Received this majestic masterpiece in my hands yesterday and still compulsively reading at this time! The most important compilation in metal history!

This is just incredible. I wrote to Metalion as a preteen in the late 90s asking him if he had any more copies of Slayer #3/4 – #10. I got a piece of my original envelope back saying “Sorry no more old Slayer. -Metalion” along with the stamps I used. It’s awesome to be able to finally see these zines more than a decade later, along with his personal accounts of what was happening around that time. Highly recommended, and an awesome production job!

I miss those days of printed fanzines, tape trading and waiting a month to get that LP with post in those pre-internet yet glorious days! Slayer mag, along with selected others were like the unholy bibles for us. Still, those issues are occupying my book selves with pride! Recently I got the (yet to be legendary as well) final issue of Slayer mag with the Morbid MLP and I should grab a copy of this one as well! A big cheers and thank you to all involved, thanks also to Bazillion for filling out book selves with tons of quality reading treasures!!!

This book is so personal, a great saga to be told in the grim, yet brotherly, world of underground metal. Jon not only got personal with important figures of Death Metal and Black Metal, but he welcomed the reader in with his own personal feelings and thoughts pertaining to the tragic events we all know happened in Norway. You can’t get much more metal than this|m/
