A 'zine post today. Recently me and comrade Kurgan conspired to acquire some old fanzines, with him assisting in the funding I got the 'zines and scanned them and now post here for your benefit. Not much of an evil plot, is that? Anyways, this one was something I had forgotten existed, see the earlier post here for more on KY 'zine's history. I was under the impression issue 4 was the final one but this came out two years later, delayed due military service. I'm pretty sure this one is the last chapter then!
Lay-out and pretty much everything else remains same from the previous issues and several of the interviewees are making a reappearance as well. Overall I don't find the line-up very exciting as many of these people appeared in several 'zines all the time in that time frame (especially Behemoth), the Bathory interview was a rare one, yet I seem to recall him appearing a bit more around that time in general, following the release of Blood on Ice. It's a pity Timo did only two of the interviews as Esa's were quite formulaic here. Besides the interviews there are reviews, mostly negative, all over the 'zine, a page of gig reports and an amusing journal of the guys' trip to Saarijärvi. If you enjoyed reading the 4th issue I'm sure you'll like this one too!
Hmmm, interesting business strategy...suggesting that readers kill themselves would leave nobody to sell their magazine to.
VastaaPoista@kp:
VastaaPoistaI'd always figured it like they buy the magazine and then kill themselves! Though I have to agree it's not a very good plan if one makes multiple issues.
If you read the entry (yes you did) for the previous issue it had a brief history of the 'zine and obviously when they went all black metal they needed a more wicked, nasty name than the old Rotted Anus which was pretty badass in its own way (aaargh!).
Hahahaa, total KVLT ZINE! Thanks Velkaarn for scans!
VastaaPoista@Grev:
VastaaPoistaYou also missed this one? You're welcome to return to it now a few years later!
@Velkaarn. I have KY-zines already (and mighty Rotted Anus)
VastaaPoistaI don't need to scan KY #5. because you've already did it and that saves my time a lot :)
@Grev:
VastaaPoistaAh, cool! Skannaile joku päivä kun oikein tylsistyt R.A.#1, huvittaisi kovasti lukea sekin!
@Velkaarn: Se olisi ensin hankittava toimiva skanneri. Vanha meni paskaksi, SHIT!
VastaaPoistaMutta, pidetään mielessä ;)
