Half Size Punk Magazine from Britain. The spelling in this rag is great, with about a mistake a page and excellent homophone use (witch for which, buy for by). The Dwarves actually answered an interview by this guy, showing exactly how cool this zine is. As well as having the piece with one of the best bands in existence currently. Vile Generation has a much longer and more in-depth interview with Academy Morticians, a small band from Coventry-mmmm Lady Godiva!-sorry I strayed… Reviews in Vile Generation are great, consisting of all sorts of bands that I have never heard of, including Brimstone, and Arfer Barr. The comics in this magazine are great, especially the Elvis one. Various phrases are thrown in, including “Only stupid people can be truly innocent†and “You can’t kill Jesus with a wonky stickâ€. Links are listed at the end of the magazine, good expect for the fact that all of the links are for major bands. If the zine dealt with more bands or if it had more politics, poetry, or anything, it would help immensely. Go to www.astroatlas.com/vg/welcome.html, or give 50p to these guys-A5-22 pages. Great layout.
