Underground Heavy Metal Hotwire (april '87)

(Submitted by Rumblefist)

This apendix to the US version of Aardschok magazine bears all the similarities to a classic fanzine, though it's hard to cathegorize it exactly. In any case it's one of the most informative publications dedicated to the 80's US Metal underground, with reoccuring scene-reports from familiar profiles such as Ron Quintana, Don Kaye and Dennis Bergeron.
NOTE that it's been really hard to index the content of these mags since many of the band names are just mentioned in passing, a la your basic News-section. I've tried to at least add the more obscure/unique names to the database...
