Full text of "Interpol Times 12 (1997)
"
See other formats
Good citizens! another issue of the Interpol has been and gone, however your friendly officers at scene police
headquarters have not been dormant, NO!! we assure you that while you spent summer months exercising your
right to being general slobs and laziness we were out collecting relevant information and investigating certain
corrupt scenesters, and that slime pit that many punks call home, THE SCENE!!!
The crime this issue seems to be religion. That certain disease that plagues society and individual
thought. That certain disease which captivates and brainwashes our precious Youth of Today(no pun intended).
For I assure you it will not be tolerated.!! Take head of the words contained within and be true to yourselves.
and remember to inform on a friend is to help a friend. So until the same Interpol time, on the same Interpol
channel, next time. BEHAVE!!
Finally i’m finished with all the fucking typing, layouting, glueing & i can now bring this to get published!!
We all have waited quite some time for this, but here it is : INTERPOL TIMES # 12-the all out religious issue.
As you see, our main topic’s religion & what a controversial topic it is.... It took us some time to do research on
cults & all, but the outcum is pretty respectible. now, you won’t find any upside down crosses, mangled
Jesuses, burning nuns etc, cuz i’m kinda supersticious (yeah, yeah i know i’m a sad old fart). You will find that
cool cut & paste layout on diffrent paper, tho. Our old copy shop closed down, so we had to print it, i sure hope
the quality will be equal or better...let’s see.
The cold months are starting again, so remember what i said last issue & make a change. I for example am
putting a F oodNotBombs-branch up in my area with the help of some other I.T.-writers & a buncha dudes &
dudettes fromCologne. Lets see if we can bring a little color to our big cities.
We're expanding like hell, our new staff is working more& more (alltho they could learn typing for a change),
& we'll get even bigger next issue. Label news include our name-change to SCENE POLICE & the awesome
CouchPotatoes CD out Nov,Dec 97. Later releases will be the Gruff LP, a Tumult/Crunch split (77) & more. It
all will still be done from our homes, cuz we can’t affort an office like the allmighty Revolution Inside, which
i’ve joined as well. So if you call them or write them, it’s likely you’ll have me babbling shit. While writing
this i’m real sick....in a physical way, arsehole! I caught the flue, am doing last minute typings with my fingers
bleeding..whine, moan, whine....damn i’m starting to sound like all those other zine-bosses. Okay i’ll zip it, 1
sure hope you'll enjoy this....no scratch that. Here it is finally:
issue #12-punk as fuck!!!

om,
+ =
= i,
Its not until you actually start
reading into a particular religion that you
find out how corrupt and riddled with
holes the whole thing is. Well at least
thats what I found when I started to do
more in depth reading on christianity and
its roots. I think it was nearly two years
ago that an old friend mentioned the name
“Barnabus” when having a _ long
discussion about various religions. What I
heard about this particular person and his
relation to christianity stuck with me for a
long while. I decided to read up on this
guy and the shit i’d been hearing. What I
found out was incredible to say the least
but at the same time not at all surprising.
Chistianity and the basis its founded upon
is 2 fake just like al) the other organised
religions of this world and the evidence is
out there all you have to do is go out and
find it, But lets start from the
beginning.(Note: My research on this
subject was done through 3/4 main books
that I shall list at the end if you’d like to
read. up on what i’ve written here.
‘he gospel of Barnabus is the
only known surviving gospel that was
written by a disciple of Jesus, that is by a
man who spent most of his time in the
actual company of Jesus during the three
years in which he was delivering his
message. It is therefore said that he had
direct experience and knowledge of all of
Jesus’ teachings, unlike all the authors of
the other four accepted gospels. If one has
the time to read it and examine it it is at
least if anything else an eye witness
account of the life of Jesus. It was he who
above all endeavoured to hold to the pure
teaching of Jesus and opposed any
innovators, notably Paul of Tarsus. Now
this is where things start to get slightly
dodgy! Once Jesus had died many of the
apostles scrammbled to. write down the
life and teachings of their dead master. As
did Barnabus and Paul in which tension
was mounting between the two due to
disagreements on the interpretation of
Jesus’ teachings. Barnabus’ gospel
showed Jesus for the actual human being
that he was i.e: 4 normal practicing Jew
preaching the word of God He
maintained the idea that Jesus had no
intention of creating a new religion
through his ideas. a thought like that
would seem horrific both to Jesus and
barnabus himself. There was nothing in
the message of jesus as understood by him
and many other disciples to necessitate a
break from what was clearly the
continuance and revivifying _the
affirmation of the guidance which Moses
had brought. This also meant that Jesus
could not be the messiah, or in other
words that ridiculuos thought that he is
the son of God. For a Jew to proclaim
himself the messiah would have been a sin
and Jesus according to barnabus was a
practicing Jew. so the whole basis for the
christian religion that Paul will later
provide i’e: the divine trinity is already
disproven by Barnabus’ gospel. This is the
first real idea that I wanted to tatk about. I
mean the thing that has been forced down
millions of peoples throughts for
centuries, this idea that Jesus was the son
of God is obviously a hoax! and it
becomes more obvious when Paul starts to
get involved in the whole thing.
Paul of Tarsus was obviously one
of the more intelligent of the disciples, he
knew that he could take advantage of the
death of Jesus and create this whole new
religion with him riding at the helm.
What would make this religion work and
be different would be yep you guessed it to
create the mythical figure that Jesus
was’nt. The only obstacle to all this was of
course Barnabus. Paul apparently went
into the Arabian desert to formulate his
own version of Jesus’ teachings. This
involved a rejection of Jewish law, again
contradicting the life and teachings of
Jesus. When he returned to meet with the
disciples, he claimed to have access to
Jesus which had been denied to the closest
followers while he was on earth. The
teachings he claimed he had been given
did not even tally with what the apostles
had heard from the very lips of Jesus.
Both Barnabus and another apostle Peter
believed that Paul’s new doctrine was in
the main a purely personal creation of his
own.A Schweitzer, in his book “Paul and
his Interpreters, says that “Paul never
appealed to the sayings and commands of
So Pauls vision was created and
the Christian religion founded, founded
upon false beliefs by a clever and power
hungry man. the many years that
foolowed made sure that Pauls idea would
grow and flourish. UR-Rahim writes “In
325 A.D the famous council of Nicea was
held . The doctrine of the trinity was
declarde to be the official doctrine of the
Pauline church. Only four gospels made it
to the bible. The remaining gospels
including the gospel of Barnabus were
ordered to be completely destroyed. It was
also decided that all gospels written in
hebrew should be destroyed. An edict was
issued stating that anyone found in
possesion of an unauthorised gospel
especially Barnabus’s would be put to
death. This was the first well organised
attempt to remove all the records of
Jesus’s original teaching, wether in
human beings or books.” The attempt to
get rid of the gospel was not succesful
though and the attempts carried on. Pope
damascus 366 AD is recorded as having
issued a decree that the gospel of barnabus
should not be read. It was included in his
list of Apocryphal books. APOCRYPHA
simply means hidden from the people. It
was also forbidden by the decree of the
western churches and Pope Innocent that
the “evangelium Barnabe is included in
the list of forbidden books. This famous
list was also known as the INDEX, a list
_of books christians were not to read on
“eae pain of death and eternal punishment. I
*
his master.” But this is what he had in aaa
mind if he was to create a new religion, he Same ;
wanted to be accredited for the Sage
explanation of the new revelations and §
teachings. So when Barnabus his main
oppsition retired to Cyprus he got his
chance. Paul took his show on the road as
| SESE ame aes
it were, where people started hearing &
about jesus with no comparison to the &
apostles version. Pauls main aim was to §
prpare the way for completely changing §
peoples idea of who Christ was. More
importantly he was being changed from a
man to a conception in people’s minds.
This misconception being that of the
“divine Jesus”, Jesus the son of GOD!!
guess it makes you wonder hey? After a
lot of reading I’ve done Ican’t help
beliving that this is true or at least near
the truth, and reafirms the fact that
religion is used by power mongers to
control weak and simple minded people, it
always has and always will. Its also weird
to think how many million souls have
perished in the name of christianity, in the
name of this fake religion. Ending on a
cheesy note The truth is out THERE!!! go
find it!
Check out any books by these authors, if
you want a proper list just write me:
UR - Rahim
H. Zahrt
A A. Schweitzer
. Schonfeld.
S basic misconception evolved abd
became established , many a man thought
(and still think) that they are following
Jesus when in fact they followed Paul
without knowing it. so when people like
Heinz Zahrnt called Paul a “corrupter of
the gospel of Jesus” there was justification
in it. another historian Schonfeld wrote
“The Pauline heresy became the
foundation of Christian orthodoxy and the
legitimatechurch owas disowned as
heretical, thus Barnabus became the arch -
heretic.

when you think about it, religion’s actually a
buncha crap! i guess the others already gave
you a good insight about all that! i personally
will be talking about the way many of todays
religions treat their women! oh no, you
shouldn’t worry, it’s not that i’'ve become one
of those PC-dicks, it’s just that this concernes
us all. religion has & still is layed out for men.
it’s rare that you see female priests or the like.
you have your share of female godesses, but
they all submit to their male counterparts. for
example the old roman godesses had cool
powers & all, but were humped by Zeus. you
never read anything about them humping
Zeus. they might’ve not been been
trustworthy, & screwed Zeus over, but in the
end they all answered to his judgement!!
so right now i’m gonna educate y’all on some
religions:
i think ll start off with Krishna, one of the big
HC-phases of the late 80’s till the middle of the
90’s. it affected us all when Ray & Purzell got
sXe involved in religion, but this isn’t the space
to accuse them, & i think it’s been done too
many times!! Krishna religion actually
preaches sexism!! the devotees seperate the
women from the men in the temple! a woman-
devotee can’t become as fully self realized, so
they aren’t equal to their male counterparts!
Chapter 1, text 40 of the Bhagavad Gita (the
holy book of Krishna written by his divine
grace AC_ Bhaktivedanta 8. Swami
Prabhupada) states:
»women are generally not very intelligent &
therefore not trustworthy“. cool, huh? this
kinda reminds me of the Ferengi (a StarTrek
species that’s all bout business). their rules of
acquisition forbid a woman to ever do
business cuz they ain’t trustworthy. they also
have to run round naked!
that’s why you have male Krishna devotees
selling shit on the streets& chanting in public,
while female devotees stay on the farms & milk
cows, or get ,, raped“ by their god Krishna, who
once stole the clothes of bathing
shepparettes, to do shit to them later!
(somewhere in the BhagavatGita, i was too
lazy to look that up!)
the islam, one of the fastes growing religion of
today, isn’t any better, maybe worse! the
Islamic Empire was founded 622 AD (isn’t it
weird how we all took the birth of Jesus =
beginning of time for granted 7?) by the prophet
Mohammed. the Muslims believe in their holy
book, the KORAN & Mohammed’s decisions &
behavioural conducts, aka the SUNNA. the
Koran was written down, while the Sunna has
been delivered by mouth over the centuries.
It’s every muslim’s duty to devote themselves
to god & live by the Koran & the Sunna .isilamic
tribes fight over the meaning of the Sunna
(especially the big ones: the Shiits & the
Sunits) & their emphasis on how much one
should follow it s principles. Islam (translated
from arabic: devotion) doesn’t know any race
f# diffrences, but women are hella diffrent from
aa men!!
a mulim male can have up to 4 wifes & a
buncha ,,sidewifes“! it’s looked bad upon not
being married & if a female ain’t married,
they’ll lose all face in society. females are just
married to someone by their family (mostly the
father, who’s the boss at home!), they can’t
choose for themselves. all these facts differ
from tribe to tribe, the Alevits for example see
females in a very diffrent ( & slightly better)
light than maybe the Arabic Tribes do. these
Arabic Tribes believe women have to mask
their beauty behind veils, so that’s why you
see Arabic men walking upfront a crowd of fat,
black ninjas!
religious leaders & teachers have
misinterpretted the writting of Mohammed, so
you have al these diffrent little sects in Islamic
countries. Turkey (not really an _ Islamic
country, but it’s central religion’s Islam!) is
very much like the States or Gmny, while in
Saudi Arabia even foreign women have to
»veil* up!
i remember my mom telling me when i was
small: ,if you misbehave the OEDGY’s gonna
get you!“ Oedgys were those fat black cloaked
Arabic women. my mom’s Turkish & she
wouldn’t even think about putting on a veil!
so while the men can adulterate, women are
left in the Harems, never to be seen again. it’s
the worst sin of a muslim woman to cheat on
their ,masters“, while men do it all the time!
In the religious society of Islam you seldom see women.
sexual equality, i don’t think so.
now let me get to one of the oldest religions,
4 that still dominates all of western civilizations:
Christianity.
i know Mother Theresa was a good woman &
she did lotsa good, but she still was inferior to
ever done by nuns, priestesses or the like. f
only men stand up on the altar!! here’s why:
man (not Woman) was created in the image of
god, who is believed to be an old fart with a
white beard. Woman was made from Adam’s
(first man-if you believe the Bible) rib!
therefore is lesser than man!
what a buncha bollox!!
And then of course there’s all them cults,
where it’s usually women that get killed as
human sacrifices, never men! The virgin that
gets sacrificed in Satanism (sorry, not a cult,
but pretty fitting in this context!) has to be}
female. Tell me why can’t it be a male virgin ? |
and why does SATAN have to be male?? It}
could just as well be a woman ( or af
transsexual! RAADDD)!). it’s just a buncha shit,
just like we’re let to believe JESUS is white. |
mean, he’s from Jerusalem, right? Now look at
all the Arabs that live there (oh, yeah, the
Jews) and now tell me he’s a blond, blue-eyed
chap....get my point......sorry, drifted off.
If you look at most (if not all) cults, you always
see women in lesser positions. Jehova’s
Witness have their women cook, breed & look
after the kids & cows. The Mormons can have
3 wifes and have strict rules just like any other
cult. Any one swaying’s fucked! The Manson
family had women & they all were obedient to
Charles Manson (more on this somewhere
else). the People’s Temple believed in a
woman lesser than a man & therefore she was
expendable! Etc etc etc.......
fashioned role model: a woman has stay at
home, breed, watch the kids & have me dinner
ready once i get home.
That just shows what a Suncha shit religion
actually is!!! -DPM
the pope, who is a man! there are no masses Ig
i can’t think of one religion or religious cult}
that actually liberates women from that old-]
Turkish parliament rejects attempt
to ban violence against women
WOLFGANG KOYDL
Istanbul - Sueddeutsche Zeitung
w Controversy is raging in Turkey over
whether husbands have the right to
beat their wives.
Absolutely, say members of parlia-
ment belonging to the Islamist party
Refah. The party has just, for the sec-
ond time, blocked a bill to make vio-
lence within marriage an offence.
And the devout parliamentarians are
bringing their own wives’ arguments
to bear to make their case for the value
of corporal punishment.
Saniye Sahin, for example, said
beating was “no problem” as far as she
was concerned.
“Blows are not a punishement,” she
said, and recommended that the lay
—— of the bill find out for them-
selves.
She said that both female parliamen-
tarians leading the bill were single and
so would not know.
The wife of Refah MP Kahraman
Emmioglu agreed. She advised the two
female ministers to marry devout
Moslems, saying they would then learn
some tolerance. Mrs Sultan Cetin was
particularly succinct: “No Moslem
husband beats up his wife without
good reason.”
According to this logic, marital
beatings are a necessity. A wife is
beaten in Turkey once every 18 sec-
onds, official statistics estimate.
A study by Haceteppe University in
Ankara concluded that 84 per cent of
all divorced women were hit during
their marriage; 70 per cent were
punched and 42 per cent needed hospi-
tal treatment as a result of being beaten
‘up by their husbands.
Men who beat up their wives have
the support of Islamic theologian Bekir
Topaloglu, among others. In his book
“Women in Islam” he wrote that a man
has a right to beat his wife if by doing
so he can save their marriage. (GNNS)
A perfect example for the oppression of women in countries where the main religion’s Islam
don’t get this wrong, tho. Turkey’s in no way an Islamic country like fe SaudiArabia is (see
picture below!

