Raygun: November 1995 Issue 31
With My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult plastered all over the cover of this
issue my hopes that the electro industrial genre might at least get decent
press attention have been raised. The artwork and page layout are damn
impressive and the interview with Peter Hook formerly of Joy Divison came as a
total surprise. Raygun at least has the sensibility to realize that the
alternative scene doesn't start and end with that post-punk grunge crap that
dominates the radio waves lately. The electronic music genre appears to have
obtained equal billing as the rest of the MTV spewed media blitz. The one thing
that surprised me is that the information overload of the internet seems to
have avoided contact with Raygun as it remains totally devoid on net specific
advertising or feedback communication with it's readers. This definitely makes
Raygun the odd magazine out but perhaps that is it's saving grace and that by
avoiding the bandwagon they can still continue to publish to a wide variety of
musical listenership and avoid the drivel many magazines have stooped towards
as of late.
