FANZINEreviews

This section is reviewed by me so please, writers, don't be offended.

If any kind and generous people want me to review their fanzines, just send me an email and we'll sort something out:)

CULT OF POSITIVITY #2
It's back and better than ever. Pennie Smith move aside, Tom Catchesides has come to conquer the photography world. The pictures are the best you are ever likely to see of Mansun and they look so gorgeous. The interview is good too, especially the outtakes. There is also a Drapeski profile (not you average one either), stuff about Little Kix (that's the album and the tribute band), stuff about us fans being weird (never!) and the BeeGees!
For the address see previous review.
ON MY WALL #4
Includes random tabs, reviews of tv performances, profiles and a piccie of Stove's mum!!! It's quite good, except there's a bit where every Mansun song ever is reviewed and some are said to be "a fairly poor effort"! Outrageous. But apart from that..
Write to: Sophie, 23 Queens Terrace, Otley, W. Yorkshire, is21 3je. it's £2+ p&p
CULT OF POSITIVITY#1
The new official fanzine which sees the previous Smelling the Roses team and Take it easy lot join up to produce one monster of a fanzine. It is amazingly crammed with stuff, has great photos, possibly the funniest interview with Andie and everything else. If you only ever buy one fanzine make it this one. Write to: Cult of Positivity, new house farm, Helions Bumpstead, Haverhil, Suffolk, cb9 7an. It's only £2.

It's all that.

UNDER THE INFLUENCE#1
Another fanzine just brimming with stuff,and rather profesionally presented too. This one is also hilarious including a special 'This is our version sing me yours' piss take, rock-star rhyming slang, a classified section and a quiz that will make you spend all day on it (I know I did). Bands mentioned are Blur, Mansun, MSP, stereophonics, 'Grass, Travis etc. And most is in colour. Send £2.50 to under the influence, c/o Flat E, Court mansions, 13-15 Frognal, London, nw3 6ap.
TAKE IT EASY#3 The Chad issue
As it says, The Chad Issue has a Chad profile, interview and 'his' 7 stages including ickle baby photo. Also: a prisoner boardgame, interview with Tom Sheeham and Dear Mavis nswering your probs. Worth it just for the interview. Kinda expensive but it's glossy, man. £3 to take it easy fanzine, The Rise, Endcliffe Rise Road, Sheffield, s11 8ru.
SMELLING THE ROSES#5
Cheap considering the quality and glossiness:). With it's distinctive layout it has a bootleg special, Stove gallery (yum), paul interview and an attempt at understanding a Mansun fan's mind. Remember: attempt. Write to: Smelling the Roses, new House farm, helions Bumpstead, Haverhill, Suffolk, cb9 7an and it's £1.50 (includes p&p)