bondage cat licks his paw & comes to me.
bondage cat sees in technicolor & bondage cat sees you.
bondage cat sits on the porch in the sun, his head resting lightly on his paws.
he looks like his body is laying heavily, but he is weightless on the warm stone.
a cloud lazily drifts across the sun & bondage cat looks up disdainful,
he licks his a paw & lays his head back down.
the cloud drifts along & bondage cat is again bathed in warmth.
his tail twitches, his eyes open.
fast like a frogs tongue bondage cat is across the street, crouching beneath a car.
is he hunting i wonder? and i look for possible prey.
bondage cat sees more than i see.
his head pokes out from behind the tire, his technicolor eyes blazing on fire,
bondage cat sees me, i am his prey.
an orange cat with a black color is walking down the street of white concrete,
his green eyes are looking side to side at the red houses that line the street.
not too sure of where he is, the orange cat feels a slight apprehencion,
his whiskers twitch.
a cool breeze strolls in, licking down the upraised hairs of his back.
a screaming flash of animal tears through the air coming from behind a bed of yellow flowers.
the green eyes of the orange cat know the color of terror.
bondage cat’s technicolor eyes know the color of death.
there are cut flowers & grass
the smell of lavender & oranges
the warmth of the sun & the coolness of wind
two flys circle eachother sans regard of their surroundings.
bondage cat looks up at their lunatic alulations & rolls over,
stretching his back, sharing the sun’s warmth,
the two insects don’t pay bondage cat any attention.

w/ ain't no theologian S> i ain't even baptized, but somehow i got the impression that religion has an
effeet on my life. ./ mean it’s easy to tell any fundamentalist to stick their cross up their ass, but when
it cams down to religious aspects that our society has adopted over the centuries, you seriously ask
goarself if it still is plausible to tell them to fuck off. Jndustrioasness, honesty, logaltg, ete..S- lots
more.. are some of this society's greatest values, S> they have been erented by a religious mentalltity.
Who says you have to work your ass off to live a good life or who tells as to be a good boy/girt?
Why do you get married or respect your parents (even tho they just talk shit)??? you think you have
made ap your own mind, bat to be blatant, you're sure as hell being influenced by the Christian way of
life. Ciar whole society is founded upon Christian values. .) don’t thinkwe've got the echanee to change
anything aboat it S- that sacks! .) somochow feel cornered by this shit S- just sticking to an
anderground cultare doesn’t make me foll better? So i have to aceept it, tho i hate this feeling of being
manipulated into filling my life with sense S- thas forcing me ( Sp everyhody else) to act a certain
way. Zeligion is in everything we know S- you have to adopt something to erente your own personality
&- that’s the saddest part aboat it. Ys/e're all trying to be someone or something S- thereby get in
touch with the holy ones.
Religion equals civilization.
And so my advice to you is to go out S> kill, fuck around S>- piss thea letterboxes! Cheers!
PA-S. i jast want to make goa start thinking about things S- i hate writing : Go “Vegan, Jiank is this
8s pank is that, so if you aceuse me of writing nonsense you can go read the bible or listen to preachy

IMPACT, Bonn Gmny the times#7 1995
Q: you know how trendy it is nowadays to preach the holy message with ones’ band.
A: normally we could care less. to every band it s own. but this whole trend & it s massive spread is getting ridiculous, and most of all
hilarious. it remains a question how many really are religiously involved & believe, not just preach it off stage cuz it’s trendy. us... we don’t
preach any holy message.
GRUFF, Maryland, US _ the times#9 1996
Q:any last jokes? 3
A: Jesus & Moses come down from heaven & moses goes: ,, hey lesse if i can still part water!“. so he walks up & WHOOUUSHH! & water
parts . he then walks thru.
so Jesus goes on & Boom!, falls str8 into the water. he gets up, swims to the shore & goes: ,.moses, why doesn’t it work anymore?“
so moses goes: 1 don’t know, Jesus, maybe it’s the holes in your feet?“
ACHEBORN, Darmstadt, Gmny the times#10_1996
Q: does the name ACHEBORN have anything to do with anti-church motives, cuz on stage you had this cross with Jesus nailed on it with your
name on top?
A: i'm bom catholic & i live in a small town very influenced by religion, so as a consequence it also influenced me & my life. i was confronted
with christian symbols at a very early age, where i was not able to criticize what’s going on. we just like the mystical & dark symbols of the
church!
KNEELDOWN, Troisdorf, Gmny the times#10 1996
Q: religion?
A’s: _J: Religion totally sux
T: well, i think music is a letout for all kinds of thoughts. and every opinion should be heard. they can sing about feeding pidgeons for all i
care. if people wanna hear it & if they wanna do it, it’s ok.
S: well, religion’s cool. me & TUMULT are Satanists and....
T:didn’t you wanna keep your fuckin’ mouth shut?
QO: it sucks! i don’t wanna have nuthin’ to do with it!
BATTERY, washington DC, US the times#10 1997
Q: i remember Frodus play a show in a church & talking positive about that church!
A: it’s funny, the guy who had just interviewed me asked me about the tribals on our CD, if we were a religious band, and a couple of years
back everyone would’ve been: NO!! cuz Brian used to be anti-religious, his mom used to be a nun for like 9 years or sth. but my attitude
t’wards religion is like Graham’s: real layed back! well i guess you can tell im x-ian if you’re around me long enuff..... i don’t cuss!!
okay i cuss once in a while if sth goes really wrong & i feel real crappy but normally i don’t!
Q: sXe & vegetarianism
BE a eaccteed to me it’s a big decision to make. i’m x-ian, so are my parents, & veg-ism isn’t part of the x-ian religion whatsoever. i’m not saying
you can’t be a veg-arian x-ian, but it’s not sth you’re taught.
CLUSTERBOMBUNIT, south o’ Gmny, the times#11 1997
Q:what do you think about x-mas?
A: what should i think about it? it gets me cool presents!
EVERSOR, Italia the times#11 1997
Q: 1s Italy as religious as everyone makes it out to be? and what are your personnal views on it?
A: it’s true Italy is a very rel. country & don’t forget we have the pope!! concerning me, i’m not religious or better i don’t follow any religious
institutions. i want to be free from certain dogmas or prejudices typical of many of them. i don’t believe in a god as a raffiguration given to us
by the catholic church, but i believe in a god more alike a force or an idea. the same force that permits us to be humble, respectful with pthers
& that permits us to forgive and love our fellowmen, especially those who stay worser than us.
i also do not agree with this connection b’tween religion & music, especially within the HC scene. where the ideal from being free from certain
tules & institutions has always been supported & i don’t think oriental religions are too much diffrent from ours. anyway i don’t wanna accuse
anyone of being religious, me & Marco live in a religious family & i think that the problem of the faith is a serious & delicate question that
everyone must try to answer with his head & heart.
HOTWATERMUSIC, gainesville FL, us the times#11 97
Q: talking about religion, what do you think of it in & outside the scene?
A: religion, man, that’s very personnal. i’m not sure if it has anything to do with the music scene. someone’s spirituality shouldn’t be tampered
with by a group’s idealism- no matter how right it might be. it might be a part of certain punx’ lives but i don’t think it’s the scene’s problem,
everyone needs the room to believe in what they want.
oneEY EKopen, wellesley MA, us the times#11 97
Q:your views on religion:
A: hi, i'm Marco & these beliefs are basicly my own. i’m an agnostic. i don’t believe we can ever know what's out there. the rest of the guys
probably just don’t care about religion either. way i believe Tim O was raised believing RALPH MACHIO was our saviour. i’m not too sure
where he stands now. in regards to the scen, if that works for the bands & they're keeping it real cool, let em do it. for those doing it as a
gimmick, you better be as good as STRYPER & rock the world for the one who is the rock!!
NECROSIS, Istanbul, Turkiye the times#11 97
Q: ....quickly, religion?
A: everyone should be free in their beliefs, no one should have the right to tell others how to lead theor lives & what to believe in. religion’s
always used to exploit people.
RADICAL NOISE, Istanbul Turkiye the times#11 97
Q: fundamentalism is on the rise in Turkey, a primarily secular country, how do you feel about this & religion as a whole?
A: that’s a broad question....i definetly don’t believe in religion but i’m not against those who do. it’s all about personnal treedom. we certainly
don’t need 1000 years old books to tell us how to live. my own imagination & personnality are my own gods. im only responsible for myself.
when it cums to Turkey, the Islamists are dumb ass fundies that use the poor & badly educated to win quotes. ...
Q: what about in HC? do you pray 5 times a day?
A: 1 think that HC-bands using religion are pointless. and even tho i don’t boycott them i don’t take them serious either, and NO, Emre. we

Friday, 2404: fuck, wake up early-had to work last night, pick up the Holk(aka Beer-Holk) & off we were on our way to
London-Heathrow on a delayed plane with my bags overloaded with Emre’s portion of the zines. on the plane Holk asked
for cawfee, which wasn’t available, so off he was with his first beer of the day. Emre picks us up, we go home, eat, & off we
S EY} are to London. we had to buy these shitty one day travel card every day, that is Pound 4.- every day( make note for next
travel to this town: no more daily travel cards- buy a weekly pass=cheaper, sux tho if u loose it!). see South banks- rad place
to Sk8, run around town & check out cheap record & video exchanges near Carnaby st.(=punk rock-tourist trap street,
BC where the Pistols used to hang). later on we met up with one of the nicest & openminded vegans i know (except for Mike
Hardline): Leo. weird kid. and off we were to the 215 club (777? more like a crusty squad) in Brixton, one of the ,,nicer*
PRODUC places in town. definetly go there after dark & ask one of the rastafaries for directions. the FYP show rocked. nifty squad,
AND | cool & nice punks & crusties, lotsa faces i saw before at the Crudos-show in Mohnhein,Gmny. we could stay for FYP’s
whole set, so off we were taking the last train back home with two of Emre’s brit. friends: tim & his sheep-shaggin’
cousin(?). funny lads. very very anti- sXe. Holk got pretty wasted that night. he had a buncha beers even tho they were hella
expensive to Gmn standards. back to the FYP-show: i talked to the vocalist for quite some time. he used to be a pro-
sk8boarder & even tho FYP rock live i don’t like them live. they’re too scummy. it’s here that i met Bod, the dude with
- 1 Europe’s largest record collection( didn’t this one punk band once say:“record collectors are.....“--hehe). very nice bloke.

