SONIC DEATH. THE EARLY NINETIES SONIC YOUTH FANZINE. ALL SEVEN ISSUES FINALLY COLLECTED TOGETHER. IT TOOK A WHILE BUT THEY ARE WORTH THE WAIT IN GOLD! NO BETTER BAND ZINES EVER MADE. ISSUED BETWEEN 1992 AND 1995 JUST LIKE, WE IMAGINE, MANY OF YOU TOO. 

Of course Keanu on the cover of the first ever issue. 

"I really like Sonic Youth. I had an opportunity to be in one of their videos... but I didn't feel cool enough... but I did a Paula Abdul video. I guess I felt cool enough for that. But then I saw snatches of that. And I thought, 'Wow, man, you're not cool enough for that, either."

Blowfly on the cover of issue 2! If you don't know him by now, try this video link. Good grief!

Of course there is fan art. Thurston Moore portrait is ace.

Another gem of a back cover. Mike Watt - co-founder of Minutemen and ex-Sonic Youth bassist - with the big quote.

Our favourite page in all the issues. KIM DEAL CALLS CANNONBALL A REGGAE SONG. Adorable.

Sonic Death does fashion. On the cover at least with Kirsten Owen. A photo ripped from a Zucca shoot maybe... it is very '93. And, yes, the word you are looking for is grunge.

We just love Kim Gordon in press-clipping, photocopy xerox repro.

Awesome Royal Trux cover of issue 5 with SONIC DEATH badge attached.

And this cover of the third issue which is MEGA RARE and the reason why this issues 1-7 collection took two years to complete. 

But we have done it. And they are of course for sale. Make them your own in your own home on the green button below. Added a few more Sonic Youth rarities to that button too btw (for customers who are not museum grade curators with museum grade budgets). Enjoy.
