\centerline{\hl Zines, Music, all that stuff}

These aren't meant to be ``reviews'', where we tell you what's�
``good'' and ``bad'', but descriptions of things we think are�
worth looking at from a homo-punk perspective. If you see�
anything you think others should know about, either send it in or�
write it up and tell us! There's a lot of things that should be�
in here and aren't. We get lots of zines here, especially, and�
many SHOULD be reviewed, but there simply isn't time or space.�
The one thing that always holds up HC production is doing these�
``reviews'', so send them in like you'd send in a letter or�
something.

{\entry TRAGIC MULATTO Chartreuse Toulouse} (Alternative�
Tentacles) Another great record from a totally underrated SF�
band. Local reviewers don't know what to do with them. They get�
put in all sorts of stupid categories, none of which make any�
sense (the latest was ``art rock''!)

Here's my categorization: TMs music is very tight, complex, and�
intricate without going overboard (unlike NO MEANS NO -- whose�
music ends up as technical indulgences lost on non-musicians like�
me). It ain't hardcore -- it's too rich practiced, though it's�
grungy in the right way. It ain't rock either -- though they do�
some covers (like you ain't never heard) -- Jimi Hendricks' I�
DONT MIND in this case. Two drummers, Mark and Bambi (ex-Shred�
Pit roomie -- hi Bambi!). Vocals are mainly Gail, who also plays�
sex I mean sax, and tuba. (Bambi and Gail's girlfriend Lisa�
(another ex-Shred O' Dignity roomie!) are/were also in�
MUDWIMMIN.) 

Gail has a scary, incredible voice, and with the bizarre lyrics,�
the stage weirdness, the first thing you think of is {\it sex}.�
If you'd see them perform you'd understand -- and understand also�
why the local, mainly straight press, (in more than one sense of�
the word) have a hard time figuring out what is going on. They�
get hung up on the wrong parts. They see some too-weird people on�
stage, sexually explicit (and rude) behaviour, and make all the�
wrong assumptions, and totally miss the deadpan jokes and�
innuendos, and in general (and as usual) see only what they wanna�
see. Too bad, their loss. (Well, ours (and TMs) too -- I think�
it's also why there aren't as many gay/homopunk types at their�
shows -- it's not in the line of P.C. sex politics.) Lots of the�
songs refer to places and things in SF, parts of the local�
scenery (like bike messengers, local dyke bars, etc) that is lost�
on many people, but otherwise adds another element if you do.

Basically, I think it's too sophisticated for most people (how's�
that for judgemental). TM is my favorite band, local or not,�
period. i'll even go to shows at Dog Penis' house to see them! �

{\entry BULLSHIT MONTHLY} (175 5th Ave \#2589, New York NY 10010)�
Price varies from 35\cents\ for the current issue, up to \$1 for�
back issues. Prolly send a buck and you'll get some samples.

Mike Bullshit is the editor of BSM, a large-format 8 page�
definitely punk-rock zine, of reviews, opinion, news, graphics,�
cartoons\dots all done in a dense but readable style. There's�
something about Mike's attitude that makes you like this thing,�
besides the mix of reviews and commentary. He's also in the band�
GO!, who's 7" is mentioned elsewhere in this column. 

He's also been putting on shows at ABC NO RIO (whose latest zine�
is not reviewed this issue, due only to lack of reviewers \&�
time!), a notoriously cool and supportive place, and specifically�
not booking sexist, racist and homophobic bands. Write to Mike�
for info on these shows.

And on top of it all, my copy of \#21 came with one part outlined�
in red: ``BSM is proud to be gay owned and operated. It's better�
to be hated for what you are than loved for who you're not.''�
There's an interview with him in JERSEY BEAT \#39. Basically,�
Mike just had enough. He got a lot of the stuff I got -- why are�
you bringing this up, there's no need to, this is punk, etc, all�
the shit straight ``friends'' do to avoid the subject. My guess�
is that there's now the beginnings of real support out there for�
people to come out. 

