Cannibal Corpse (US)

Hard Stuff #1 (Poland-US) Sept. 1994. Editor: “Mariusz Kmiolek” A one-off, combined effort from Poland’s Thrash ’em All and US’s Loud Magazine.

Editor: “David Horn” Sort of in between a zine and magazine, David Horn’s eventually long-running Sounds Of Death started off ambitious right away.

Diabolical Noise #6 (Poland) 1993. Editor: Jaro Szubrycht This zine out of Poland was photocopied and folded together, with no staple, yet still super cool with great outlines, borders, and a nice sense of humor.
