The Punk zine history in Greece

published on January 12, 2007 under articles. No Comments

Greece does not have a long history on zines, let alone zines on punk music. Although you can find thousands of political and anarchist pamphlets and newspapers, some of them published for more than a decade or two, only a few zines managed to publish more than 3 or 4 issues through their lifetime.During the 80’s when the punk movement first appeared in Greece many fanzines were released. They were mostly created by young punks who needed to express themselves and their severalty over other music fans. Here are some of best known zines of the 80’s:

“Στις σκιές του B-23″ [In the shadows of B-23], first issue was released in 1988 after the merge of the two zines “Σκιές” [Shadows] (a new-wave zine, first issue in 1985) and “B-23″ (a punk/hardcore zine, first issue in 1986). 18 issues were released and also 3 7″ and 2 LP’s which accompanied some of the issues. “Bρωμιά” [Dirtiness] from the small city of Ptolemaida was also a long lived zine, although not an exclusively-punk zine, it had many articles and interviews on bands of that time. The first issue was released in 1985. Likewise, although not an exclusively-punk zine, “Rolling Under” from Thessalonica was another long- lived zine. Other zines of this era are “Πανικός” [Panic], “Decapitated”, first issue in 1988 and it was mostly about hardcore, thrash, noise and experimental music, “Κίτρινος Τύπος” [Yellow Press] which was created by the band Panx Romana and was included on their second LP (released in 1989). A new issue was published along with every release of the band. Also “Παπάρι” [Dick] with at least 8 issues which was later renamed to “Discordia” and finally “Stress” from Livadia with a single issue in 1989.
