Hiroshima Yeah! # 130 – December 2015 (Zine)



This is a cut & paste, black & white, 8.5 by 11 inches, photocopied monthly zine. I`m biased here, Hiroshima Yeah! Is one of my favorite zines, along the late and great Node Pajomo. Gary Simons does an amazing cover (old school sci-fi kinda 2001 A space Odyssey, it looks like old sci-fi pulp magazines, nice job). On the second page we have poetry `passion, caution, timing `department. Standout poems of the moment are:
Nostalgia wank
Looking through old VHS tapes
Before tossing them in the bin,
Seeing if anything inspires
A nostalgia wank
But nothing does.
And
Alistair Ramone
You are young,
Loud,
Drunk,
But one day you will
Be one of the people
On the periphery.
One of us,
There`s some music, concerts (Fidler, The Garage, Glasgow, 12-11-2015 and Legendary Shack Shakers, Broadcast, Glasgow, 12-11-2015), and DVD reviews. Last but not least there`s some short stories included: `13.82 billion years of hell` (Gary Simmons, do I need to say more), `robots to Pluto ` (more from da man, Gary Simons), `some days`(Mark Ritchie), and `doctor Thornaby `(nice and weird, just the way I like it).
