DEATHROCK FLARE (Malaysia)
Issue #
1, 2000
This remind me of Manok Slash Zine, Malaysian most hated zine due to its stupid humour. But Deathrock Flare is different. The humour in the interviews, drawings, etc are entertaining and deos not make themselves look stupid. Just look at the front cover. A remake of a malay oldies movie where text have been altered. They are so creative that they beheaded Korn and replaced it with pig's head. Maybe you can find this pic somewhere in this zine. Cute A4 folded into 2 size. The drawback of this zine is the bad xerox quality and the big size font for intro of each interview. Maybe they are trying to be original but it is too big and consumed a lot of space. Also review and article included. Unfortunately this zine is written in Malay mostly. If not, I recommend this to everyone.
