The first fanzine of Peter De Potter is out !
Available on a limited edition of 600 copies.

STRAIGHT EDGE VARIATIONS

STRAIGHT EDGE, AS FLAWED IT TURNED OUT TO BE, STILL INTRIGUES ME.
HERE WAS A SUBCULTURE THAT FAVOURED A MILITANT IDEAL OF PURITY OVER ABANDON AND HEDONISM – TRY SELLING THAT.

‘X’ OVER WASHINGTON D.C.
‘X’ OVER LOS ANGELES

PASS OVER THE BUDWEISER FOR PURIFICATION.
‘KEEP OFF THE GRASS’.
CUM IN YOUR OWN HANDS.

OVER THE HILLS, AWAY FROM THE STRAIGHT EDGE SANCTUARY, DARBY CRASH FINISHED HIS LINES TO ‘GET A GRIP’ AND ‘CAUGHT IN MY EYE’.
RAYMOND PETTIBON WAS GETTING UP EARLY IN THOSE DAYS.
ED COLVER COLLECTED EVIDENCE.

THE VORTEX OF A MOSHPIT LOOKS SOMEWHAT CLEANSING.
IT RAGES, THEN CRESCENDO, THEN SERENITY AND RELIEF.
NOT THAT IT WASHES AWAY ANY SINS BECAUSE THERE SIMPLY ARE NO SINS.

YOU ARE SO GLORIOUS.
EVERYONE NEEDS TO SEE THAT.
