Weekly Top 10

Published on July 13, 2011 0 Comments

1. Metalion: The Slayer Mag Diaries by Jon “Metalion” Kristiansen and Tara G.Warrior (Bazillion Points) $39.95 – The greatest heavy metal story ever told—the complete tale of a life lived for metal. Part anthology, part memoir, and years in the making, METALION includes over 600 reproduction pages from every issue of Slayer Mag—Slayer 1 through Slayer XX, plus the precursor Live Wire zine—spanning from the early 1980s through 2010. In addition, author Jon Kristiansen recounts his life’s story, from alienated outsider to central figure in Norwegian black metal to metal party beast to world-weary metal survivor. The book also features over 100 rare photographs, including two color sections and a portrait gallery of photographs taken by Kristiansen himself. For twenty-five years, Norway’s Slayer Mag published the gospel of black metal and death metal, combining eye-ripping graphics, brutally honest writing, and relentless offbeat humor. With this anthology/memoir, editor Jon “Metalion” Kristiansen unfolds the extreme highs and lows of a life lived for heavy metal. Founded in 1985 in Sarpsborg, Norway, Slayer Mag quickly rose to prominence by championing countless unsigned death metal pioneers. The pages of Slayer Mag exploded along with the extreme metal underground, and as black metal rose to prominence in Norway in the 1990s, Slayer Mag remained the final word on the moods and motivations of those dark times. Expertly edited by friend and peer Tara G. Warrior. Thanks to everybody that came out for this amazing event last week!

It’s a tricky topic…how and why do you archive media that often openly flaunts itself as underground, anti-establishment and anti-catagorization. They interview Milo Miller from the Queer Zine Archive Project, Alison Piepmeier, author of Girl Zines, Adela C Licona author of Zines In the Third Space and Teal Triggs, author of the controversial “Fanzines” coffee table book that glossed over many issues of author consent and compensation. Jenna “Lower East Side Librarian” Freedman rounds out the issue with a breakdown of what seperates zines from blogs.

His subjects ranged from the sublime to the ridiculous. But sometimes what had seemed trivial began to seem important—and what had seemed important began to seem less so. Why does a computer last only three years? How often should you see your parents? How should we behave at parties? Is marriage getting easier? What can spam tell us about the world?
