Couple of later after the release of #41, so soon came #42.

Layout-wise the same like previous issue. And so does the content like before start the interview, there are short info (the band's name, genre, country, interviewee, interview date).

In glossy paper for the cover. All in black and white. The pages are numbered, no table of content, cut n paste style, type writer font style. Questions less than 20. 16 on average. Questions are about current music/releases, lyric/theme of the band, history.

Gorgon is the best 16 answers in this zine. The other are OK too.

The reviews cover music only. They are not rated and not alphabetically arranged. Less than 20 reviews and that's the end of this zine. The layout here is in 2 columns per page, some with page border and using the type writer font type. The old school-look still present. 

Flip on the other side, the other half is the Portuguese version of the magazine of the same bands. Not sure the content the same or not (just like the previous issue) but I believe they are translation in this language.

I saw some question in English section was not translated to English. Why?

I was curious on why Sonneillon add 'Black Metal' to its name. But this was not asked in the interview. Might be there is a Sonneillon Death Metal out there.

Hand numbered 72 of 200. My copy of issue #41 was 70/200. That was close number.

"See You in Hell", section of band's line-up that has died recently. It's a regular feature.

Our own martyr Nighcrawler and Zen are in the pages as well. Rest in Power my brothers!!!

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.