It's too bad you have to work so hard and be so articulate just�
to live your life. But the more people do it, the easier it gets�
for everyone else who follows. Ten cheers for Mike in coming out�
in what's generally a pretty homophobic environment (punk rock�
shit). 

ANYWAYS -- Also included in BSM is a record trade list,�
have/want. I'm not into record collecting so no comment here. �

{\entry GOD IS AN ASSHOLE} \#5 (The lesbian/gay rights issue)�
(S.M. Steppenwolf, 1901 7th St, Long Beach CA 90813) 2 stamps.�
Wow! A straight punk type person actually went and on his own,�
did a lez/fag issue of a zine! I have nothing but respect for�
someone who is confident enough to not worry about what the�
dickheads will think. It seems so obvious to me, (and�
Steppenwolf) that you don't expect only black people to confront�
racist shit, and you don't expect only homos to confront�
homophobic shit. Obviously it's not obvious! 

Hell, Steppenwolf's got his shit together (on paper at least!)�
more than many gay people I know. He also writes about an ACT/UP�
demo he attended, and what sorta shit went down. There's a�
letters column, a short article on the exploitation of skating,�
stuf fon recycling (he works at a recycling center), a flyer for�
a Punk Picnic (what a cool idea!), stolen cartoons, reviews and�
collages. Other issues of GOD IS AN ASSHOLS have other themes.�
Don't put the name on the envelope, the PO won't like it.

Of all the zines I have received, this one is in my ``KEEP''�
pile. \by{tj}

{\entry TASTE OF LATEX} \#1 (Box 460122, San Francisco CA�
94146-0122) \$3 By Lily Braindrop, who you may know from her�
MAXIMUMROCKNROLL column and elsewhere. This is the first issue of�
a rag that's gonna be big. It's a bit pricey for 24 pages, but�
the format is large and I'm sure will get filled out once it�
starts rolling.

This is a positive-sex, polysexual/multi-orientation zine.�
Erotica with a social, non-preachy attitude, with Mz. Lily�
solidly walking that fine line.

There's an editorial by Mz. Lily herself on the how and why of�
TOL; a basic article on S\&M; a great butch/femme story with a�
surprise ending; an interview with Annie Sprinkle; sexy photos of�
men and women; and a How To on answering personals.

I think it's safe to say that any sex-positive art, photos,�
writing, whatever would be seriously considered for upcoming�
issues, gay, straight, whatever. \by{tj}

{\entry THE WORLD IN SHREDS -- PART 4: NEW JERSEY} (Blacklist�
Mailorder, 181 Shipley, San Francisco CA 94107) \$2.40 +�
90\cents\ postage. A 7" six song compilation, with THE UNDEAD,�
P.E.D., STICKS AND STONES, SEPARATE PEACE, A PRIORI, and last and�
definitely not least, PARASITES.

The music is all pretty much post-punk pop-punk (huh?). The only�
song I don't care much for is P.E.D.s ``I AM SAM''; it's a�
novelty song, white-boy rap with sampling. Too slick for me. They�
are capable of better. The rest is really great, the songs are�
stylistically close (a sign of a good comp), with THE UNDEAD, A�
PRIORI and PARASITES my favorites.

The PARASITES' ``Male call'' was my favorite song on the JDs TOP�
TEN HOMOCORE HITS tape, reviewed in HC\#5. \by{tj}

{\entry SISTER NOBODY} (2336 Market St \#128, San Francisco CA�
94114) \$1. AARGH!!! Someone took my SISTER NOBODY to review, and�
they never did it. Maybe they will for \#7?

SISTER NOBODY is one of the better local zines. It's been months�
since I've seen it, so I can't tell you exactly what's in it, but�
G.B. Jones and Bruce LaBruce (of JDs zine) wrote about their�
summer here in SF. Some cool artwork. Rants and articles. Music�
stuff. And a totally different attitude and feel from any other�
zine. Refreshingly so. Get it!

