Noise Receptor Journal continues the same, high quality path of its predecessor, Spectrum Magazine, and ups the ante. Outstanding coverage of the true underground dark ambient/death industrial/industrial scene.

A welcome return of underground yet pro-printed magazines in the absence of greats such as Spectrum, Degenerate, Descent, Bannanfish, Judas Kiss, Denshi Zatsuon, ND, Scraps of Paper and early issues of Resound and catalogs from RRR, Artware, SFCR, etc. All print is welcome in this era of online corruption. Keep up the important work.

Noise Receptor zines… epic stuff in handy format. I enjoy with author’s style, he artfully penetrates deep into music and knows the history… if you miss the old times when everyone feels informational hunger about good music, you know how it feels to get a nice zine in hands. Check it.
