The Dictator and Grand Poobah over at the irreverent PULP METAL MAGAZINE, Jason Michel has been turned on, tripped up and stumbled over all around the world on a self imposed exile. He is a hack purveyor of penny dreadfuls and flash nightmares of daytime who now lives in France. For his sins.

“I don’t want to eat it” – An interview with Lynn Alexander

Lynn Alexander

by Jason Michel

Lynn Alexander is an indomitable force in the Underground Literature Scene. She is described by the Literary Underground Wiki as “an American writer, artist, poet, and independent producer of publications and web content” but she is so much more than this. She is a defiantly independent individual who, amazingly in this day & age of apathy, actually retains a spark of the Radical Press. She produces one of the best fiction & poetry ‘zines out there – the mighty FULL OF CROW , which was an inspiration for the ‘zine that you’re reading now, as well as being a regular contributor to the non-fiction political opinion ‘zine ON THE WING.

Ladies & gents, a bit of respect. Please.

Come & caw with us!

“We’re Sanktuary. We like beer, hockey and Metal”

By Jason Michel

Something is going on in the far North of the Americas. Something loud, hairy & with a whiff of the Good Old Days & Brimstone. First there was Skull Fist amongst the virtual pages of this very ‘zine bringing their Traditional Metal Gospel to great unwashed masses. Now, there is Sanktuary from the Yukon, Canada, way up there in the frozen tundra. It could be the place that inspired 30 Days Of Night & it certainly has helped to influence these long haired miscreants by bringing us The Bad News of Metal with their latest demo Black Magic Brew.

So, get your Devil’s Horns out & join me as I bring you Sanktuary!