And to wheever has my copy -- please return it! Preferably with a�
review. \by{tj}

{\entry PAVEMENT OF SURFACE} \#4 (c/o Queer Riot Press, 2336�
Market St \#133, San Francisco CA 94114) \$1 Caffeine Eris homo�
butthole fnord Karen Elliot caffeine you freak out out damned�
spots are driving Bud away faggots and orgone liberation�
Nihilsonism TOPY dreammachine kit instructions faggots rioting�
caffeine, caffeine police germ warfare Germs industrial workers�
of the world quit quasiantierisianilluminatiism caffeine,�
caffeine, fucking caffeine!

Erisian propaganda of the most insidious sort. Even if you simply�
glance at it and throw it away, you have been effected. P.O.S.�
has more of an edge these days, is it the caffeine or something�
else? This one is 48 pages (!), filled with some of the best�
collages, reichian stuff, including complete dreammachine plans�
(incl. pattern for cutting out the slots), some Temple Ov Psychic�
Youth stuff, the intense psychedelia of Luke Breckon, some poetry�
and weird essayettes.

Deke is also the singer for COMRADES IN ARMS, the first all-fag�
punk rock band. (If they're wrong, the world would like to know�
-- send hard evidence.) Explicit fag lyrics that even Jimmy�
Somerville couldn't get away with. I was hoping there'd be more�
on this subject but no one wrote about it. No one sent pictures.�
Boohoo. (I did tape it however.) BUT ANYWAYS -- I'm off the�
subject. \by{tj}

\bar

{\entry YOUTH LIB} \#2 (Syndicat Des Eleves, 2035 Boulevard 
St.- Laurent, Montreal Quebec H2X 2T3, CANADA) \$1 (Don't forget�
letters are 30\cents\ to Canada) A youth liberation zine,�
composed mostly of articles and news clippings as well as lots of�
practical information for kids wanting to get out of their�
current situation -- how to run away, contact info, stories about�
homophobia, racism and sexism, schools (gets lots of coverage for�
obvious reasons), drugs used on ``hyperactive'' (read: uppity)�
kids, a list of anti-racist skin groups (lots of runaway kids are�
skinheads/vice versa), and a list of gay zines/groups. Mostly�
english, some in french.

It's a great zine. When I look at it it's kinda depressing in a�
way, as it reminds me of how terrible it was for me to be a kid.�
But this zine has got lots of cool shit, it's not negative at�
all. I hope they continue\dots \by{tj}

\bar

{\entry PUNK BEAT} \#1 -- \#2 (Joe Britz, 151 First Ave Box A,�
New York NY 10003) \$1? A homo-punk zine/newsletter. I'm confused�
as to which is the first issue, though it doesn't matter. One is�
large format 6 pages. There's an opinion/news column (dirt on�
that asshole Gerard Cosloy, who released the homophobic FROGS lp,�
was fired!; good insight into the so-called ``Rooney affair'' re:�
censorship. HUNK BEAT, ``who's hot in clubland'', photos of�
shirtless band members. This is thr ``wrestling'' theme issue --�
original hot fiction and a some photos. 

The other issue is thr ``Punks in Bondage'' issue, zine format,�
and definitely erotic. Computer-scanned photos, 8 or more steamy�
stories (though jail is simply scary -- bondage is fun, but cops�
are not!) (I'd love to have a copy of the photo on the READING�
LIST page!)

This is for boys only, and it is hot. I can't wait for the next�
one! I will not be lending this zine out! \by{tj}