people DC-style while Holk’s pissed that the beer’s so expensive. afterwards we run thru rainy, soggy Soho & Chinatown,
with everyone tired & almost ready to explode. if we keep on going at this rate we all are going for eachotha’s throats. on
the train back home these drunk brit. lads next to us talk about not being able to shag no women tonight & then one of them
spilled his coffe on another who almost killed him. the brits can’t control their temper, nor their stomachs. they drink a lot,
but then go home pucking. i’ve never seen so many people puke in just two days. did i mention the local gals? if not,

Saturday, 2604: whooo, we finally figured out how much money we’re actually spending here. we went with the wrong
exchange rate for two days now but the way it looks this place is hella, no let me rephrase that, hella fucking expensive!!!
cigarettes are twice as much than back home (not that i care), so’s beer. we still couldn’t convert the Holk into going sXe-
altho that'd be real scary, havin’ him in our little club. despite that it’s been a cool day we went to Camden Market, where
we did some more record shopping, a Rastafary offered to sell me pot due to a misunderstanding( i didn’t understand him
when he asked me at first & i answered i wanted to look at the tapes first, maybe later..oh well) & i finally got my
BenSherman shirt. it’s incredible how many ads for B.Sherman with actual skinheads hang around town, especially the
metro(,,100% cotton, even for the most irretable skins“!!!!). Holk got his Londale shirt on thursday & got bitched at for
crumbling it up in his bag. so all ye skins eat your hearts out, us baggy dirty shorts wearing sk8-punx are wearing your
attire. we then go sightseeing: Buck in Ham palace, Westminster & Big Ben, Tower Bridge, which we crossed & walked all
the way to fucking London Dungeon, which we didn’t visit due to Pound 9.- each. fuck that, i really would’ve liked to have
seen those torture chambers. walk walk walk, real pretty gals with longer skirts(that are pretty tight & have a slit in the
back to make walking easier) & sneakers with no socks- as i said before Holk & i could sleep at night cuz we were scared
that we might hump eachother. got served cawfee by this beautiful brit. chick only to go to the Doc Martin Department
store!! the EARTH CRISIS show was okay. i met lotsa nice people, like the guys from Stampin’ Ground & from
KNUCKLEDUST or the lad from Never give up fanzine. Holk wasn’t too thrilled that night tho. STATE OF FEAR was
playing at the other side of town & only cost Pd2.- while EC was Pd8.-. we had a good time making fun of all the people &
the dance steps most of them are doing(aka kickboxing). even tho it’s not as violent as it is in the states yet. we then run
around Soho & it s porn-shops, only to end up at Picadelly Circus where i can say now ,,i pissed on Picadelly Circus“! Holk
wanted to check out this club with indepent-underground music playing but i had no money to go in, so here we were again
“fuck you, Dennis™. tired as hell we lost Leo at the show & were off home with an earlier train & got awesome food by the
aps mom.
| | Ratara Af
Sunday, 2704; the goit was off to work today, so i do some recording & we meet up with Deniz ( old friend from Istanbul)
to go sk8 London. we meet up with Leo at South Banx while Holk rips that place like a maniac. take the tube to Brixton-
Stockwell bowls. rad snakerun-bowl, which really is fun riding. some of the FLIP team’s here, hangin’ real cool with joints §
& beer, while this art-student bitch is filming the brit. version of KIDS. we (the four of us) then sk8 around London until
we get to Westminster, where the ground might be a bit wobbly but the curbs & steps rock. nifty ledges as well. cool picture
of the Holk backside 180 the steps with BigBen chiming in the background(alltho you can’t really hear it on the photo, can
ter
| ¥
u?). pick up the goit at 1800 at Shell Center(nice 3 & 8 steps with cool flatlans around it) & sk8 sk8 sk8 sk8 sk8. finally
Leo & Deniz left us & we hang out at Leicester Square park, totally wasted(as in tired you alcoholix), drink Tango & eat
stolen donuts. later on we meet Leo again & go search for a cool coffe house. after walking for many, many(too many--the
Holk) blox we finally sit down in a gay cafe, only to get up again & sit down at a lebian cafe. i had very good mokka!! run
around Soho & it s sex shops some more, Leo wasn’t too amused, Holk didn’t care & Emre’s enjoyed the view. ,,chicks with !
dicks“!! skateboards in hand it’s kinda weird to run around nightlife London. finally get home, eat & shower, thanx mrs.
Aktas, watch TV until the goid gets shouted at for not going to bed on time.

Monday, 2804: ,HOLG!“ hmmm?“ ,Get UP!!“ __,,... NO!
finally get up, record some more tapes, a healthy breakfast & off to London. the goit’s off to skool, while Holk & i spend
our remaining money on records & video-tapes & run around London-find our way pretty good, we could almost call it
home, except for i didn’t get used to crossing the street looking the other way for coming traffic. even tho i can see the cars
coming, i have this terrible urge to look the other direction. while waiting for the goit we meet this incredibly pierced bum,
who’s in this band PAIN & he seems to be a pretty good guide. he tells us some incredible stories of getting pierced thru his
tongue live on stage with a rusty nail...damn. some gmn tourist-kids asked him where they coud get pierced & off he was
guiding those kids & bumming ,,fags“( british for a smoke) off the kids. reunited with the goit we meet this gmn student
NINA, who didn’t speak a lot to Holk & me. are we really that scary looking? more record shopping at Nottinghill, more
spending money on crap, only to meet up w/ our favrit vegan & run thru porn shops again. i ask this guy for chinese porn &
all i get is:“if you want chinese porn go to fucking China!!“. it’s weird how all them shops got imported boox writen on
their signs, then only have crappyGmn champane party boox there, yuk! i eat some awesome veget. pizza ouside Burger
King while the goit & the Holk are inside chowing down bean burgers. run around Tower records some more, off home

overall: London’s a cool place to visit if you’ve got a buncha money to spend. it’s really expensive, especially for smokers. «
F if you wanna go record shopping tho, this is the place. i never found so many exchanges with so many cheap records. they.
. range from 50p to about 3 pounds. and you can really get ahold of some rarities for very little. cool! also there’s so many -
vegetarian restaurants here & even the major fast food joints offer veget. food.
thanx a bunch to Leo & Deniz, Holk & i are forever in the dept of Emre’s mom, she’s one hell of a cook & such a
hospitable person. wow. go see her one day & eat her veget. noodles. great mom. even tho Emre’s a very good guide, knows ;
all the cheap record places, put up with us bums for 5 days without complaining once & totally went out of his way to show |
us around, he still is a goit & as an underling he wasn’t supposed to do anything else, or he would’ve gotten the whip!!

~ here we were, Wentschie Wentsch & I, DPM, on a beautiful spring day, at the Borse in Wuppertal, Gmny to see & interview the **
- infamous INTEGRITY, namely Dwid, their vocalist. we were really stoked to see what he had to say about his religion, his grim
imaging of the band etc etc..... the bad thing was that i actually didn’t read myself into the Process church of final judgement
& the four P movement petone this interview... ee
: Soey .. 2 aa = om 1a Ae: neg tee Re SRigee Pag X
sae the Process harch of final judgement was founded by Robert & Mary DeGrmsian | in the 60’s. see Integrity’s thanx list for “?
i Rob’s name! even tho they deny involvement, they were indirectly involved in the ritual killings of Arlis Perris in ‘74 (she was
: j brutally assaulted & butchered with candles stuck in her) & the serial killer Will Metzer. the Process eventually dissolved in ‘70,
1 but the legacy’s still alive (four P movement, holy terror church of final judgement) & still causing mischief. in his trial
Charles — once said Rob De Grimston & himself were one tees the same Ageh sae: later corrected made ‘ the same iba
dle four Pp movement was gen in ‘67 & an offshot of ie Peaneek it hheel Bi a. & human sacrifices, drugs,
pornography & white slavery. dogs wee skinned alive & then drained, humans wee butchered & the heart was passed round asa
tasty tit-bit!! people that actually were involved in the four P movement were: Charles Manson( who is to be seen on tour ¥
g posters of INTEGRITY with a crown of thorns) & his family, David Berkowitz (son of sam), Fred Cowan (nazi-sympathizer & |
) mad shooting spree that killed 5 incl himself) & Stanley Dean Baker.
. this just upfront so the reader actually knows what he/she’s getting involved in, reading this interview.
Ey Integrity have put out a buncha records, cd’s & comp trax, that can be bought thru Victory recs. Dwid, the vocalist, also ,,sings*
in a side project, that’s basicly industrial technical crap & uses the four P’s of the four P movement as his logo. Integrity also
& uses the holy terror church of final judgement to make themselves look even more sinister & Manson’s face on tour posters ff
m ctc..... Integrity’s a five band piece & we talked mainly to Dwid, later Aaron (guitar) & Frank (other guitar) joined in. aie a
i B plays in in cold blood Ce side project) & if you believe rumours Frank used to playinOLC. ~p p a

tell us a little about yourself, INTEGRITY & what you’re trying to achieve
D: well i sing in Integrity & i don’t know what we’re trying to achieve with Integrity. we’re trying to go home! --laughs--
we don’t have a personal message, really, like all the other Victory bands have a message to say to the world, we’re not like that, really. it’s just -
personnal lyrix, just about thinx in my head & about the end of the world & thinx i like to read about. the other bands on Vicory write about
diffrent stuff.
the end of the world as a message?
D:it’s not a message, i’m not trying to save anyone. i’m not trying to change the world.
you re trying to say the end of the world is cumin’
D:i’m happy! i’m glad the world’s cumin’ to an end, cuz we live & loved in this world. it’s just time to be done with it!! fe
in your little booklet that cums with .HUMANITY IS THE DEVIL“ you talk about the end, you talk about a holy terror church of final =.
jugdement... a
D:the church is an apocalyptic church about the end of the world. i don’t really wanna convince people to cum over to the church. we’re not a
Krishna band that is trying to recruit people just cuz they like the music. it’s not like that at all. it’s something i like & the rest of the band don’t
really pay any mind to, they just worry about themselves or whatever.
how did you become involved ?
D:it’s been around for quite some time & i found out about it thru reading & knowing certain people...that kinda thing. it’s all over the world,
not just cleveland. France..Japan.... the main message of the church is the final judgement. the end of the world has already begun!!
in your litlle booklet cumin with ,,Hmanity..“ you talk about demons in disguise & how if we ever met one we should destroy them. did you ever
meet one....do you know anyone who is?
D:that book was written from the perspective of a demon. they toy with Humanity. 3 out of 4 people are demons that toy with the remaining
25% of humanity.
so you could be a demon that’s toying with us right now
D: maybe so, you never know...(laughs)
Yk VERB a eR
ou re using the figure of Charles Manson sitting on a flying fish?
A’ D:it’s like the four horsemen of Apocalypse, that’s what it’s supposed to be. but the absurdity of him riding a fish, because where i come from
—_ thaey make him out to be the devil & a clown at the same time & so the church sees him as the second cumin of Christ cuz of the persecutions
=> Christ endured. there’s two christs, one for the end of the world & one for the redemption of humanity. so he represents the end of the world!
Manson himself said that he’s Christ ofl ,
N Dzyeah, Christ on twice.....the 2nd cumin of... :
“so you believe that?
D:yeah!
is the holy terror church of final judgement part of Manson’s family?
> La TLA MB ~—alInaNY \
D: well, kind of, i guess, not directly tho, it’s not that cut & dry...
so you go alon with everything he did. the Tte-LaBianca killings & all the other killings he was accused of?
A D: he didn’t kill anyone. look at the courts, he was arrested for conspiracy, he didn’t kill anyone. his hands aren’t dirty, he didn’t do anything.
Mai but he told the girls & boy to go do it...
® D:what if an Earl of Earth Crisis sais those lyrix:“kill everyone with leather pants!“? if someone kills someone with leather pants is Earl gonna
EX: go to jail? so it’s more like he said it drunk, he said .,hey that'd be a crazy idea! & everyone said ..yeah, that’s crazy“ & then one fucking guy
mee remembers & tells the newspaper & they make a big deal out of it! (this was the defense’s last stand, but the prosecution put holes thru it right
B away!--the typ)
eae well. in the courts it said that Manson actually rode along in one of the cars
2 Oo = D:the book that you read was written by the prosecutor. in otha words that’s like having a sXe kid write the story of a band like Murphy’s Law,
* where he obviously doesn’t like whaat their doing so he’s gonna say everything he wants, you understand what i’m saying? this guy had his
own agenda & opinion, he wanted to become a superstar prosecutor lawyer, so he sais whatever he can to make himself look great. he’s a

