ACK ACK ACK #2 is NOW AVAILABLE!!!!

After a long delay, the new issue is finally out. I decided to not screen print the covers this time around. Simply because it would take that much longer to get this out. I'd rather just get the zine out and move on the next issue, and other projects that are on the table.
So, for those interested, here's what's up with this issue:
40 pages.
Photocopied.
5 1/2 x 8
$5.00 ppd.
Only 100 copies made.

If interested, get in touch. You can paypal or send payment through the mail.

ISO 3200 Press
PO Box 25605
Los Angeles, CA 90025

Bands in this issue are:
Wrangler Brutes
Hellshock
The Rites
No Hope For The Kids
Tear It Up
Assfort
Cut The Shit
Born Dead Icons
Kid Congo
Romantic Gorilla

Below are some samples scanned direct from the zine:
Cut The Shit made the cover this time around. 
Spread from the Born Dead Icons section. 
Tear It Up from their 2002 tour. 
Assfort from their two Gilman shows. The photo on the bottom right was also the cover for their EP on Prank Records. 
Would you believe the third issue is in the planning stages?

Ack ACK ACK #2 almost complete.


I'll announce the complete line-up for this issue in a week or so. But I should have everything placed tonight, and will spend the next few days getting all the little details worked out, then it's complete.

For now, here's some more Tear It Up pictures that didn't make the cut.

Would you believe the Ack Ack Ack #3 is starting to get planned out?

Two posts in one week!!


Okay, I just finished selecting the last couple bands to fill the remaining pages of the second issue of Ack Ack Ack. One of those bands is Tear It Up. I've posted a photo that didn't make the cut. This photo was from what turned out to be their final tour in 2002. Of all the Y2K thrash bands, Tear It Up is the one that has aged quite well. Never whacky, no hollow poses. I guess you could say they were the real deal.
All that is left for this issue is laying out the covers, printing the covers (another screen printed job), writing an intro and some minor details and it should be out.
I'm thinking of printing somewhere between 50 to 100 copies.
Keep checking back periodically for updates.

after well over a year....


Alright, I should have put out the second issue of Ack Ack Ack last year. Obviously, it didn't happen. No real reason why. I'm more into hitting the skatepark than being productive on any level it seems lately. I'm working to change that though. Spent the past couple months scanning the negatives from the 2000 European tour for the Oath. I'll start sorting through all the photos soon and hopefully have something to show for it all sometime in the summer.
As for Ack Ack Ack #2.... working on the cover lately, and I have a few more pages to fill. In time, in time. Maybe I'll have it finished in a couple weeks. It's just choosing the bands to put in there.
I do know Born Dead Icons are going to be in it. I've included a color shot I took of them at their first show in Los Angeles back in 2002. They were a great band, nice bunch of guys, and to this day I'm glad I had the opportunity to see them live. Alright, more sooner than later...

ACK ACK ACK #2 in the works. Really!

After much hemming and hawing, and talking about it and talking about it, the second issue of Ack Ack Ack is in the works. In fact, in 2009 I intend to put out about four new issues. Why the hell not?!? I have over ten years of material sitting in negative sleeves on the top shelf in my work space closet. So get ready. For now, here are three shots of Cut The Shit that are NOT going to be in the new issue. The only reason is space is limited. Other than that... Enjoy and keep checking back for updates and more peaks of shots that didn't make the final cut in the upcoming issue.

These three shots were from their last show at the Smell in 2004.

still here... i think

Made some letter pressed posters for the upcoming issue of Ack Ack Ack. Also, the full on zine I've been working on is still happening. Getting content for it still, as well as working on the already aquired stuff. No idea on earth if anyone reads this shit, or just me. But yeah, stay tuned...
