Slanted i issue no. 1, Fall 1997 - One of the few zines I know of from the late ‘90s #SGVpunk scene. This issue from the Alhambra-based zine featured interviews and profiles of local bands 

@krudmusic, #LDS, #FamusLies, #SooperSlooth, Downey’s #OnionsMakeMeCry, and more 

well-known bands, plus columns that are very SGV-centric. Btw, a page or two might be missing.⁣ There was a second and final issue but I never got a copy of it.

#Syphic, #TheFeds, #LDS, #BottomLine, and #TheRevenants at a #Rosemead gig in ’98. It was over by Jim’s on San Gabriel. I used to like their steak and eggs breakfast.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My band, L.D.S. has been hitting the rehearsal studios regularly for the last few months. We relearned some old songs, wrote a couple of new ones, and now we’re ready to fuck some shit up at a bar, backyard, club or wherever. Please DM if anyone has shows we can get on. Thanks! That’s some of one of our songs, “Breaking up Inside.” Hear the whole thing on the blog — nosnappers.blogspot.com. We a played at Old Town Pub about a year ago, sounded alright, and didn’t embarrass ourselves. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Anyway, #BottomLine were @thelifeofraomero and Richard Tran’s band after Dubmbstruck. They allegedly recorded a demo, but I never heard it. The Revenants were Johanna on vocals and I forget who else. I think they were a horror punk band. @alex_1138 got his homie Jerry to have this gig at his pad and another one the following weekend.⁣⁣

#TheJawas at Richard’s pad on Redding St. in #Rosemead. This is the from the same video that @syphic put on YouTube a few years ago. The one with #Syphic from an earlier post. That’s @b_von_wolfe on vocals, Stevie G on guitar, Duke on bass, and motherfucking @carloshamma434 on drums. They later became #TheJawaz.⁣
⁣
The flyer for the gig was sent in by @syphic_sgv.⁣ According to @dandrews319’s records, #teenagerage and #creepshow didn’t play and The Munsters got added.

“THE JACKSON 5 WILL NOT BE APPEARING”

A snapper snapped, so someone called the pigs and the gig got broken up. Bullshit like that happened way too often. I’m not sure which bands got to play. Mine definitely didn’t.

Tangwich weren’t playing but were going to give out tapes? How come I didn’t get one?