@ cll us the history of your church eet ty
F D:well, it originated with Robert DeGrimston. everyone knows his name from our record, but noone knows who he really was. basicly it was an
~ apocalyptic church & he had ideas that were very familiar but not necessarily the same & broke into 4 sessions: Christian for Christ, Jehovian
for people who worship god, Luciferian for people who worship the earth & Satanic for people who worship destruction. and under the house
\ these people judging fron their instinct & behaviour inside...ahm...you know instinct, one’d go this way & one’d go that way, but either way, OG
ae theyre under the same house, so it’s like Christianity sais: there’s satanic & people who worship god, but they split it & you can't have the RK
2 other guys under the same house, even tho they're worshipping the same idea...it’s an acceptance of animal culture within a Christian setting.
ey pagan ideas within a ChristiaN sctting.
you seem to enjoy this dark image INTEGRITY has. do moral standarts like good & evil concern you ?
D: i'm not concerned like Victory bands are concerned. petty...personnal things, is that what you mean? i’m not w

D: i'm a bad person that knows how to tell jokes. a O JOR eS ees ee os j .
is there a happy side to INTEGRITY? PROS Bans
D: everybody hates me in the band!
you're married & you have two kids, right? so how do you want to raise them??
D: not in the public school system!
do you wanna raise them by your religious values, that’s what i mean?
D: they have their own minds to evolve. they can develop their own minds. we have some relatives....(we get interupted by the roadie who’s
incapable of bringing Dwid’s pizza to the bus, so he gets it himself)....(5 minutes later. by now the whole band’s present & you can feel Dwid
broaden up. he now feels more secure!) i mean theyre gonna grow up with their own fucking thoughts, just as everyone would, but they're
gonna have alternative trains of thoughts to fucking choose from. while most people just have black & white, they have a lot of grey areato ,
choose from. C-
‘ou said you're not putting them thru school. neither public nor private?
D: they re not going to school!
so who's going to teach them stuff ? you??!!
D: yeah! (smiles) is that hard? what do you learn that you know is that fucking crazy that school teaches you?? i mean my daughter can read
right now & she’s 4 & my son’s 2!! school’s overrated. they teach you to be a fucking mindless factory slave, so you can sit down & shut your

AES Sigs
After listening to Buglite’s various7‘s all winter long I’ve come to the conclusion that they’re one of the sweetest sounding
pop punk bands around today. To be honest I’d never seen an interview with them, the lack of interest in good bands is mind
boggling these days!!. So I thought a short informative interview was needed to spread the word about these lovely chaps,
nothing more nothing less. The bass playerkyle answered the questions. Cheers!! ~ fA
SO How and When did BUGLITE come about?
Well we formed in January 1994 I thinK!! We kind of got togethor as a joke because all that was around us were angry
hardcore bands bithching about living in the suburbs, so we said fuck it lets try to be original and it worked.
Give Us a quick run down of releases you’ ve had up till now.
Well they go like this: ,, This Day“ 7inch ,,Marcia Brady“ 7inch, ,,Bouncing Souls“ split 7inch, ,,Dustbunny split 7inch, ,,Sorry
to disappoint you“ 7inch, ,,Love and Other sorrows“CD, ,,Sidecar* split 7inch, and about 20 comps.
You also run your own label right?
Yeah I do Matthau records!!
How did that come about?
Well I’m a complete control freak when it comes to our releases so when our Onefoot records deal came up we finally had
the money to do it ourselves and we did.
Are you mainly using that for BUGLITE releases or for other bands that you like?
The label started out just doing our stuff, but now ist going beyond that. I’m working on a bunch of stuff for other bands as
we speak!
Whats the fascination with Walter Matthau all about? Your favourite Matthau movie?
I just like him. I think hes one of the best actors I’ve ever seen and just his appearence and to think someone that freaking
ugly could be so famous gives me hope! I Can’t really name a favourite, if you asked my 20 gave movies they would all
involve Walter.
oa ae
Religion?
OK! Music now, give us an insight to reactions at shows
are local shows different to those of ones on tour?
Usually we get a really good response, when there are | don’t believe in organised religion in any scene. I think ?
you should set your own rules for living not having them ,
actually people there. I think it’s a lot better on tour
though, cause it’s all new to those people, but around gale, impressed upon you!
Straightedge?
here people have seen us like every weekend for three
years so it’s kind of hard to keep peoples interest. The straightedge thing is cool. I’m not myself but I have
the utmost respect for those who choose to live that way. j
L\k PP
Interesting hobbies or jobs?
I would’nt call the collecting Walter Matthau stuff a
hobby, it’s more of an infliction. And my job is the band p
and label. Dave our singer collects dead animal carcasses
for some odd reason. I think he analyses them to help out
his drawing or something.
710, ew
Future Plans? 3
to record a new album, so look
Future Plans:
Well we leave next wee
r atwo month US
new stuff.
“s
So whats the local scene actually like? any bands €..,
mentioning?
The scene around here sucks sooooo bad! I don’t even
know what bands are left around here, most of ‘em have
broken up for one reason or the other.
Going onto more broader issues, what are your views on
the current popularity of Hardcore and unk within the
mainstream? Thoughts on bands that sign to majors?
, | think it’s a good thing because it’s giving a lot of
| smaller bands more opportunities to get their music out
there. I don’t think that there is anything wrong with
signing to a major as long as you don't comprimise your for that soon, we also leave in July fo
music or your amount of input in to the release. Now tour and then it’s back to writing more
bands that are oneday a Hardcore band and then sign to a Last words? = ce ’
major and turn into a pop band just to sell more records, Thanks for taking the time to include us in your magazine Fi

DEMESIYLE BASLAR.
SeLL YouR NeW TREND TO che AMERICANS.
When Emre Sp i went to Jstanbul this summer, we were fortanate to meet up with an old friend : olga.
Se used to play in a buncha turkish 5C bands, f.c. Whhorbid Vouth, 7urmoil ete. “This gear we met up S-
he told as about his new band: C2R2ZA NCH, Sr asked as to cum along to practise. L4/e were blown
away. They kinda remind me of JZorn-Against S- ./VoComment. So of course we had to interview them.
Wareh out for their apcoming Tape/CD on YodVNusic, available exelasivle over .7.°7.
(it'll be out by time you cead this?!) —by DPHNY
Craneh was formed in the winter of 95. Tolga (T.)& the drummer Orkun(O.) have been playing since 91 in a band
called VIOLENT POP (stop & go HC) between 1991-92. In September T. joined TURMOIL as a bass player, & in
the winter of 93 O. joined in as well. After their last release (Turmoil/AccousticGrinder splitep) the band split up
& T&O formed a band called Regorge with Enis(E.), who now plays bass in Craneh . They played something like
early BlackFlag & early AOF. Cruneh was our next band, at first without E.. our other bassist left us after the
oct96 gig with MasticScum(fm Austria). So E. joined in again. Other band projects of this trio included
KurbaaKermit, Muttec, 31ers, CocaCola is my god etc...
Craneh are Enis-bass, Orkun-drums, Tolga-guitar/vox(who answered all these stoopid questions!
Tell us a little about the Turkish HC scene, bands & their motivations.
I don’t believe that there IS A REAL HC scene in Turkey. There are no HC (or punk) bands outside the big ciries
like Istanbul or Ankara. This has 2 reasons: 1. HC is geographically so close to Turkey ( f.e. Greece & Bulgaria
have lotsa HC bands & zines), but on the other hand it’s too far to Turkey about culture & musical content. 2.
Income rate of Turkey. Not only music, doing anything in art is expensive & limited here, f.e. there are no free
places for HC bands to play shows. Only long haired idiots have the chance to play gigs in rock bars. & there only
are rock clubs to play gigs at. You have to bring your own drumkit, amps & sound equipment, if you have all that! !
Not one of the HC bands have their own drumkit, or amps. Because of this we can only play/watch 10 HC/punk
shows at the most in one year!!
In countries with low income in int. standarts (like Turkey) Art can’t grow up. Most people playing HC in Turkey
usually come from good income families(the majority of them). These people, who have no economic probs, can t
know/understand the difficulties of the working class
6 common people. We can show understanding to
their deficients about this subject matter, but when
they say ,,we’re a polit. band“ it is a big lie! Their
polit. thoughts are only a trend. I ‘ve never seen a
Turkish HC band write about the war in Kurdistan,
or political events, human rights etc.. they write
about abstract polit. topics like ,,Fascism is a bad
ideology-fuck it!“!!! when you ask them ,,why don’t
you write about the war carried on with the Kurds?“
or about Police Terror, they will say:“you know
we're living in Turley, it’s really dangerous, it is
unnecessary to write about these topics!“ !!! They are
essential a- politics! And the truth of the matter is
lots of bands & people like these are in every part of
the world. They are too many. Don’t fool away your
money, time with these bands saying ,,we’re a polit.
band“. It’s only a trend & a way to sell their stuff
(records, zines..). if there were HC bands that write
(fe) psychadelic lyrix, i'm sure most of them would
write psychadelic lyrix. This is only a trend. From
then on in their flyers, ad’s etc you'll probably see:“fast, powerful(etcetc..) PSYCHADELIC HC“!!! this is a ttick
by saying ,,we are political, i am political!“ without having real polit. presstire & probs.
You sure are a weird bunch. How can you make this type of HC, but all of y’all listen to complete diffrent things?
Yes, we are a weird bunch!! Orkun mostly listens to the Cure, Neworder, DepecheMode, 80’s NewWavw 6
PostPunk bands. Enis likes Jazz, Industrial & Punk bands. I#m the only one devoted to HC, but i spent my time
with listening to Turk. Kurd. Political music!
The bands we are influenced by are Citizens Arrest, Born Against, 80-82’s & 88-USHC. Our music is HC, but we
don’t worry about always playing HC. We’re making HC cuz it’s the only way to show our anger, hate & energy.
Living in a semi-islamic country(with Islam being the main religion in Turkey), do you consider yourself Islamic
Do you believe in Allah?
No, definetly not! Why can i believe? I only believe in my self. I have no time for religion & god!
You can believe in the Islamic god without praying 5 times a day, can’t you?
Nearly 98% of the 60 million inhabitants are muslims, but i don’t know anybody of my neighborhood praying 5
times a day. So yes, you can believe in your ,,fear“!
Do you consider you country Islamic?
MY COUNTRY??? It’s not my country!! It’s the country of rightist, conservatives, fascists, big wigs, polices &
soldiers (that can feed only with blood & dead bodies). We are ,,Traitors“, we are ,,terrorists“!! In Turkey being
leftist, not believing in religion, criticizing politicians & the system is similar with being A Terrorist!!
(Terrorist!Huh!Idon’t know the meaning of it?). also our citizens(my dear patriotic muslim citizens) like to
denounce terrorists like you to our dear police (those who serve & protect our wealthy, strong, big, muslim country)
and they like to watch your dead body, eat your corpse, gnaw on your bones....
About your question, YES, i consider ,.my country“ Islamic. At the same time Fascist, Capitalist & Terrorist!! In
' Turkey it’s natural to go to jail, & there to be tortured, killed or starved to death or get beaten to death by the
police. If you want to live long & healthy in Turkey, you should be quiet, you should memorize all the national
songs & you should have a big Turkish flag on your house!
Explain a little about Turkey’s secular roots. Do you think that due to religious tensions Turkey could turn into
another Algeria?
I don’t think that Turkey will be like Algeria. Yea there are radical muslims, conservatives. They’ve got a big part
of educational institutions & mayoralties, but these people never can be a threat, cuz these idiots are like
paperhouses. One puff (blow) is enuff!! Turkish citizens are muslim but they are so devoted to ATATURK
(Atakuh, the man who set up the Turk. Republik), so the Laicism principle ( one of his principles) will be saved by
them.
Closing i’d like to ask you a question: do you think that the US government supports the zines & bands for their
help with spreading the Amerikkkan Imperialism? For example MRR?
Shit good fucking question. I think the government doesn’t support them, even tho there once was a column in
MRR talking about them being run by major labels. Knowing zines & bands from the states, i know they ain't
supported by the government. And the government doesn’t see them as any threat whatsoever, so they jsut don’t
care. They know what all these kids are doing & are under constant surveillance, but that’s it!
Thanx for the Int!

