Damned Nation, due for publication later this year, has been specifically created to cater to the sizeable yet under-represented market of dark culture fans. Covering every relevant musical, cinematic, literary and artistic sub-culture - indeed, any alternative interest specifically concerned with the darker side of popular and high culture - we will offer a full-colour, monthly edition packed with news, reviews, interviews, features, listings and free music compilations. |

| From the music of Marylin Manson to the novels of Clive Barker, the films of David Lynch to the art of the Chapman Brothers, Damned Nation will scour the alternative universe to reveal the undergrounds, the undiscovered, the new and emerging, as well as the established names of the dark side. Presented in cutting-edge graphic art, the publication has been designed to catch the eye on any news-stand before inflaming the imaginations of all who turn the page. Tired of sifting through dozens of both established and underground publications (Kerrang, Metal Hammer, Bizarre, N.M.E, Empire, Fangoria to name a few) to only infrequently find sparse information on their interests, the creators of Damned Nation have decided to produce a ground-breaking, detailed and definitive periodical for the many genres of dark material. The ever widening and increasing appeal of this stylish yet macabre alternate world of art and entertainment has provided Damned Nation with a vast potential readership, so often overlooked, that will find the magazine exciting, informative, challenging, engaging and collectible. We are currently inviting all relevant news and review copy for music releases, tours, book and comic publications, film/video/DVD/PC game releases, exhibitions, tours, merchandising, fashion, etc. that will be of interest to our readership. In terms of subject matter to be covered by the magazine, some general guidelines to the material that will shape the publication is listed below. Music styles: Goth, E.B.M, Dark Wave, Dark Ambient, Metal, Industrial, Electronic, Indie… Nine Inch Nails, Rammstein, Cradle of Filth, Coil, Covenant, VNV Nation, Apotygma Berzerk, The Cure, The Ministry, Massive Attack … Books: Literary Fiction, Horror, Crime Noir, Dark Fantasy … Poppy Z Brite, Donna Tartt, Patrick McGrath, H P Lovecraft, James Ellroy, Tolkien, Alan Warner … Film/Video/DVD: David Cronenberg, David Lynch, Peter Jackson, Dario Argento, David Fincher, Tim Burton, Catherine Bigelow … The Hunger, The Matrix, The Wicker Man, Don’t Look Now, The Exorcist, Blair Witch Project, The Others, Spider … The very name of Damned Nation will soon be on the tip of every pierced tongue among those who love the gothic, the electronic, the heavy rocking, the supernatural, the occult, the esoteric, the avant-garde, the erotic (not pornographic), the mysterious and the just plain weird. The Team. |
