FEATURING

Sonorous Rising

You can’t judge a book by its cover, well maybe you get a good idea from the covers of Carpazine. What if I asked you to imagine a Ska Punk band from Southeastern Connecticut? No horns, a teleukulele, bass, drums, and a MIDI keyboard? The possibilities may overwhelm you, however, with Sonorous Rising you can see and hear it. More:

GBH

Sonorous Rising

CARPAZINE WAS THERE at a sold out Amityville Music Hall for GBH! It was the first night of their 40th anniversary tour for their album "City Baby's Revenge". Their first time playing on Long Island in over 30 years and it was amazing to see them at such a small venue. They sounded just as good as they did on the record back in 1982! More:

INTERVIEW WITH ARTIST FLOYD BINGO

Truth is a lion. I have always liked that play on words. When you arrive at Floyd Bingo Art you are greeted by a lion. Its expression will make you look a second time. And then you will find that the lion guards a rabbit hole of sight and sound. More:

The present political dynamic / paradigm we are witnessing challenged my comprehension / cognition. I began to write and draw what I was witnessing everyday. To try to understand the ... K.A.O.S. I noticed the MAGA hat was the 21st century KKK hood. I heard Nazi propaganda from Republican political rallies and Fox News and I remembered Frank Zappa identifying theocratic fascism back in the ‘80s when Ronnie was pres-ident. Making drawings is empowering. I choose not to be powerless. It's a choice. No one can take away. Peace. More:

REGGIE THOMAS

I grew up in the Bronx, New York. I was traditionally trained at LaGuardia High School and the Columbus College of Art and Design, where I received my BFE. I switched from traditional art to digital about a year ago, so all my digital stuff is self-taught on Procreate. My subject matter is mostly fantasy based and some horror. As far as my style I tend to paint and draw more loosely so you can see most of the brush strokes and sketchy lines- Just seems more fun that way. After all, that’s what art is all about right? :) Hope you enjoy! More:

Joe Tucholski

Not much has changed in my thoughts or views as an artist since issue #29 back in 2021 except that I’m 72 now. Rather than me trying to explain the concept of a painting I’d rather let the viewer come up with their own. Their’s may be more captivating. For me, as an artist though, inspiration can come from anywhere. It starts as a seed and grows on its own in my imagination. A few years ago, I was talking on the phone with someone about painting.

music

CARPAZINE was there for Skinny Puppy’s final show in DC! I battled my way through a ring of Hell to a monument of commerce. Emerging from the parking structure, the possibility of seeing Assimilate was already causing me to walk in step to an instinctive different drummer. Litters clad in black were both jarring and comforting along the walk, they would have been chased away by adults during Last Rights; now we are the adults. The image of Goths lined up across from a Dave and Buster’s was sublime. More:

If you were to connect seemingly unrelated things – Heavy Metal and the symphony orchestra, for example – you might be guilty of apophenia. That friction between opposites has never been a problem for Nick Vasallo, though – his music is equally at home in both worlds. Melding Xenakis, Varese, Extreme Metal, and Dark Ambient with gothic charm, Vasallo conjures up a muscular sonic battle that leads you on an inexorable musical journey to a conclusion where surrender is your best option.

" The people in underground are just more down to earth, more interesting people. Mainstream people and union people think they’re this special breed of people when 99.9% of them are narcissistic mediocre assholes. Some of the stories I could tell you about ‘actors’ and their smug, entitled behaviors would make you sick. Underground and punk folks aren’t like that. They just do what they want to do because they have to do it. There is no fucking hierarchy agenda other than release and having a good time. Everything on film is fake in mainstream of course. In my earlier films I’ve used real vomit, real urine, real blood. I’ve carved my entire body up with razorblades in a movie once. That would never happen on a mainstream set. For one, the union wouldn’t allow it. " More

CAMDEN

Johnny Terris

"My parents were very young when they had me. Still in high school, even. They were very into punk and metal traveling between New York and Baltimore to see The Ramones, Iggy Pop, and Slayer. So these records were always around! I remember studying these covers as a kid, absorbing the look and sound. My first true love was KISS, as much as I liked the Ramones and Iron Maiden, the imagery of KISS drew me in! I started playing drums in elementary school for the concert band and continued through the 10th grade, when I traded in the sticks for a Fender Stratocaster". More

ACID HUMAN TERRORISM

"I started White Trash Debutantes as a fun party band.. My pal Joey Ramone became an instant supporter of the band and he put us on some shows that he was promoting along with touring with The Ramones. I will always be grateful for the support he sowed us. Billy Gould produced our first record that we released on Alternative Tentacles.. Jello Biafra also supported the band and Faith No More has also been very kind to us". More

ACID HUMAN TERRORISM

"Most of us have been in bands in our pasts. Some of us are also currently in other bands aside from this one. Charlie is in a band called Blaster, I'm in a crust band called Drogato, and Joe is in M.A.D., which has been around forever.
ACID HUMAN TERRORISM got together when Teresa asked if anyone wanted to form an anarcho-punk band. The rest of us happened to answer the call". More

MARC FLOYD

"Just do it, but first and foremost educate yourself for the sake of your music and your bandmates. Also very important!! Don’t be a douche, be nice to everybody. I believe tha’s the first stage of anarchism! Be an excellent fella to everybody except a fucking nazi!! Fuck those guys!! Big time!!" More

MARC FLOYD

" We run a Safe House in Vancouver for street kids and high-risk youths who stay with us for a short time while we try to figure out how to help them. We’ve been doing this for over a decade and have had around 800 kids living with us in that time". More
