Basements & Living Rooms Issue 2
53 pages / half letter
$2 / shannon@qzap.org
The theme of issue two is Tours & Road Trips & over
twenty people contribute their stories, photography, poetry & creativity to
this volume. Eddie Chapman & Steev Barker’s illustrations are fun to
discover, each with a distinctive visual style. Tyler Gwizdek’s poem
“Everything becomes full” astutely expresses the whirling dervish energy that
builds at a great live show. Other than that, nothing else in this issue feels compelling, it’s mostly kind of mediocre. I embrace anyone and any
scene that is taking music back from corporate profiteers. However knowing full
well that I am 30 years older than this zine’s intended audience, I just feel
like more of an outsider looking in to an increasingly insular “punk”
“culture”.
