Bloody hell! I take a few months off, and the next thing I know, UB is up to issue friggin' 19! I checked the last one I reviewed here and it was #15. Crikey!
Some great stuff in this issue - best of all is the "Part 1" of a Mu Mesons/Jaimie Leonarder interview. One of my absolute favourite documentaries ever is 'Love & Anarchy: The Wild Wild World of Jaimie Leonarder'; and one of my Top Three favourite Radio Shows Of All Tim [along with Tim Richie's Punk Program [1980s] and Maynard F Sharp Crabbes's Saturday morning radio show also from the 1980s] was The Naked City [early 2000s], so this ongoing series sure is welcome!
Also in this issue: an update on Martin Bryant; interviews with Newcastle band Dog; Yuta Matsumura [from the Sydney bands Oily Boys, Orion, and M.O.B.]; Mystrys [green-headed alien band from '60s Australia]; Randolf Reimann [Massappeal vocalist]; Colin Abrahall [GBH]; plus records reviews, film reviews. Wait a minute! Almost forgot Part 18 of "a never-ending interview with the wizard of gore, Herschell Gordon Lewis"!
This issue's cover by Jimmy Fatal. But what's the deal with the cat? Why is it wrapped up?
RIP Angus Reekie.
