Hey guys.  

I'm the co-president of a student organization at the University of Wisconsin called GRAMPS (Glorification Realization Appreciation of Metal and Prog Society). We recently created a fanzine called Pantheon that exists both in print and online versions. Our first issue is pretty low-key, but we do have some editorials, reviews, and an interview. The online version is at:

If you want a copy of the print version (or have any questions, comments), just contact us at [email protected]

We plan to put out the next issue in a month or so. We've gotten an interview with Cynic for it, so that's pretty exciting! Hope you guys enjoy it! 


Max

That's awesome that someone locally (for me) is doing this.  I'll be sending an e-mail about the print version.

Glorification Realization Appreciation? Are you trying to sound like you're a stereotypical stoned metal/prog fan?

haha!  Actually, the reason behind the name is that every student organization on our campus has a ridiculous/stupid acronym for their title.  It sort of an attempt to parody them.  We figured GRAMPS would be sufficiently dumb...but believe me, we're aware of it.

Looks intriguing at least. I'll be sure to check out the online version in more detail later on. Smile

Just skimmed through it. Somebody there apparently chose Fen's ''Malediction Fields'' over maudlin of the Well's ''Part The Second'' for album of the year, '09.

You're dead to me. Thumbs Down

Updates:

Interviews with CYNIC, WIND OF THE BLACK MOUNTAINS, Dave Murray (THE DESERTS OF TRAUN, ESTRADASPHERE, THOLUS, SCULPTURED).  

New Editorials



We're in the process of updating the site's look.  A friend of mine is helping me with personalizing the CSS so there can be tabs at the top of the page (reviews, interviews, editorials, etc).  That'll make navigation much easier.
