Snakepit issue 16 out now!
Posted by: warlordtony on Friday, March 21, 2008 - 01:42 PM
Zine News While webzines have almost exterminated what was known as fanzines back when Metal was damn strong and full of feeling, there’s still a few survivors that refuse to join the easy way, Snakepit magazine being one of those. Time for a new Metal strike with issue 16 having just been unleashed by the dogs of war! This new issue features as usual possibly the most in depth interviews you will ever read in the Metal scene with past Metallic heroes such as AFTERMATH, AGGRESSION (Canada), ANGUS, APOCALYPSE (U.K.), ARCHENEMY (The one and ONLY ARCHENEMY from L.A.!), CHEMIKILL, CYNIC, DEATH FORCE, DEATH STRIKE, DEVASTATION (IL), EXHORDER, FIRESTORM, HELL, JJ’S POWERHOUSE, LABEL SPECIAL (RAVE ON RECORDS!!), MASTER, SARDO, SCEPTRE, SINDROME, TRANSGRESSOR, VERMIN but also actual Metal heroes such as AGENT STEEL (possibly the most in depth feature ever done on them with original drummer Chuck Proffus!), CRUCIFIED MORTALS, FIRELAND, GAUNTLET, INFERNAL MAJESTY, HIBRIA, RAZOR (bassist Mike Campagnolo explains his return and more!), SEPTER, THRUSTOR and the legendary WITCHFINDER GENERAL!!! Over 106 pages filled with nothing but molten Metal, done by fans for fans!!!! And if it’s not enough to fulfil your appetite, there’s also a DEATH DEALER 2 song live 7” included available exclusively with this new issue. This Canadian Power Metal act were a leading band back in the mid ‘80s and were part of that new Metallic wave that invaded the world (EXCITER, ANVIL, RAPID TEARS, CULPRIT, JAG PANZER, WITCHKILLER, METALICA being some other names) but due to certain circumstances they never managed to achieve the success they deserved after the recording of two albums. Discover them again with those two exclusive live tracks recorded when the band was at its peak back in 1984!
The price is $8 each retail and $6 each wholesale with minimum of 10 copies.

Where else can you find filled with nothing but PURE MOLTEN Metal interviews!? If you miss the awesome early days of Metal Forces, Whiplash or Kick Ass Monthly, when you could discover promising, exciting new acts and read about mysterious past heroes, then be sure this last issue of Snakepit will fullfill your hunger!

BEFORE YOU ORDER PLEASE READ THIS:

I really hope that you guys who are gonna buy this new issue, will talk intensively around you about this, promoting it HEAVILY and what would be even better to guarantee a future to Snakepit would be to buy like four or five copies of it each of you and then selling them to your friends; a few readers did it with issue 12 (and I’m extremely grateful to them for that) but I wish everyone of you long time die hard readers would do it! After all you can get five copies for 20 Euros!