{\entry THE ADVENTURES OF DOLO R\^OMY IN THE UNDERGROUND CITY}�
(Dolo Blue Graphics, Box 80023, MInneapolis MN 55409) \$4. By�
Karen Platt. Dolo R\^omy, 
foxy drifter-adventurer-heartbreaker-dyke-babe, 
whilst searching for her missing pal, Rawto, stumbles upon the�
world's best kept secret -- THE UNDERGROUND CITY OF WOMEN.�
Established in 1973, the city thrives beneath St. Louis, teeming�
with 60,000 swingin' dykes -- in R\^omy's words ``They've got�
everything here, except men and traffic.'' But there's trouble in�
paradise -- a coup's a brewin', and R\^omy takes it upon herself�
to save the day. Okay, so there's the general idea, but there's�
so much more. Lots of sex for one thing and loads of caustic wit.�
The real genius here is Platt's portrayal of the secret city and�
the women in it. This is not utopia. There are police and an�
army, power struggles, and other general stupidity, just like�
above ground and R\^omy confronts it all. I want a date with her.�
No, maybe I want a date with Platt. Anyhow, the drawings are not�
the usual comic book fare -- I guess I won't even try to describe�
it, just way cool. Coming soon: DOLO R\^OMY IN ``SET A BAD, BAD�
EXAMPLE''. You know you want it. \by{Laura}

{\entry ROCK AGAINST SEXISM} Vol. 3 No. 1 (Basement, 464 Harrison�
Ave., Boston, Mass 02118) \$1. Excellent integrated�
gay/straight/girl/boy 'zine with a healthy emphasis on direct�
action. This issue has interviews with Mecca Normal and our own�
HOMOCORE, a reprint of New Lavender Panthers' ``Don't Be Gay''�
(the most intelligent thing ever written on punk/sex/politics),�
accounts of direct actions in the Boston area, photos of boys in�
skirts, and many witty small photo/graphic bits. I especially�
liked the illustrated guide for making a condom into a dental dam�
thing for safe girlie tongue sex, reprinted from the British�
anarcho-fem 'zine Shocking Pink. There are also very detailed�
reviews of shows (not exclusively Boston), records, and 'zines.�
Printed on the kind of paper that doesn't go yellow right away,�
or rub ink off onto your fingers. A fun and rambunctious zine, by�
people who know that fighting sexism means more than calling for�
equal paternity leave. \by{greta}

\bar

{\entry PUNCHLINE} \#4 (John Yates P.O.Box 11458, SF CA 94101)�
\$1. John definitely has the software that makes those round�
circle graphics. This issue is the Flags-R-Us issue; with�
editorial and Jello Biafra interview investigating certain�
aspects of icon worship, symbolism, and patriotism. This is first�
and foremost a 'zine of impeccable graphics, by John Yates, Doug�
Minkler, Jos Sances, Winston Smith, Martin Sprouse, and fabulous�
comic by Jason Traeger. Every page is a centerfold, and you can't�
really argue with the Ignorance-Apathy-War-Are-Bad politics. It�
interests me, though, that many of these guys have adopted the�
seamless, voice of authority, absolutely no ragged edges graphic�
style that is part of the criticized organism. Yeah, yeah, it's�
de-construction, and using the language of the regime to subvert�
their intentions, etc. But at a certain point this approach falls�
over its own preponderance, and becomes an exercise in scolding.�
I think that volleying these symbols back and forth with the�
capitalist/war institutions reflects a little icon worship of its�
own. Regardless, PUNCHLINE is an excellent publication, and I�
have been even more enthusiastic about other issues. (Different�
theme each issue.) \by{greta}

{\entry ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO FREE} \#7 (P.O. Box 1484, Oxford�
MS 38655) \$1.50 ppd. This 'zine is packed full of great music�
info and interviews with mostly boy bands, interesting article on�
anarchy and punk historical stuff, reviews of shows (I couldn't�
find Oxford on the map, but these people seem to go to shows�
regularly in three or four other states\dots). The best is the�
interview by punks of Richard Barrett, head of the Nationalist�
Movement. He says his usual idiotic party line and is generally�
revealed as a fool. There are 53 record reviews, all in�
alphabetical order, of many many bands. Reviewers loved BAD�
BRAINS and WRECKING CREW, which made me wonder if they either�
don't know the words, or maybe fagbashing stuff is not as big a�
deal to them as racist stuff. Also many 'zine reviews. �

{\entry MR. T EXPERIENCE} ``So long Sucker/ Zero'' (Lookout!�
Records, P.O. Box 1000, Laytonville, CA, 95454) What can I say�
but, I just like these guys! This little sampler is out on�
Lookout! Records\dots another fine release. Both songs are Mr. T�
all the way\dots power pop ecstacy. ``Sucker'' is by Dr. Frank \&�
``Zero'' is by Jon, no doubt. If you like their earlier stuff,�
you'll drool for this. \by{shawn}

{\entry JAWBREAKER} ``Busy/ Equalized'' (Shredder Records, 181�
Shipley, SF, CA, 94107) Jawbreaker is one thing, of very few�
things, that makes me realize that LA isn't totally out of it.�
This 3-piece has been on a few comps this past year, has an�
earlier 7" out, and now they release this 2 songer on Shredder,�
with a full lp due in late May. I'm not sure what to ``classify''�
them as\dots power pop/punk/rythymic/rockin like hell\dots very�
good lyrics\dots shit- BUY IT! \by{shawn}

{\entry SAMIAM} ``I AM'' (Lookout! Records, Box 1000, Laytonville�
CA 95454) This 4-song record comes from x-members of Soup,�
Isocracy, \& Social Unrest, now rolled into one, with the�
addition of the drummer. They sound very different from the�
afore-mentioned bands. Sorta-kinda punky\dots hard but slower,�
breaky, good vocals; Hell, some folks like em, some don't\dots �
oh well. ``Tired o Waiting'' \& ``Too Many Buttons'' stand out.�
Good deal- full lp due out soon on New Red Archives Records. �

7"er out on very small records. This is excellent- get it fast,�

{\entry BAZOOKA JOE} ``Send In The Klowns'' (Headcleaner Rec\-ords, 
P.O. Box 8141, Myrtle Beach, SC, 29578) Six songs from South�
Carolina's homeboys of hardcore. This disk rips! Been out a�

{\entry GO!} ``And The Time Is Now\dots '' (Noo Yawk Rehkids, 175�
5th ave, Ste. 2589, NY, NY, 10010) This is fuckin 
hard-ass, angry hardcore. Go! has the pleasure of breaking my�
``NY Punkrock'' cherry\dots never payed attn. to h/c from NY\dots�
thought it was just a bunch of macho, racist shits. Go!'s record�
label, Noo Yawk Rehkids, states, ``N.Y.R. is completely anti-racism, 
anti-sexism, anti-homophobic, and anti-xenophobic.'' W/ lyrics�
like ``Confess your sins if you expect absolution.'', ``Milk does�
a body good!'', \& ``I'm not giving out answers of the way things�
should be; a lot of leople are preaching, but that sure ain't�

1, Liege 1, Belgium) This is a compilation devoted to the issue�
of feminism. Atavistic, Pleasant Valley Children, Dissent,�
Cringer, Culture Shock, The Ex, + 8 other bands play from h/c to�
punk to ska to industrial on this worldwide comp. It comes�
complete with a huge foldout cover of articles and lyrics by the�

{\entry BOMB} ``Happy All The Time'' (Boner Records, PO Box 2081,�
Berkeley, CA, 94702-0081) What can I say? I like Bomb\dots �
either you do or you can fuck off. You never know when they're�
together or broken up, exactly who's playing in the band, or�
where the hell they are. I think they must break up after every�
show or something. If you haven't heard their first album yet,�
listen to this one first. It'll set you up for the other one.�
``Happy\dots '' has 6 trax on it, my favorite being ``Because Pan�
Says''- yeah! They redo ``Healthfood And Heroin'', a little�
slower this time. Also, got a new guitar player. Bomb is�
Bomb\dots see them\dots buy their records\dots do drugs\dots �
have sex. \by{shawn}

{\entry FRIGHTWIG} ``Phone Sexy'' (Boner Records, PO Box 2081,�
Berkeley, CA, 94702-0081) This is a fine album! They haven't put�
out anything in a while, but this more than makes up for it.�
Frightwig's another one of those bands that you never quite know�
what the status of it is. Lynn of Dicks \& S.D.H. fame is bangin�
for em on this one.Five tracks of power all the way. Highly�
recommended. \by{shawn}