sam) Heres an interview with US Ska punk geezers MU330, done sometime in April at the gravity club in Kingston with me EA
eh and Mal asking the questions. If you have’nt checked them out or even worse caught them live yet be sure to beat yourselves
s with cude instruments until you repent your stupidness!! Okay? good! Here it is:
byEA
Q. Intro stuff please!
D: My names Dan and | play guitar and sing in a band called MU330, were from St. Louis and I'll hand you over to Ted!
a APE ae
mG: I’m Gerry an’ I play the trombone.
Lets start with some rumours! | heard that your name was taken from your school music class, is that true?
D: AAHH!! the rumours are true!! we met in a high school music class which was like in the 9th grade and that was the
section numbers of the different classes like English 101, and ours which was of course MU330! So there you have iT!
Lets talk a little about the tour a little, it’s with Blanks 77 right?
D: Yeah we’ve toured with the Blanks before in the states and we’ve done...well actually we’ve only played 3 shows with |
them in England, those being London, Leeds and tomorrow night in Birmingham. So it’s not exactly a full fledged tour with |
them. |
So hows it been?
D: Oh It’s been great!!! we’ve had so much fun!! it’s seriously been a blast.
And It’s like your first time in Europe or England?
q D: It’s our first time playing outside the US!! so yeah the first time in either Europe or England
#% What were the main differences or weird shit that struck you?
j D: Man there were DOGPILES last night!!! at the end of every song there were these pileups in the middle of the floor. That
was kinda weird, you dont get that in the States, usually when we play someone’ll fall down and they ‘Il get picked up, here
a if anyone falls...
G: EVERYONE JUMPS ON THEM!!!!
D: so eventually you got these HUGE dogpiles!! It was great and looked like a lot of fun so I kept jumping in and joining in.
Which show was that? a <
D: | think that was in southampton, the place was pretty tiny and...
T: the floor was carpeted!!
D: Here it’s BRICK!!( refering to the gravity club) I can’t see the kids dogpiling on the bricks here!! well thats a little too
tuff .. for me anyway!! but it looks like theres a good turn out here tonite, is that what it’s usually like? ‘
: 5 E ; : {
Sometimes, sometimes the turn outs low depending on the band, what about the scenes in the States? !
T: there are good scenes in most all the cities we play in and we get some pretty good turn outs in most. * :
Would you say being in a Ska band helps due to the fact that that style is popular over there now?
D:Well thats true to some extent , but I think that the bands that have been around for a long time are getting more and
“4 more popular as word about them gets out . | dont think that applies as much to the newer bands that are around.
; Well your pretty well known here, does that surprise you?
= D: Yeah thats pretty wierd! Because our albums have’nt even been available here until this month, I guess people are ff
attracted to us when they see Ska or whatever on the flyer, so that seems to help.
G: And I’ve noticed that word of mouth travels a lot faster here.
D: Thats kind of whats happened though right? like our first show was in Brighton and all of a sudden a day later all of the
Brighton people would go to London. So we keep on seeing the same faces which again is weird!! PEOPLE KEEP
§ FOLLOWING US ABOUT! which is great though! lees
OOH!! A cult following hey??!! Re.
D: AAH!! I dunno, We’re getting there!! no I dunno about that!
mg Whats up with Dill Records at the moment? B. Lee has sort of jumped ship with Asian Man records has’nt he? Are you
§ familiar with him?
D: YEAH we know Bruce Lee!! No he’s just doing Asian Man records now and in the middle of July we’re rereleasing the
first 2 albums on Asian Man, and in the middle of september our brand new one will be out also on Asian man. we were FgeJ
initially on Dill from just knowing Skankin Pickle and touring with them in the states. They once even stayed at our sax |
T: Dill have had some bad luck over the last year or so with legal entanglements also.
r. *~9
BA
What was that all about?
T: They had problems with using certain things for the covers of a couple of Cds like the ,,Nerds* parody cover for the One
Eye Open CD. Also the cover of the Misfits of Ska comp. They ended up with some lawsuits concerning all that from the
Willy Wonka candy company etc... I think the One Eye Open Cd has now been withdrawn.
Any funny tour stories?
D: Ummm.... Gerry can answer this one!!
G: AHHH C’mon I can’t think of any ( I kinda feel like their holding s.thin back, what d’you think hey readers? -the typ)
RS It’s been so funny and great all the time!!
4 GEEZ!! there you go again!! I cant believe you like it here so much Most US bands just piss and moan about being here
someones obviously been putting stuff in your drinks or something!!
LAUGHTER all round
| G: But it’s true!! After the Leeds show I payed ten pounds for a video and we drove to Sunderland to stay at our drivers
house and we found like a party , no actually 2 parties and watched some videos and had a laugh, it was unbelievable!
everyone was so great!
Okay I gotta finish this off. Interpol Tradition, Any last jokes?
f D: Gerrys full of jokes, whats that lymmeric you learnt?
3 G: Yeah!! I learnt something!! Okay here we go: I’m not a pheasent plucker i’m a pheasent pluckers mate I’m only

Ever wonder what happened to that amazing band from
Canada called 1 SPY? Well we did! So the Interpol
decided to send some questions to the old Bassist Todd.
If you never aqcuianted yourself with I SPY heres your’
chance, or if your just curious read on......
So How About a brief history of the band, who, when
and why?
Hey there Interpol! Heres a short history of I SPY. We
started in Regina and were a band for a few years then we
moved to Winnipeg. We have been broken up for nearly a
year now. We were Dave, Rary, Juicepig, the Rod. Dave
is now finishing up university. Rary is doing some type of
computer shit. Juicepig works at the co-op daycare and is
very serious into capocira(Brazilian martial arts). 1 the
Rod play bass for Propaghandi and guitar for Swallowing
Shit. and am into Shaolin Kung Fu and Ji JITSU. Good
shit!!We love that stuff! Thats what me and juicepig do
togethor all the time now, thats why I mentioned it I
guess. Since I SpY is no more.
Over The years I ‘ve heard so much about your shows,
was there really that much to tell?
Our shows really went up and down we always had to
borrow equipment so a lot of times we’d have to use
terrible stuff or stuff that was’nt suited to our sound, that
ruined a lot of shows. Some shows we’re great though!
Alot of them were really unique shows. We tried to keep
them interesting but sometimes it would just flop.
Sometimes it would be great and the crowd would love it
and go totally mad! other times they'd just stand there
pitying the fact that we are stupid individuals.
I SPY seemed to be a band that covered nearly all the
important issues of today I can think of. What do you
think of bands that are’nt as socially or politically
outspoken? Does it matter?
I listen to a lot of bands that are’nt politically outspoken.
Music does’nt have to be . The stuff going on around me
is what gives me my drive. It might not be so for others
but thats okay!
What about the drive“ for a song like .God Family
Country“ is that just personal inspirations???!!
my inspiration for that song is just looking around or
talking to people like my dad, who blames all the wrong
people for their problems. It’s very common to do that in
North America. Plus I HATE religion, so I mixed these
two things into a neat little scrotum!
Since we’re on the subject of lyrics who wrote most of
them?
I wrtote most of the lyrics, the juicepig wrote some as
well.
“™~ There was a certain degree of good humour in some of
the lyrics, Do you feel that looking around at the present
HC scene most have lost their sense of humour, especially
‘When it comes to what s acceptable to say and write
| within lyrics?
| | Yes, I t’s lost it’s humour, the only people who are
Cieyingt to be funny are those Epitaph bands. I wish more
bands could do good funny but smart lyrics. As opposed
to ,,trying“ to be funny with shitty jokes.
Do you think it’s got something to do with the new PC
' trend?
I don’t know if it has to do with the extreme PC people,
| who cares eh? I guess if I want good humour I'll just talk
‘to the juicepig.
| The Canadian Scene, bands?
hmmm...theres good bands and bad bands. Good ones are
MORAL PANIC (from our old home town, best band in
Canada!) SUBMISSION HOLD, uh... yeah some people
are really nice some are just idiots.
What about Canada as a whole? What are your thoughts
on the .,seperation of Quebec“ are you glad it did’nt
happen?
I’m glad it did’nt happen, I guess. i live very very far from
there so don’t know what it’s like to live there. I would
hate to see it turn into something like Croatia or
something. I don’t know. Canada has obviously got to
look in the French peoples demands and needs.
You said earlier that you hated religion, seeing as this is
the religious issue of Interpol, do you want to briefly
expand on that?
Yeah religion sucks. Religion anywhere is dumb. It’s just
an easy way out of not knowing the answers. MAKE
ONE UP!! If god existed we would have to destroy him.
Fucking dick!
Okay on _a lighter note, If you could change one thing
about yourself what would it be?
- ] would like to be a handsome man.
Any chance of coming to the UK soon?
With Propagandhi, we’d love to go to the UK.
Lasts words of advice, comments or jokes?
Jokes? how about my life.
INTERVIEWS
“RANCOUR” AND “NAILED”
A vast country at the end of the world, its beauty overwhelmingly impressing, with people “down to earth”
of enormous friendliness and gratitude, inhabited by countless widely different cultures.
This is South Africa. Many different worlds in one country.
Most people of our generation still associate South Africa with its very particular, historical past. For several years now the
“Rainbow Nation” follows the path of democracy. The historical process it went through is more or less unique. But the
transformation to become a mature democracy is still not finished yet. The former political regime did its best to keep people
out of political matters and tried to avoid an education providing people with a healthy, political self-conciousness. Many people
still don’t acknowledge their actual role as an individual in a democratic system, either because they so far haven’t had the
opportunity to do so, or they simply haven’t been taught a way of thinking critically towards structures and subtle influences in
their social and political environment surrounding them. Considering this particular situation today it seems interesting to take a
look at emerging alternative youth cultures in South Africa, with punkrock and hardcore as flagship representing the rebirth of
political conciousness in a new-born democracy, its existence dangerously stretched to the bursting point by difficult cultural
conditions and society’s tendency to split into various extremes.
South Africa’s problem today is not racism anymore, but the fact that people in most cases don’t know how to deal with their
newly found political responsability for themselves and their social environment.
I was talking to members of two different local bands in Cape Town, South Africa, on the 19th of april,1997 at the “Riverclub”
in Observatory, in the southern suburbs. RANCOUR, the first band interviewed caught my attention because of their ultimate
political old-school hardcore. Their frontman,
Mark Silberstein, overwhelms his audience with his ice-cold political message and always manages to leave people standing
dumb-founded of their own stupidness, totally not prepared to take that kind of stuff. Mark tries drawing people’s attention to
certain subjects. Merciless and real punkrock, he doesn’t give a fuck if people are interested or not.
The second band I first saw on a private gig at someone’s house in Bloubergstrand, in the northern suburbs Cape Towns. It was
a atmospheric night on new years eve 1996/97 when NAILED suddenly showed up on the stage that wasn’t even one and just
rocked the whole fuckin’ house with their extremely powerful mixture of speedy funpunk and exploding moshcore. Their
charismatic frontman, Emile Lombard, wrapped himself up in a chain of electrical christmas tree lights and almost killed
himself receiving electrical shocks after his body had become sweaty within several minutes. On that particular occasion all the
band members rather looked like actors from “spaceballs” than punkrockers, having dressed themselves up like weirdos from
hell. However, they insist upon being considered as a christian band. Just listen, what they have to tell you !
ints by PHIL
Px by PHPL
PHIL: Okay Mark, first of all, please list the names of all the band members.
MARK: Bandmembers are myself, Mark Silberstein, Greg Atkins - bass, Jef Jones, which is really his name, as guitarist and a
new member who plays for this other Punkband, SUBVERT SOCIETY, which is on the other side of our tape, is Gregor
Boettcher, the German dude, as percussionist
PHIL: When did you first start ?
MARK: Okay, we started in 1996, I think we’ve been together for six months now.
PHIL: How did you guys get into Punkrock ? I just wonder because there actually isn’t a decent punkrock movement in Cape
Town at all 772
MARK: Do you mean individually or as a band, how we got together as a band, in that way ?
PHIL: Both ways.
MARK: Speaking for myself, in primary school I had fascination with the DEAD KENNEDYS and what I’ve seen of them, but I
haven’t heard much, because this is Cape Town, after all. I saw their symbol et cetera, I somehow got into skaterock and by
standard six, in high school, I basically heard DEAD KENNEDYS for the first time and a lot more punk. It’s just the way
people were themselves, and this whole thing about the whole punk scene which appealed to me a lot since then I got more and
more into punk and I went more and more to punk gigs if there ever were any. And the chance came for me for being in a band
and I was in it, so.......
PHIL: Were the DEAD KENNEDYS the only band you had as an inspiration ?
MARK: Oh, no ne (laughs). At that stage SKX VISLOLS,
alicriaitve, foiky and punky new ape siefl which was how
t all started. aiid then We caine to oie, Vou now, to stuff
hke CRASS and so on.
PIL: iow did you guys ting each other /
MAR: I went up to these guys, with Greg, our bassist and
Tistin, fhe skaier dinie you know, they were aboui to stati
a batid, aud they didi’ i have a nate vel, and T went up to
them and | said. you know. that 1 was very keen on singing.
especially political and expressive stuff, you Know,
positive messages, and I said to them, hey if you are
nieresied ima vacshisi Td reaily hike te sing, so they sard
foie fine and they had the choice between Miguel that
other dude. aiid mic. so they chose me. after having plaved
ene song euch. Ha Ha Ha (laughs). So they chose me and |
was totally up to if. kor me, it's like a part of my destiny te
sing in a punk band, you know, the expression, the way |
foot Treatly want fo pei ii out you know, 1@s something 7
always wanted to do. But after a while we noticed that our band was a little bit messed up after we had to exchange some
members and we decided to break up, because we saw that it wouldn’t get us anywhere. That broke up and Greg and I started
from a scratch and founded RANCOUR, and we met Jeff in the college, and that’s how we formed. From nothing we’ve come to
where we‘re now.
PHIL: How would you try to ibe your musi le?
MARK: AEEHMM, it’s definetely old-school punk and it’s very political, because that’s the way I feel.
PHIL: You reminded me of MINOR THREAT !!!
MARK: Sorry, ... ohh, thank you, that’s a real compliment (laughs). That’s a good one. Well, then I suppose if we remind
people of MINOR THREAT then we only add a tinge of skaterock and stuff to it. ;
This is a great honour. Thank you very much. MINOR THREAT is by the way another band which I really like, and everything
with Ian Mc Kaye.

