Isten #5 (Finland) 1990. Editors: “Mikko Mattila” and “Luxi Lahtinen” Fantastic, long-running zine from Finland (in English) that is one of the few to achieve truly ‘cult’ status – and on that note, they are apparently constructing a retrospective book (!) that is currently closing in on 800 pages.

Grind Zone #1 (Italy/Spain) ? 1994. Director: “Claudio Cubito” (En Español) A somewhat mainstream Italian publication, translated into Spanish for Spain (and published by a German conglomerate!), yet containing many cult underground acts in their prime.
