About this Item

A later issue of this white nationalist music magazine that was published from 1994-2007. A total of 27 issues were published. Established in 1994 by Canadian skinhead George Burdi (who edited the magazine under the pseudonym George Eric Hawthorne), the magazine was affiliated with Burdi s record label, Resistance Records, and band RaHoWa (Racial Holy War). Primarily targeted at the white power skinhead culture, early issues profiled overtly racialist punk, Oi! and metal bands while advertising Resistance Records substantial catalog of CDs and apparel. The magazine s circulation increased from 5,000-13,000 copies of each issue - virtually unheard of for a white racialist publication - although circulation statistics were no longer published after issue 4. Defunct for nearly two years following Burdi s legal battles and his public renunciation of racism, it was revived by William Pierce of the National Alliance in 1999 and lasted under the editorship of Erich Gliebe until 2007. The magazine remained musically oriented, although it expanded its coverage to rockabilly, country, folk and other less aggressive genres, but it also began focusing on various aspects of white history and culture and included interviews with and profiles of athletes, servicemen, teachers, entrepreneurs, political prisoners, etc. Women also became more prominently featured - especially on the latter issues covers - and issue 10 included a new centerfold section called "Proud Aryan Women," which lasted until the magazine s demise. This issue features interviews with Saga of Symphony of Sorrow (pictured on the cover), Archivum, Konkwista 88, Aryan Nations attorney Edgar Steele, a white nationalist tattoo artist named Tracy, Attack, Herrenvolk, and Dying Breed; profile of a white nationalist grappling champion, an article on men of the Alamo, a reprint of George Lincoln Rockwell's "The Fable of the Ducks and the Hens," and William Pierce's article on "The Case of Hendrik Mobus"; other content includes an editorial, news & views, book and movie reviews, letters to the editor, Proud Aryan Women centerfold, shows reviews, and more. Stapled, glossy wrappers (11" x 8 ½"), 64 p., heavily illustrated. Light wear, very good.