PHIL: What do you think abo’ Town’s music scene eine st y ae . What do you and what don’t you like about
what’s ing here in South Africa’s local 2?
MARK: I think the music scene is dead. [ll tell you that, D-E-A-D, put in big letters. But recently, there has been more punk
bands coming up, people like for example SUBVERT SOCIETY, who are usually much younger than we are, but they play old-
school, they have a positive message and it’s great to see,
you know, it gives you hope, it gives you faith in the scene in future, and I think it’s slowly coming up, but I only hope that it’s
not becoming a fashion statement, when punk is coming up here again.
PHIL: Some kind of fashion statement like it has become overseas, in the sta Europe, is that what you ;
MARK: Yes, like it is overseas night now. I just hope we can keep it met because that’s it where we wanna keep it,
while there’s a lot of local bands here like “Fungy Gone West”, who are basically into their stuff because of money, the image
and fame, you know. Bands like us, SUBVERT SOCIETY and DIMINISHED RETURN are basically into that music because of
the messages, and we want to keep it that way as far as possible.
PHIL: What do you go off about in your songs ?
MARK: Well, our messages are basically about positiveness, and, achmm...., ’'m trying to get a brotherhood but this is Cape
Town, it’s pretty slag. I'd like to see some kind of MINOR THREAT action, Ian Mc Kaye, you know that energy and that unity,
which is a big word. I’m really into this unity. It’s united scene, united people and a common goal. Positive thinking just to ,
you know, to feel that they can change, that they can make a difference. That’s important, you know. And that everybody can
make a difference, you know, not just one person. There’s more people like you, everywhere.
PHIL: So that’s basically what you want to change in future, is this more or less your vision ?
MARK: Yaah, that is my vision, I wanna basically have a brotherhood where people are havin’ fun and where people are going
off on uit, you know, I don’t want them to see back and say “great band”, they should actually show their energy !
P. Cape To
MARK: Basically, a that’s about it. Right.
PHIL: There’s no strai e either in Cape Town. Most le have never ever about such a thi fore. On the
one hand I noticed ren and alcohol abuse here, on the other hand there are a lot le heavily into religion and
_It’s like ev ing is split up into these e€ es. Why is that ?
MARK: To that question I say two things: peer pressure and society. Peer pressure has to do with the drugs, I would say. People
are desperately trying for a way out and are not able to deal with reality, not able to find an easier way, an alternative to deal
with the problem. They won’t solve their problem by using these drugs. There’s no escape from reality because once you stop
from drugs you get back to reality. You must stay in reality and deal with a problem, not rely on a substance. Religion should be
people’s choice, it mustn’t be forced on anybody. I think if free people feel free to follow a religion and if it makes them a
whole person, that’s great. But nobody should be forced, you know. You get a lot of parents who are very involved in their
religion and they force it upon their children, you know, they force it. And the children often don’t know any other way out of
what they’ ve been taught, they just swallow it.
Freedom from religion. Freedom for religion. Freedom for everything. You choose what you want to do. Anything that’s forced
from anybobody simply can’t make you happy ! You would agree with that, totally.
PHIL: Are you planning to go on a tour overseas ?
MARK: Yees, Pll definitely do that. The hopes and inspirations we have are very limited in Cape Town, and I feel that overseas
it will be more appreciated, because people actually know how to express that energy ,anger and all that rage. And, I mean, I’ve
spoken to you about going to Europe and hopefully next year some time we’ll be able to do that.
Admodn
PHIL: Is that what you actually expect from the overseas” scene when you go there ?
MARK: I do, I really do. From what I’ve seen, what I’ve heard, people actually go off, they know how to express themselves,
while people are shy over here and they’re mostly hippies.
PHIL: Do you agree if I say people here have got no political consciousness ?
MARK: Yaah, ...completly. 1 mean, I find it very hard to communicate with a lot of people. My band and I, we now about
where we are. People havin’ political discussions and the lyrics they write are all up to the way they’re thinking, but for other
people you have to literally spit it out and then they’re often like, you know, “oohhh, why can’t you just leave it alone”. You
know the slag way of saying that. But if you think about it, that’s what punk is al! about, if you think like that, express the way
you feel and don’t let anyone stop you from doing it. It’s not about backing down.
PHIL: I agree with that. What do you wanna say to people elsewhere on the world ?
MARK: ...aeehmmm, I hope that you give us a good reception wind. Things are not always what they seem in this country, you ;
can’t slag off everybody. If anybody has got any political convictions about this country, about the white people who are in South
Africa, about the youth, is that a lot of us were simply too young to do anything about it. I personally and my family, we’ve
fought against the fascist regime in South Africa to make it a ....what it is now, which is not much better you must admit
because we’re going to bloody banana republic, so I mean you’ ve got the choice of fascism and communism, but at least in this
way we’ve got more freedom and we’re not a fascist country anymore, thank god !
PHIL: Would you eciate if le came over here and checked it out ?
MARK: OOHH, definctly. I want all people to come, I want people to see. I don’t want people to be ignorant, you know. You
can’t talk about a country or a place if you haven’t been there. A lot of people make assumptions towards what it would be like
and that everybody was a racist, but it wasn’t like that ! Everywhere you had resistance here, you had people who defied it. Be
they white, be they black, be they whatever colour, they defied it. And that was everywhere.
PHIL: Have you got last any shout outs, thank yous or fuck yous ?
MARK: (laughs) aeehmmm, basically I just want to say, achm.. I suppose, be true to yourself and your feelings and always
follow your beliefs. If you’re going to dic anyway, you mustn't dic fighting for what you belicve and that’s an important thing,
and never back down, because if you backed down once it’s so easy to be kept down. Always stand for what you believe. I.
suppose I would just like to thank bands like MINOR THREAT and the DEAD KENNEDYS for being, ....and CRASS, for
being a big influence in my life, yeah, inspiration in my life and for making me want to get that energy. They taught me a lot in
expression and they gave me something to walk towards, because I see them and I hear them and, you know, and I think this is
the way it should be like. This is what it can be like. And eahmm....I suppose that’s it !

NAILED
SOUTH AFRICA SPECIAL :
a band with lyrix like these:
youre living your life but are you ready to go?
the only way it seems is sex, drugs & rock’n Roll
beware of the wasteman, he’s coming for you
the answer is to turn to god, he’ll give you sth new!
you have to make a choice for yourself,
decide your eternity, heaven or hell
you can slip the wasteman only thru god
you can stay on this earth but i7m not!*
and on the inner-sleeve of the tape it states:
..NAILED’s main reason for demo tapes is to spread the good news of Jesus Christ & his love for the world & is considered
more a ministry than a band!“
PHIL: Please name all your band members, Siggi.
SIGGI: Emile Lombard-Vocals and Guitar from time to time, Sygmund Brodalka-Guitar, Donovan Overton-bass, Francois de
Lange-percussion.
PHIL: When did you start ?
SIGGI: About oktober 1994. It started off as a joke really, and then me and Stephan, we started the band. It was just like a joke
and then we really became serious. In the end it was just me and Francois who ended up and started off as a proper band after
some changes.
PHIL: How did you guys get into punkrock basically, considering the fact that there’s no scene in Cape Town ?
SIGGI: Obviously some American influences. I listened to punk from the states a lot. I don’t know, I’m just a very bouncy
person and | ended up playing fast music. Punk is nice is nice in thal genre. It’s a happy music. Okay, I tell you why: In Cape
Town there’s always these somber death
metal bands and stuff, it’s a big scene, hippiccrap. here’s
no fast and positive stuff, so we decided no, we gonna do
something different. But | always enjoyed old-school stull
as well, from London and so.
PIL: Do you like SNUIT' then ?
SIGGI: SNUFF ? Yeah, 10s mee. Is the old stull.
PUL: Llow would you describe your musical style ?
SIGGI: Well, let's say hardcore-punk. A crossover. New
school punk, you know the Californian style, with a tinge
of hardcore.
PIIL: Lave you been to the states already ?
SIGGI: No, I would like to go there.
PHIL: ‘lry to give us an impression of Cape ‘Town's music
scene
SIGGI: What | don’t like is that it’s very unprofessional.
It’s like: If it happens it happens, if it doesn’t happen, it
doesn’t happen. There’s no stickabiltty. People start a
band and stop, they start a band and stop.
There’s no really vision, if you can call if like that, to reach
somewhere.
PUL: ‘That's a problem of mentality !
SIGG Yes, 1s a mentality problem. For years we were
like stuck in this little whole, nobody helped us and we
had to do all our recordings ourselves,and only now it’s
changing, We're getting proper studios and — stuff.
I'verything’s going boom now. And everybody's going
“Uhh, South Alricans can also make music. Now it’s
gonna be a lot better.
at Ree aud you're definitly imiciested to go on a tour
Overseas |?
SIGGL Yes. And I wanna especially go to germany.
Germany because of this new nazi-thing. Obviously it’s not
the biggest thing but that’s the first thing that drew me.
And, another thing is that my dad is Polish, night, he is 76
now, second world war, you know, so I suppose 1 was
meant to hate Germans, but T thought no. Pll just lov’em.
‘that’s actually why, you know, that whole war thing, it’s
tke reconcihate =. countnes or something.
well. Why ?
SIGGI: Aehhmm, ....(to himself) why is there a lot ?..... Maybe, South Africa is very conservative. If non-christan bands make
music, that’s all nght, but when christians start making music they get like ban from the church, and everone is like “how can
you do this”. But they’re changing. There’s actually a lot of bands coming up now. But there’s only like three or four like
pioncering stuff, so it’s picking up more and more now.
PHIL: You know, I wondered about _punkrock is actually something. that opposes bourgeois or average citizen’ s values. And
you guys are so much into christianity. I think I don’t really know any other bands overseas who follow that path.
SIGGI: Yeah, what must I say ?
PHIL: Now you must defend your point of view.
SIGGI: Okay, the thing is, anarchy is against this governmental stuff and so we are anarchists in a way as well, ‘cause we’re
standing for ets cancttcatis for Jesus and ...... yah (he pauses and thinks)......
i subtic and cmotional and you can’t find any words for it !
SIGGT: (laughs in a Shy way)...okay, I don’t know how to explain, ......we’re a christian band . We’re different to the average,
and punk and so is different to it as well. We're not anti-government as such but we are anti-satan, if you can call that (he
Eauigits). We’ re anti- something iiss
SIGGI. Yaahh. That’s obviously a highly positive message.
PHIL: What else do you wanna say about you message ?
SIGGI: What else ? We don’t force it out people’s throats(no, not at all!! —the ironic ed), they’re used to only what they’re
hearing and then we come around and say “Jesus loves you” or whatever, and then they’re like bombed or something.
Actually some people do then realize that they need this thing. Some people drink or do drugs or anything so they realize there’s
help from this type of thing. You know what I’m saying. We’rc offering help, we're not forcing anything on people. We're just
who we are, and then people come and usually speak to us, we don’t say anything. We do have a vision, more or less, but people
usually come to us, why are we doug this and that, or “Pve got this problem, can you help me 27”. So we're just another band
there, singing what we’re believin’ in.
(and still on the inner sleeve of their tapes they consider themselves as ministers and the whole thing as a ministry, now
where’s that not pushing their fuckin’ beliefs down our throats'?—the angry ed)
PHIL: Have you ever thought about the fact that there obviously i
extremes the leidcor-diupheads and the faithfit Jesus-foliowers 7
SIGGI: Yeah, it’s definitcly like that. It’s actually growing more and morc like that. It’s starting to become a lot like in Londoii,
where there’s no more middle-road, or grey area, if you can call it, it’s all black or white. All people are really into religion
(christianity), or they drink and they simply go on as they do. Se it’s black or white. People can’t stay moderate, they have to
fall left or right, they feel forced to choose. I don’t know. People in school with me, they used to be that kind of study-hard
people, wouldn’t do anything wrong, now they’re all alcoholics or then some of them are christians. So they fall to the sides.( if
it’d be up to me 1d rather be an alcoholic than a new-born Jesus-freak—the ed).
PHIL: What about alternatives like the Straight Edge scene ?
SIGGTE Ya, Ya , Pvcheard about Ian Mc Kaye and his.... cross-X-thingy. We heard about that. Shelter is also in that genre, isn’t
it?
/ of South Africa’s youth to
into two
WANLED —
PHIL: .....more or less...
SIGGI: I’ve never actually heard them, I'd like to do that. Okay, straight edge and christianity are actually very similar to each
other(BOLLOX!!!!!!—the ed.) It’s just that straight edgers believe in themselves, don’t do this wrong, don’t do that......, we just
put our trust in god. That’s all. That’s the actual difference. You could describe it as a straight edge thing as well, somehow you
know.
PHIL: Tell me s ing about future visions, what do you wanna change ?
SIGGI: Future visions. Well aehmm, overseas, we'd like to go on a tour through Europe, because the states are packed with
bands already, eee on the christian market.
P . ~ S EPR of
SIGGE Christian market. me christian bands. ‘There’s like thousands of christian bands already. So there’s no use for us to go
there as well to try it. Europe has got very few. 1 don’t know if you’ve ever heard of christian bands in Europe ?
SIGGL ....so that’s why we wanna go there. And that’s our actual vision. And we wanna progress, get better and better. Perhaps
we actually wanna get signed some time.
PHIL: Is that basically what you you expect from overseas’ scene ?
SIGGT: Yah, you know, you’re not gonna get really far if you haven’t got a strong back-up. Especially in America they’ve got
nice support. ‘They back up the bands really good. Unlike here, you know.
PHIL: What else do you wanna say to people overseas '?
SIGGE Well, ...in what sense......
_ of
SIGGI Achhh.. .(laughs).... what do I wanna say ? I don’t know. I’m sorry......okay, for one thing, everyhing’s not black, there’s
white people around, and there’re no lions in the streets. And racism 1s dead ! It’s actually reversed a bit, but far not that badly,
of course...South Africa....is a nice place (laughs).
PHIL: Okay, have you got any last shout outs , thank yous or fuck yous ?
SIGGI: Thank yous, I'd say definetely thank yous ! (laughs) ...well, thanks for interviewing us. ....what else ? Yes, actually 'd
like to thank the Lord for giving us the talent to do this. Thanks to people for supporting us and understanding what we’re
standing for and not jumping on us and stuff. ‘Thanks for respecting us for what we’re doing !
PHIL: Do you hope to be able to go on a tour through Europe ?
SIGGI: Yees, we are definetely going, trust me (laughs) !
PHIL: See you there.
Mark from RANCOUR and Siggi from NAILED to the question wether they want to go on a tour together:
MARK: Yahh, definetely. I think it’s nice to have two extremes of a music. You know, RANCOUR more old-school and
political and NAILEI being new-school and energetic in their way, you know.
SIGGI: Yes, that’d be great !
MARK: Can I just say one more thing as well ? ...Our scene is so small and it would be great because we had different
variations of our scenc. More old-school and more new-school, it’s = together. Punk together united !
RK @ own “Ped
MARK: Yah, definetely.
SIGGL What I can say is this: As we said you don’t force stuff from people just as much as I don’t do. So, that’s why we can
play together. It’s not a big thing. We’re just believin’ what we do and sing of it and they do what they do. We can do
everything together, I don’t mind. Actually it’d be rad.
PLIIL: Thank you guys.
Siggi's comment on Mark after the interview :
SIGGI. Okay, I just wanna say this. Mark from RANCOUR must get an award for being the best frontman. I don’t know if you’d
find fs better. He talks a lot of rubbish....... (Mark — Saad
MARK: Is that a compliment ?
SIGGI No, I’m just saying. You’re the best frontman I’ve seen around because you feel a stuff for people, you just ty what you
wanna say and they look at you like this and ...oohh... (everybody laughs).

