GIG REVIEW: SOUL ASYLUM at WOLVERHAMPTON CIVIC HALL
I've never been to a concert before, but it was amazing. Soul Asylum were the best.
Somebody to Shove was one of the many highlights of the night.
And when the crowd wanted more, they came back and played two more classic songs.
What more can I say??! Go and see them... TODAY!

That first gig feeling!
DEAR 'ZINE,
I would like to advise the FPOL not to take any notice of the people who continue to slag him off.
Those are the few who are not content with slagging off Take That (grungers) and Nirvana (teeny-boppers).
Remember FPOL, they're just jealous and should go back to what they're best at and that's POTATO PICKING!

Yeah... right.
GET A LIFE, THEN TELL US ABOUT IT!
UMMMM...
I don't think so, Sepulchral Lord. It is I who is ruler of the 'Zine. I have travelled through Oblivion to reach these pages. I have fought the powers of anti-imagination to gain my creativity.
True, I have only just appeared, but now I have been released from my Pandora's Box of Confinement, I am here to stay. I am omnipotent and the people are my minions... etc, etc.

SO MANY CHALLENGERS - SO BORING!!!
DEAR 'ZINE,
"Everything changes but you" oh - and Take That songs. Guess what? I've heard this drivel before.
I acknowledge that TT aren't as bad as some emerging groups such as EYC and Worlds Apart whose acting and dancing skills beat their miming hands down!
Groups reaching number one no longer have to be any good as was proven by Mr Blobby and perhaps Doop.

A point well made!
ALBUM REVIEW: GUMS by BLESS
Some songs here are like having chewing gum in your ears - you can't get them out!
Hypnotic guitar riffs, moody atmosphere, distinctive vocals, together with a wide range of styles and influences make this special.
It's crazy, sad, uplifting and has more hooks than a bus load of anglers.

DEAR FRESH PRINCE OF LUTON
My darling, the time has come when we must claim back our Mega-zine.
We must get rid of all the people who are trying to overthrow us - it's what our followers want!
With your wit, my intelligence and our combined sarcasm, we will reign again, forever.
The Fresh Princess of Luton
Wit?
