JUDAS KISS

Original review at foot of page, updates above it.

#9 September 2003

Judas Kiss #9 comes in two separately bound parts: the main magazine devoted predominantly to interviews with some features, and an extensive music review section covering similar musical territory to this webzine. Interviewees include Dies Natalis, Stimulus, While Angels Watch, Ultra United, Spiritual Front, Inade, Tobias Wimbauer on Ernst Juenger, Immanance Records and Leviathan/Monkeyhouse Records. The articles are on the musical side of Freya Aswynn and Fiendflug and there is an informative history of seminal industrial projects Throbbing Gristle and Industrial Records etc.

Lee Powell's Gloucester-based Judas Kiss is a 'small press' printed magazine with a strong devotion to the 'culture of transgression', a characteristic element of the industrial music scene, but not one that I really subscribe to personally.

Band interviews and CD reviews with an emphasis on artists like Non, Death In June, Whitehouse and Sutcliffe Jugend are complemented by articles on 'fetish diva' Midori, the history of Savoy - the Manchester-based cult bookchain/publishing venture, and a critique of The Secret King - Karl Maria Wiligut, Himmler's Lord of the Runes by Flowers and Moynihan. A massive 42-page CD-review section covers a very similar area of interest to our own and will undoubtedly be of interest to our readers.

Judas Kiss is available from a number of mail-order companies worldwide. Please contact its editor for further details
