New Systems #1, 1981

Journalist Tries To Sell Bog Paper!

An excellent fanzine here from Dean Poole, 'the phantom one-finger typer' of Penarth. Quantitatively and qualitatively spot on stuff all round with: interviews - What is Oil?, Stripey Zebras (interview by Jah Ovjam), Crass, Robert Lawrence; cassette reviews - Down Under (VA), Dharma (At Forden), A Bagful of Angst (VA), Soundtracks to Imaginary Films (Robert Gillam), Optimism/Squirrel/Absurd (Bendle), A Compilation of Greats (VA), Flexed Burial (Jim Hydraxis) + elsewhere there's Dean on Independent Cassettes; vinyl reviews - Disorder, Flipper, Crass, The Dead Kennedys, The Exploited; articles from Smear, (of Conventional Tapes) fame gives us Confessions of a Con Man, and The Get + a live review of 86 Mix/The Get/The Apostles/Cold War/Stripey Zebras/What is Oil?
