Review by Louis Fowler of Damaged
Magazine
Moderately entertaining zine, with a few good pieces, especially the mix-tape article (I'm very guilty of making a mixtape for a girl I want to bang), the zine reviews and the awesome article about Warren Zevon. It actually made me go out and buy
Excitable Boy. But for every great article, there are two crap ones. Anytime the zine goes into horrible poetry (note to all publishers: EVERYONE HATES POETRY!), or even worse, when it devolves into half-baked, uninformed, bumper-sticker politics, it becomes the same-old thing everyone seems to be making these days. Yeah, yeah, Bush sucks, blah blah. Find a new platform because it's getting old. And also, why all the press for the Red Hot Valentines? Who are they? Are they your friends or something?