PAINTED THIN AND ME
»Louis, | think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship...“
(Humphrey Bogart to Claude Rains at the end of , Casablanca‘)
So, ladies and gentlemen, now I’m going to tell you
a story of four guys from Canada and a boy from
Cologne, Germoney. It’s a story about fun,
punkrock and friendship. Sounds pathetic, ey?
Well, | Think you're right, but since | cannot tell this
story in the fanzine I’m usually writing for, which is
BLURR, | thought it would be interesting to read
this story in another fanzine. It’s sort of like a tour
diary, but then again at the same time, it isn’t. But
read for yourselves...
It all started in Brdhl, where PAINTED THIN were to
play the local JUZ alongside with Dusseldorf’s
finest FREE YOURSELF. It was one of the concerts
you got to, because nothing else is on at the
evening. It was nice, but not the smash-hit.
Two days later PAINTED THIN played at Neuss’
Geschwister-Scholl-Haus, this time supported by
,Cermany’s SAMIAM* 11 TOES. This show was
very similar to the previous one, but this time | had
someone to tell me what the guys were like.
Carsten, head of the worldfamous BLURR-Empire
with ist fight against the unbelievably baaaaaad in
the universe, had only good things to tell about the
Painties. And this time the concert seemed to be
more interesting. Probably because some of the
songs sounded more familiar because | heard them
before. Well, PAINTED THIN should play one more
show in the Rhineland-Area in Bonn and | kept
looking forward to that show. Maybe there would be
a chance to talk to the guys...
On May 31*, a concert was scheduled at Cologne’s
Between. RADIOBAGHDAD and LATEX
GENERATION wer the bands and | was very
suprised to see that - once again - PAINTED THIN
also played that evening. And on this evening the
show even got better than at Neuss. And | got the
chance to talk to Stephen, the guitarist. Only for a
few minutes, but it was a nice start. | told him that |
would be at Bonn two days later and we agreed to
meet there again.
When | entered the train to Bonn | wondered if
Stephen would recognize me. These guys were on
tour now for almost a month and they probably met
many people that talked to them. But when | stood
in front of Bonn’s Bla-Club and Stephen came out,
he greeted me with: “Hi Jan, how are you? I'll be
with you in a second.“ Hey, that guy even
remembered my name. Then we had a
conversation for about two hours, avery interesting
one. And when | wanted to pay my entrance,
Stephen put me on the guest-list, because I’ve
been ,to three of our shows and we can’t take any
more money from him“. Gee, that was so
embarressing. Anyway, the show was great, |
finally had enough money to buy their records, and
we agreed that | should try to get to PAINTED
THIN’s last show at Bremen, where a BLURR-
organized Sk8-contest was to trake place and
Carsten offered me a place in his car to get there.
But | didn’t have to wait that long. The Painties told
me that they would play a festival at Wiesbaden
which should cost about 30.- DM and that they
wanted to try to get in as many people for free as
possible. TERRORGRUPPE and LAGWAGON
were to play there, too. So me and my friend André
went to Wiesbaden on June 21° and had the fun-
time of our lives. PAINTED THIN were there and
they were accompanied by Carsten and his
girlfriend Claudia from Hannover. They did the
driver’s job for the Painties for a few days and told
us the funny stories of the tour-life. PAINTED THIN
played a solid gig, but the room was to big to get
some atmosphere. When LAGWAGON played, it
looked more like a boygroup-concert. One teenage-
grri jumped on the stage and kissed the singer.
Strange...
When it was getting late, we took to the room with
the sleeping-places, which was on the area where
the concert took place (a huge old factory-building).
While we, Carsten, Claudia, Mike (PAINTED THIN-
Tourguy), Paul (PAINTED THIN bass/vox),
Stephen, André and me were joking around, Dan
(PAINTED THIN drums) came in and told us
cores
Fisch
saat i mio
something about a bottle of whisky standing very
lonely on a table. And because we are a bunch of
lousy thieves we told him to swipe it. So he came
back with a bottle of ,Jim Beam* and only a few
minutes later we heard the reaction from outside:
»WHICH MOTHERFUCKING ASSHOLE STOLE
THAT FUCKING BOTTLE OF WHISKY! BITCH!!!"
Uh-oh, sounds like trouble, ey? The LAGWAGON-
guys were going crazy. So we hid the whisky and
all the other stuff the Painties swiped during the
day, and soon after everything was in ist place, the
LAGWAGON-guitarist entered the room and
glanced around suspiciously. Wooh, that was fun.
When it came to say good-bye again, | was happy
to say that | would definetly come to Bremen to see
their last show in Germoney. But it even got better.
| got to be on tour for the last two days of the
german PAINTED THIN-tour! Oh yeah! The support
would be in FREE YOURSELF’s hands, so | was
able to see two very good bands.. | met up with
Petrik uit ae Re ate aia
Milto, FREE YOURSELF’s guitarist, and we left for
Minden. There we met PAINTED THIN and -
suprise - Claudia. She was asked to do the food for
the evening and because she was on tour with the
Painties before she was all for it. It was a very good
show, the best | saw. | even got to see Mike’s
acoustic set. Fabulous! A great performer. You
wouldn't think that if you see Mike off-stage. He’s a
really friendly and shy guy but on stage he seems
to explode and live up. His music is a bit like
acoustic versions of JAWBREAKER songs. Get the
tape through BLURR Rec. When the Painties
played their last songs, Dan through a drum stick
at Claudia (it’s all about joking around, you know?)
because she was making fun of him all the time.
But when she threw it back, she hit him right under
his eye. | think. What Stephen said to Dan after the
show sums it up best: , It’s a strange coincidence
that the person that hit you, was the one, who
wanted to hurt you the least.“ Dan looked horrible.
But because he was so drunk he didn’t realize what
had happened to him. The next morning | had a
very interesting conversation with Stephen. And all
of our talks had one thing in common. We talked
about everything but not about punkrock. And that’s
how it should be.
Anyway, we took off to Bremen at noon (the
Painties in their van with their driver Ingo GOAR
and me and Milto in the car of Milto’s parents). The
weather looked very good and promised a fine day
for a Sk8-Contest. And, oh yeah, what a contest
this should be. A really cool sk8-park in the city of
Bremen with a pool, a snakerun and plenty of
space to have fun. They even had a car to jump
over! It was a great contest with lots of fun,
spectacular tricks and absolutely no rivalry between
the contestants. Everybody who is into sk8boarding
would have loved it. The show had a bit of a
melancholy feeling, because it was the last time |
should see PAINTED THIN play in Germoney. But
there was fun the whole night through. It ended
when Milto and me finally decided to go to sleep at
4:30 a.m. in the morning.

[BANDE ARE
The next day, everybody met at Ole’s house to
have breakfast. Then we had to Say good-bye to
the Painties, but before that, Stephen presented me
with a bottle of Vodka, which they had swiped at
Wiesbaden (lucky me, | got a bottle of
LAGWAGON-Backstage-Vodka. | think | should
sell it to some Teenie!).
And so ends the story of PAINTED THIN and me.
But, for my part, | hope this is an endless story,
‘cause | really made friends with these guys. They
are so nice and I’m really happy I've met them.
They made me feel the spirit of true punk. And I’m
happy to have experienced it...

cool, dude!!(DPM)
XSYNTHESISX - #2
Got this one from my good friend Leo, so I thought I’d give
it a review anyway. Overall this is a real nice effort despite
the fact that I found some of the writings to be a little over
the top. I never think it’s too much of a great idea to read
into the ‘““Why were SxE thing” other wise you start to
get too many wrong assumptions about the youth culture
as a whole. For a start she uses the term Straightedgers,
your either Straightedge or your not, i.e: I am Sxe, its
something that is part of me, just like my ethnic background
not an occupation or hobby i’ve adopted like being a boxer,
or brick layer, i.e: im not an edger. But beside this it’s a good
read, and it was cool to see a Fifteen interview in a SXE zine.

monkey-a sXe fanzine #3
i only bought this cuz it had AVAIL on the cover & 1 fairly
dissapointed! what the fuck is so cool about calling yourself a sXe-
fanzine? will you ever interview bands like Hammerhead, Impact
or the Suspects or are they just too punk rawk to you? oh soory i
forgot your roots lie in metal not in punk with ints like:
OneDayCloser, Halfmast, Liar & Despair. and now what pisses me
off the most is the column about sXe-friends selling out & the still-
edgy’s loosing touch with his now-lost friends. what the fuck
makes you think they’re not cool nomore?? all my friends are
fuckin’ alcoholix & i, havin’ been sXe for the last 7 years, get
along with them better than with most edgies, oh, but then i’m a
sXe-punk,right?

never give up #3
radical uk- zine that to me seems too NY-orientated, maybe this is
the NY-special cuz all (Almost) the bands are from NYC: H20,
25talife, VOD & Warzone. others are: Knuckledust(yeah, yeah!),
withdrawn & Earth Crisis.
this guy sure knows how to use the computer cuz the layout rules
& has a very computerized look o it, not as bad as Love child tho.
and he’s very very unity-based which makes this a very good HC-
sXe-zine to read. get it! in engl. for i don’t know how much.(DPM)

