ALTERNATIVE MAGAZINE #2 2003 [Turkey]

Don’t get it wrong, don’t get confuse with it’s name. It’s not an alternative music magazine, it’s real metal/grind magazine. This is the first time I read a mag from that area, they’re good & I also can say they’re better than me!! 44 A4 pages with glossy black & white cover. 20 inties with Theatre Of Tragedy, The Gathering, Hypnos, Lunatic Gods, Fatima Hill…etc. some interviews are too long & interesting but others are too short, just take half page to finish. More than hundreds reviews which was separated into 5 sections! Among SEA stuffs inside are Random, CTD zine (Thai), Vrykolakas (Sin), & Tengkorak (Ind). The editor also mention about Steel Madness while reviewing Random. Also article (scene report), A Romanian Black Metal Scene Report. Some spaces just suit with flyer or advertisement. The editor also handles his own distro with same name – Alternative Distribution.
