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