Mumia Abu-Jamal--death blossoms Punkrock - Hardcore - Indie - Hip Hop
wow!! Mumia’s 2nd book. for all you who don’t know Mumia
Abu-Jamal is on death row in one of PA’s worst prisons for a crime
he did not commit! as in his first book ,,LIVE FROM DEATH ; se
ROW“ he talks about everyday prison life in forms of little essays, Ritterstr. 50 50668 Koln
except that in death blossoms he’s more into philosophy. 1 liked the U+S-Bhf. Hansaring
first book a lot better, maybe also due to the fact, that in death
blossoms he talks about his religion too much. it’s beautiful to
have faith & i think on death row you really need sth to hang onto,
but he preaches about the MOVE-movement & that kinda pisses
me off. MOVE is actually a beautiful religion that also includes
animals, not just humans, but it’s a religion/cult-thing.
beautiful essays on racism, tho, that really opened my eyes to a
couple of thinx i wasn’t aware of before.
definetly a MUST-get, i recomend the first book, tho!(DPM)

INTERGRITY+guests in Wuppertal at die Bérse-100497
i really wish i didn’t go, cuz this was a horrible show!! Zwiebel,
WW, Tobias HH & toto TD had an hour drive to get there &
finally there WW & I did the Intergity Interview (read it in this
issue!). it was weird to see that Dwid was all really cool when
we were alone, but as soon as others came to sit next to us, he
let out the yob, his shoulders broadened & he was real cool.
kinda remembered me of two local bands. after the int, i asked
‘em about the shit OLC pulled & how they were involved in it &
all i got was shit like: ..we don’t know that band“, & ..we never
wanted them to be on Victory!*......oookay! and i think it
definetly sucks how they supported OLC on that clevo-Hc Fest,
where they started a riot & beat up the girl who put up the
show!! (O.-tone OLC:“beat up the liberal pussies!*).
anyways the bands sucked. DEVIATE ws horrible gmn wannabe
mosh, FURY oF 5 just plainly suck! Biohazard did the same
thing 3 years ago & much more convincing. INTERGITY were
an absolute dissapointment, & while playing a fight broke out in
the already loaded & aggressive audience between two cities:
Langenfeld & Neuwied. this fight was carried outside after
INTEGRITY’s set, where i tried to keep my people together cuz
i guess they (Zwiebel & Tobias) are kinda part of both cities.
cops came, off we were on our long drive home, which would’ve
been a short one if i still had my HONDA, but that broke down
on me!! and now i own a VW-POLO! that’s slow as shit!!!

the best malt beer ( in Gmny malt-beer is alcohol free, you sXe-
morons!) i ever had!
se er ey
Milgram, Insurrection & ??-mainhattanHC in Frankfurt,
so here we were, Sabbel & me, driving almost two hours to Tobi
Milgram’s home in Frankfurt, only to have my (exaust-)silencer
fall off & us driving around Frankfurt loud as hell, all the local
yobs turning around to see what great car could have such a cool
muffler sound. the Funkadelic is a disco, where you normally
have funk music & huge(!!), black bodyguards throwing around
the local yobs that really liked my muffler(which wasn’t there
nomore). so after hanging around with the Insurrections & Ivy
Silence i did that Milgram int, that probably will be their last
one ever cuz they broke up.(Hint, Hint--read the int).
Sabbel & I had our fun with the local militant “meat free, milk
free, god free“ patch wearing vegans. what really put me off are
all those sXe-kids that drink alc-free beer. so it’s not alcohol,
still it’s beer & to me (& to Sabbel) that’s real hippocritical.
they'll all be dirty, Hammerhead listening alcoholix in a year or
two!!!
Milgram really ruled. they were sooo emotional & at the same
time powerful. Rene(vox) almost tore down the monitors & the
whole band jumped around & had a good time. i can’t wait for
that 7“ to cum out.
i gotta say Insurrection were really tight & hit me like a wall.
powerful(used that word before) new skool- mosh, with the
whole band being sXe(cliche!!), let’s just say music to do the
windmill & all that otha kickboxing shit to. really really good.
definetly suprised me!
that mainhattan HC band sucked like hell, Deutsch-punk with )
engl. lyrix, so Sabbel & i made our way back home with the
noise so much, it was almost impossible to listen to music or y
talk. thanx to Tobi, altho next time he betta have some food & ¢ —

4/5 July; Entrancegé>.-DM
. Po —oe
It wasn't a hard decision to attend this one instead of visiting the yearly event of 'R(h)einkultur’. Rheinkultur
offered only two interesting bands, which both are known to me. Thus i found myself and a few friends on the
Autobahn to Kassel at an absolutly indiscussable time (13:00). After painstakingly standing through several
traffic jams we arrived at 16:30 in Immenhausen. There we first encountered the Lost and Found Summer
i collection worn by a few boys too young to shave. Irritated by our approach they said nothing to our
n *; questions of where and who to ask about the promised camping-site but pointed a finger into the direction of
4 Dp « the Akku. Taking this as a sign of good fortune i wandered into the realms of HC.
There it was, the concert place and our center of life for the next two days. Directly next to the entrance
by stood a tent with the inevitable merchandise and record sellers, already crowded by dozens of kids. To my
boldly spoken questions, if somebody had seen Hoffi, the host, or if someone could show me the camping
& ground, finally one fine young man answered my demand. As he started to explain he was interrupted by a
‘waa guy who said: ,You have to speak english to him, else he will not understand.“ How comes? Soon enough i
mere found out that i was something like an oddity: no vans or compatibles, no band shirt, no baggy pants, no
; x \ dyed or short-cut hair, no tattoos, no necklaces, no anything that seems to define HC today. Well, i could
weeny §=convince the friendly one that i understand german and he described the way to the camping ground.
The camping ground was several kilometers from the the Akku and in the vicinity of a scouts organization. (i
The people were real friendly and helpfull, recommending a place to set our tents. Said and done. Later we 3
‘ learned that not all members of the HC community have tongues to speak and theese settled around the
scout center and were swamped by the rain. Too bad.
After we put up our tents we raced back to the Akku, not without refilling our beer supplies, and came just in
time to hear that we missed the first band, Flaming Stars, Frankfurt. | have been told that they were nice
’ and believe this so far.
Next came Constraint from whereever. Entering the Akku i was overwhelmed by the air, that was tough.
But nontheless i stood there, bravely besting my sweat. It begun: two crunchy-munchy sounding guitars
building a fat soundwall (hats off to the mixer), bassguitar starts buzzing, drummer beats his set and a voice
like a dying pid screams something unintelligible. New school. Good spirited i endured (you notice, i am not
into newschool) that sound, lots of kids seemed to be happy about it anyway and the band was enjoying
itself. Fine atmoshere. After an hour it was all over. Happy attendants run into the open, catching air.
Insurrection was a band i was looking forward to. Martin told me that the drummer was into deathmetal and
that, besides everything efse, promised speed. And yes, they were fast, dirty and ... new school. They
sucked! This fucking new school guitar sounds drown everything, you can't hear a rythm or melody it's
shugga-shugga all the time. Needless to say the shouter was screaming like hell and you couldn't
understand a word. But the drummer was okay, trying his best to insert something like groove and feeling but
against this sound? Forget it.
Now came a local band, called Lifeforce, and guess what, new school and vegan! Nothing against vegans,
but i have been talking with a few locals that were attending the show and they told me that only the singer
was vegan and that they adopted it for images sake. Filtering the typically envy out of it it still smells like
image. Sorry. Back to the music. As said new school, somewhat moshy guitars and a screamer that my ears
; went crazy. You can't understand a thing that they sing.
“ia - Veil has been one of my favorites since the glorious first EP on Threesome Recs. | knew that they changed
Sa. 28 since then and that their LP on Frontline is shitty. But expected the best i got that. New school, yes, but with
(]KC Tr rythm and style. During soundcheck they let the mixer do his job (which was, as always, excellent done) and
KoOier Nobody demanded 'more bass, more bass' and thus we were presented a fine and tested show. Pile ons and
sing-a-longs left everyone good spirited. | just recommend: get this metal touch out of your music.

That's the first day and although nothing on behalf of the organization worked (no free camping, no busses to x

drunk their brain off, started a rampage through the scout camp and sprayed a few tents with tags. Such &

sound which separated them clearly from the other bands heard so far. As they started playing it was clear
Hardcort that theese guys are old and play old, youth crew and oi influenced HC/Punk. | know, this is a lot mixed
together, but it works. The singer had a nice ‘anti’ attitude and actually explained the contents and
Mon 9/6 { motivations of every song they played, and they preyed on the modern, fashion oriented HC community and
ENDE naturally found few friends in the public. But i stayed and got myself a bruising on the dancefloor. That was
fun.
Sun G/T | Next up was 11 Toes which should sound like Samiam but i found them to be shitty. Actually they sounded
BABI like Samiam but i think Samiam is shitty also...1 left and settled on a small field of gras and let the sun shine
i 4b on my belly.
| came’ back to see Enfold from somewhere around Bielefeld and left after two songs. New school, for
Pri 11/7 (7 comment look under Constraint/Lifeforce, etc. They all sound the same...
KRI After a short break i expected Tappat but they switched slots with Lebensreform and so i nearly missed
them. What a pity, i should have! | liked their 7“ on PerKoro but i can't say this about their life-performance.
+0 The vocals were so strained, they lacked anything like timing and sounded completly awful. | heard they will
Gun 13/7 disband, perhaps it's the best for everyone. What a disappointment. ;
Bi But then came Tappat, expecting not all too much from tanned and trained hardcore-clones i was surprised
5 to find one really good band. Something between Ignite and 7 Seconds they played good, straight HC with a
metal edge to the guitars. The drummer is a true wonder and the singer has something like charisma. They '
Gun 3/b inspirited a feeling i only know from the past and in an instance i found myself singing along a few of the very
Th cleverly selected coversongs (i.g. Uniform Choice ' Screaming for a change’ etc.) The show ended with a 10
KI minute version from 7 Seconds ‘stay young until i die’ masterpiece and a glorious pile-on which nearly
ey reached the roof. Thank you for a good show.
4! After this came Sparkmarker but i don't like their Quicksand-Jump-Jump sound anyway so i took my leave
' as i heard that Mainstrike won't play any more. Baby Gopal suck (fucking rockstars) anyway and they can
keep their Krsna stuff. | don't believe the attitude theese people bring along, so superiour and aloft that the
supporting band of their actual tour (365 days a week) may not use the same bus, which has plenty of room,
and must drive in it's own car. Don't watch their shows!
A few more thing to this festival: | know it's hard to organize something like that and i don't mind anything. A
big ‘Think again’ to people that complain about bad air in the stageroom, about missing bus connections,
about far away camping grounds, about neighborhood football games (Bochum vs. Immenhausen,
Immenhausen lost 10:0) about being charged for camping instead for free as promised, about band dropouts
(Loxiran, Soma, Milgram, Rusty James, Mainstrike, Bart's Revenge) about the distance between camping
ground and club, about food, about delays of schedule and a lot of other regulations put up by the
organizator. Do it better. With this and a big thank you to Hoffi, all bands and the excellent mixer i say till next
time.

01/09/1997 Baffdecks / Recharge
| SJZ Siegburg, 120 visitors
Once again a show in the SJZ and this time it's big. Two major players of the german punk/hardcore scene
offered their perfomrance. Both bands were on tour to promote their new records and therefore we had a lot of
merchandise stuff lying around and as far as i can judge it, it sold.
The plainly more known band, Baffdecks from Bruchsaal, played first. Whatever the mixer did to them, it was
great. Seldom i have heard such a great sound, very intense and hard. They played a few classics and naturally
all songs from their new album. It's truly amazing, they are pushed by SPV, which is a division of Motor Music
but their lyrics are really good, very critical and perceptive, hail the writer, and i guess not very suited for a mass
market. Well, they performed with a lot of hardcore-posing but were still good.
Next came Recharge from Hanover. A lot of visitors left after Baffdecks and thus Recharge played before a
diminished crowd, yes, yes, only the diehard remain. The sound were not so good, don't know why and as you
may imagine Recharge plays a Discharge influenced HC/Punk-style but they long surpassed the old masters.
‘And to kill any rumors in advance: They are not a Discharge cover-band! They played it fast and straight and did
a little punkrock-posing and their hair-do was fitting (great stuff i am writing here, hoh). Well, i think i made it
clear they looked like punkers and they played like punkers. It was good and i liked it. And much too late for the
club the evening closed. Thank you. (Bonjorno)

they are not free a ergo Satanism=religion, even tho it is an anti-religion. it does deny everything the church fui ancient talismans

all them cult-killings where people just take their beliefs too shi & cman cis saielll (913 members of the
cult the peoples temple & 260 children drank cool-aid laced with cyanide in 78), mass-murter { the family &
Charles Manson..read about that in the INTEGRITY interview /// the Supreme Truth Sect 2 the tokio-subway
gassings), child-molesting (dave Koresh a the siege of Waco ‘93), human sacrifices, rape.._.the list goes on.
i have no respect for any of these cuits or anyone who idolizes them like Integrity idolizes Manson (a sad litile
man) & the holy terrer church ( a split off group from the process.._read the Integrity int) or Endpoint went on
1 ahead @ used Mansons face in the Charlie's angels t-shirt. these people (Manson, koresh etc) are sick sick
puppies, demented a basically fucked tin the head. it ain't cool at all to molest children or to kill innocents for
no reason whatsoever. it’s just wrong.. who tells me it’s wrong? their mothers!
