Paperback. THE COVEN Zine was the early '90s Death Metal, Grindcore, Black Metal, and Doom Metal fanzine from Billy Nocera, the madman behind RAZORBACK RECORDS, EVILSPEAK MAGAZINE, and bands such as VAULTWRAITH, SURGIKILL, and many more, as well as the author of the book WASTE CITY: Splatterific & Sleazeotronic Movies. THE COVEN Zine Collection 1990 - 1992: Death Metal Days of a Horror-Worshiping Freak collects all 3 issues of this cult, underground fanzine that had documented a specific time in the older days of the Death Metal scene, right as the genre exploded into the mainstream and gave birth to the second wave of Black Metal at the same time. Through the eyes and ears (and foul mouth temperament!) of an obsessive and pissed off 14 to 16 year old teenager, THE COVEN is a rare look into the past of a scene and genre that was originally raw, messy, uglier, and defined by "cut and paste" publications printed in very low amounts and spread within "snail mail" letters and packages through a worldwide network that now mostly exists exclusively on the internet. Long before emails, podcasts, streaming, and social media, THE COVEN dwelled in an era where anything went and being offensive and crude was the name of the game! Dig deep inside these carnage-loaded pages and you'll read vintage interviews with bands such as IMPETIGO, ATOMIC FEAR, PHANTASM, OSSUARY, CARRION LORD, NECROFEST, PHLEGM, INCARNIS, MORTA SKULD, EMBRIONIC DEATH, ROTTREVORE, HEADROT, SORROW (aka Apparition), HUMAN REMAINS, BATHYM, ORDER FROM CHAOS, ABSU, VITAL REMAINS, EDGE OF SANITY, DEMONCY, CATACOMB, GUT, PROFANATICA, DEMIGOD, SAMAEL, FUNERAL FEAST, FESTER, GOREFEST, CRUCIFIER, CENTINEX, CONVULSE, SINOATH, LACERATION, IMPALED NAZARENE, PYREXIA, NECROPHOBIC, NECRONY, and the very obscure 7" EP vinyl label ROTTEN RECORDS. In these 200 pages, you'll read hundreds of reviews and articles on tons of other Death, Black, Grind, Doom bands, albums, demos, and EPs of the time, and see many rare and old ads and flyers that also helped define the underground metal scene of the era. You'll also learn the secret beginnings of THE COVEN itself and its early wars and battles with a hypocritical religious radio talk show and host that is now the stuff of legend! BE WARNED! THE COVEN ZINE is not for the faint of heart! These pages are scans of the actual fanzine and are as raw as it gets! Do not expect a "pristine" experience at all! STAY SICK, AND DON'T FORGET TO SEND BACK THOSE STAMPS! This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
