has died recently. Not sure whether this is a regular section but it is a first time me seeing this.

My copy is hand numbered 70 of 200.

I bought couple more issues until in issue...f (I don't remember which issue now) where the editor mentioned there are some issues with the postal services (or whatever, that is beyond his control).

He apologies but I haven't get that issue. I stop buying afterwards.
