Sapilla #7/Μελωδία της οργής [Melody of rage] (30p, 5euros, greek)

After a yearly delay, the new issue of Sapilla zine is finally out. This is a “split” zine but both parts are created by the same person. The first half is the known punk comic “Sapilla”. Black and white comics dealing with modern life issues suck as alienation, disaffection, hypocrisy, the cruelty on animals and more. Compared to the comics on previous issues the subjects and the comic style are deeper, rawer and are touching darker parts of the soul. The second part, “Melodia tis Orgis” is a music zine, featuring strictly diy bands. You will find interviews of Straightjacket Fit, Kalashnikov, Μεθυσμένα Ξωτικά [Methismena Ksotika, Drunk Gremlins] and Tug. Also articles on Kill the Cat and Ανατέλλων Τρόμος [Anatellon Tromos, Raising Terror] and some reviews. The layout and the quality of the zine is the extremely good, the best so far, on glossy thick paper, very “professional”. And it’s not just that, it comes with many extras. Each copy contains five cards and a 6-track cd (not cd-r, in a beautiful case) with songs of the bands on Melody of Rage. Overall a great work.
