Reviews
Outré, outlandish, funny, unnerving and odd
Lightspeed
Absolutely essential
Fortean Times
I’m running out of superlatives with which to praise Headpress
The DarkSide
This journal of freaky popular culture is inimitable
City Life
Intense, cool and enthusiastic… essential reading
Bizarre
An entirely healthy interest in violent death & deviant sex
i-D
Outrageous … our favourite grotesque magazine
Forum
The merely curious are advised to steer well clear
Rock Power
The top-dog, the main man and is unbeatable
The British Fantasy Society
Excellent
Film Threat
Quite filthy and nasty
Factsheet 5
Pushing the right buttons on the wrong people
Dazed and Confused
Increasingly slick, sick zine
Screw
Headpress remains one of the best, if not the best, publishing ventures we know of
Compulsion
Possibly the only totally essential periodical in print
Flesh & Blood
Genuinely thought provoking, intelligent analysis
Samhain
Particularly bizarre … disturbing and sometimes delightful
Time Out
The ultimate expression of the transgressive ethic
Speak Magazine
