Re: Boy's Own fanzine
haha! obviously Rusto isn't familiar with some of our History with that lot!
I love that opening list of excuses about racism etc. Obviously they doth protest too much
I left their forum precisely because they were full of hate.

Can't even mention that lot without losing my cool. I fucking hate them. Just the worst type of London wankers. They think they are so brilliant and they really come across as horrible bitter old twats. Sitting in judgement on everything like fat toads.
Grrrr

The clue's in the name.
No place for us Vaginas.

Not a nice place.

I only looked at it after you lot were griping about it but it does seem a bit schoolyard on there.

I have to say though, I bought the hardback collection of the original fanzines before christmas and it's an amazing read. A great record of a vety exciting time for UK culture.

I think they are referring to the forum not the magazine mate. Same people I believe.

I agree, although I think it just brings up nostalgic memories of badgering Everton & Umberto in Hip for when they might have the next one when I was 17 for me.

Well I do know that a lot of those guys went on to become the Faith lot... and no I wasn't trying to stir things. Just interested in anyone's opinion that was around at the time.
As MarkD77 said, it was a very exciting time for UK culture. Even though I was still a kid around that era, I still remember it very fondly. I remember buying The Face and other magazines of the time, and it all being completely alien and exciting.

I'd hardly put The Face and Boy's Own on the same level! One of them was a 'style bible' with fuck all readership written by wankers

Muzik Xpress (on the Boys Own label) was one of the best dance tracks ever, of all time, and ... in the world! too. So nyerr.

They still put out good tunes. Can't say the label put a foot wrong. I even liked the Bocca Juniors pop thing.

Underworld - Rez and Cowgirl. Probably two of the best tracks to appear on one 12", ever.

Raise was great - Substance not so...
I've always loved DSK - What would we do? Well until Dizzie Wanker or Wylie sampled it recently anyway...

We've definitely agreed that we like Wild Pitch. The rest is speculation.

You should see me when something Siemens related happens just before lunch.
"mr magee don't make me hungry, you wouldn't like me when i'm hungry".
No seriously though. I agree with Johnny he put it well that they place themselves above everyone else and deliver judgement. I mean I was on there quite a bit so it's not a snap decision. School bullies who can dish it out and not take it.

Have been reading about this in Private Eye. IT people are currently "fixing" the music industry as well. Yay.
