Still trying to figure this blog thing out, but here goes nothing. This shall be the new online web entity of So Nails fanzine. I'm assuming if you're here you've read the zine somehow. For those of you new comers. So Nails is a fanzine covering music,film,art,culture etc. Basic fanzine format, interiviews, reviews, rants etc. I'm mainly interested in freak sounds from the worlds of punk/hardcore,noise,free jazz,reggae,funk and the avant-garde. Trying to reach outside the normal scope of DIY-punk zines.
I also am developing a zine distro, mainly for the benefit of Hawaii which has nothing close to a zine scene. If you write a fanzine, perzine and would like your stuff to be read in Hawaii, please contact me.
In other news: Made more copies of So Nails#4. This one has interviews with bass&drum econo-blasphemy unit Roman Gabriel Todd's Beast Rising Out of the Sea, the graphic art duo FEEDING, and the mutant-hardcore label Fuck Yoga. Plus, a piece on punk hero and Hawaii raised local boy Lance Hahn of J-Church and and also, an article on the historic but currently decrepit Queen Theatre and it's one night as a DIY underground venue, as well as the crusade to save this Kaimuki landmark. Record reviews, photos and rants top it all off. If you'd like a copy, please comment or email me.
Have been working on articles and layout for issue five. Lots of interviews and rants so far.
Been looking for other blogs of zines and distros...if you know of any please point me in the right direction.