\bar


{\entry SABOT} ``Surface Tension'' (Slime Records, 2702 18th St,�
SF, CA, 94110) Sabot is composed of a bassist and a drummer\dots �
nothing more, nothing less. Chris and Hilary know how to play�
their instruments. Their blend is powerful and inspiring. No�
words are spoken. The music does the talking. They like the music�
they play, and they like playing it. It shows. The music is jazzy�
and fast to slow and funky at times, all the while tough. The�
jacket is very well done, with a long written piece on the back�
by peter plate. I recommend this because it is a great album, and�
because it is different. If you're not stuck in the proverbial�
rut and want to expand your horizons, get it! \by{shawn}

{\entry OVO} \#7 (Box 23061, Knoxville TN 37933-1061) \$5�
(Cash/MO only) By Trevor Blake. \#5 reviewed in HC\#5, this is�
the promised Information Issue. OVO\#7 is incredibly well�
conceived and executed -- the overall format, and the density and�
intensity, reminds me (sort of) of Semiotext (e). (Which if you�
don't have -- you should get.) It has a table of contents! (and�
84 pages!) \#7 is about information -- as a concept but mainly�
about exposing the information we are immersed in every day, and�
generally from angles not usually covered. Fucking with images�
and legality. Copyrights. Dreammachines. Fanatical christian�
organizations tracts and artwork. A zillion weird examples and�
detournments of ``information''. Plus stuff from people of�
various knownness from well- to un-. Plus of course Trevor's�
various writings throughout.

I gave the wrong price for this issue in HC\#5. It's \$5. OVO�
comes with a short catalog of interesting stuff -- zines, tapes,�
books, etc.

OVO\#8 will be the ``EXPERIMENTS AND EVIDENCE issue -- Oct 90 --�
EVIDENCE: (found truths contradicting established truths) 
Non-physical self-awarenesses; anomalous events; conciousness�
outside time and space; conspiracy. EXPERIMENTS: (concept:�
action: result: record) self; involuntary; environment;�
expression; failure.'' Submissions welcome. \by{tj}

{\entry CHAOTIK WORLD NEWS AND OLDS} \#22, \#20 (TESC, Building D�
Room 106, Olympia WA 98505) \$1/ea/no checks. The second and�
fourth issues, respectively. (You've got a calculator -- figure�
it out.) Various back issues are available -- send a buck for�
each. Damn insidious discordian zine. The only movie reviews�
worth reading anywhere (the only person on the entire planet I�
can watch movies with!) An article on how (and why) to kill your�
parents. A definite anti-Bob attitude. Dozens of small, subtle�
(and therefore much more interesting) collages. All issues�
consist mostly of original essays and rants on various subjects,�
and none of the usual retread subjects (thank you). 

You also get to watch Ivan Stang (subgenius) and Bob Black�
(anarcho-loudmouth) make fun of each other (and fools of them�
selves) spread over a few issues, as they toss insults and�
threats back and forth. 

This is also my boyfriends zine, so if you don't get it I won't�
talk to you. He lives far, far away from me, so the more money�
you send him the sooner I can see him again. (I intentionally let�
someone else review CWN\&O in HC\#5, for some warped sense of�
``objectivity'' or something. Fuck that weak shit.)

Is this cryptic illuminati propaganda, or the One Sane Anchor In�
This Raging Sea Of False Belief? (It is true that, for a while at�
least, it was an Official Publication of T.E.S.C.!) \by{tj}

{\entry MILQUETOAST} (Jeffery Kennedy, 555 O'Farrell St \#103,�
San Francisco CA 94102) Free, SASE. A modest foldout one-sheet�
zine by the editor of the (now defunct) BOYSVILLE USA, since�
moved to San Francisco (obviously). A curious mix of sexual and�
pop images\dots on pink paper of course. Get one and see! \by{tj}
