Are you like me and live to be a freak? Do you like to dress like a zombie slut, snort pixie sticks, get pissed drunk, and eat so much candy that Keith Morris has better blood sugar levels than you? Then you must check out the fourth issue of Murder & Mayhem! Usually, Mayhem is 4 punx only, but in the spirit of Samhain, even if you aren't as punk as puke, the zine is still fun! But, please don't think that I sold out like Jared 4skin did with his shitty book Going Down The Punk Rock Highway; the Trey of Today will never let THE LOUTS, be sold on walmart or amazon. The Mayhem Zine is always DIY! So, the Halloween Zine features punks from all genres, ages, and countries! There's interviews with Raleigh legends: punk rock cartoonist, and POLVO member, Brian Walsby! Brian drew a beautiful cover; Walsby's talented! Another longtime Raleigh fuck up, Andy, from KIFF gives us more evidence of his love for KISS. Then there's the young punks keeping alive the tradition COC started: Pollute. and Chapel Hill freaks GEEKED. There's mayhem from a metalhead of HELLWITCH. Poetry including a horror haiku from my master, Mykel Board. I'm glad that piece of shit contributed; can you believe Mykel Board hates Halloween? I mean just read his blog post on the subject. Last year I sent him some candy laced with rat poison and other tricks and treats. He had his scrooge epiphany and contributed a Horror Haiku. There's also the chaos and porn you expect from the brand that bought you DRUNK's NOT DEAD.
Usually, I put links for the free download to the mp3's and pdf of the zine, but y'all are 2 spoiled. I will post a link to the pdf on AnarchoPunk.netsoon, but not here until October. My zine is paper not digital. If you want a paper copy send me $2 or a trade; email TREYOFTODAY@YAHOO.COM for contact; or paypal me. If you want the comp on cd plus bonus trax send me 5 bux or trade. You can here the 13 song track featuring "Elm Street" by Rum Luck, a MISFITS cover by DEAD STUFF, Muder & Mayhem's own horror punk, PSYCHO 13,and a live song by TSOL, you can guess which one at
The Ministers, Martyrs, and Maniacs should be checking their mailboxes for MAYHEM; there are a few at Panther Lake, Chapel of Bones, and maybe some are still at King's, I haven't got down to Sorry State yet, but I will soon. GEEKED is playing at Neptune's in Raleigh on September 26th, and if I don't get abducted by aliens, Mayhem will be there!
Speaking of being abducted by aliens, at the debut MAYHEM last night at Panther Lake, we were visited from the extraterrestrial realm. It's good to see that Brian Walsby's art and Mykel Board's poems are enjoyed intergalactically. See for yourself, they seem to love sAmmEe but who doesn't?
I will post links to the pdf in October as well as other tricks and treats. But until then, I will leave you with live footage from Geeked and Pollute.
The next issue of Murder & Mayhem will be the last! If you want in on this shit, get in touch with me before we slaughter the turkeys! Stay tuned to this blog for more MAYHEM to celebrate Satan's birthday this spooky season and updates on punk shows and other nonsense!
