Unsound, Volume 2, #3/4

Unsound magazine was published from 1983-1987. Before the inception of the internet and on the brink of the desktop publishing revolution, Unsound created a forum for cutting edge musicians and artists to connect. Inspired by OP magazine from Olympia, Washington and a reaction against the narrow mindedness of Re/Search, Unsound attempted to create an open forum, within the pages bands, artists and writers could post profiles, publish articles, interviews and reviews. Each featured some of the first coverage of some of the best bands of the period including: Sonic Youth, Swans, Test Department, Hunting Lodge, Negativland, Chris & Cosey, Borbetomagus, The Haters, Problemist, and many more. The pages of Unsound are filled with uniques creativity and an obvious relish for the weird. This book gives us the complete Unsound, all the issues are reproduced in their original form.
