The word “fanzine” is a portmanteau of “fan” and “magazine.” So when you squish those two separate words together what you’re left with is an unofficial magazine made by fans. Go figure. London-based four-piece Fanzine must love irony. Fresh faces on the music scene, they are currently on tour with Yuck and Unknown Mortal Orchestra. Though they’ve only released four tracks to date, they have a scuzzy but honest sound that’s difficult not to treasure. They harness a sort of nostalgia that many of us associate with the ‘90s. This is beautiful song-writing and real musical talent. They offer a free download of their EP with a digital download of their very own fanzine. Check ‘em out.
