I guess i just don't see the "scene police" clique you are talking about. Shit they still review/publish interviews with horrible stadium crust/pop punk etc.....i think they try to keep it fairly well rounded as far as different scenes/subgenres....hahah honestly thats probably the only thing i would complain about is that i still have to read about stuff like Appalachian Terror Unit.....but hey I can deal.

again it doesn't have much to do with the zine itself (certainly not in regards to the reviews).  i would get into more specifics but i don't need to give those people more reasons to hate me.

Well, you do get sworn in at MRR to police the scene.  Shitworkers get badges and stuff. 
YOU FUCKING PHILISTINE.

Appalachian Terror Unit

Bullseye. You pulled a real crust nugget out of the crust hamper. That said, they are from WV which earns them mega-points.

Razorcake's still kickin' and people definitely still buy it in print. For the most part, they back almost all Termbo-approved stuff and they review everything they receive, so it's worth hitting up.

Razorcake HQ has separate sponge racks affixed to their kitchen sink for multiple sponges that each have a specific use [dishes, glasses, pots/pans, hands, etc].  That level of efficiency/organization carries through the rest of the spot as well.  Daunting.

That surpasses even the almost corporate-like tidiness of the MRR HQ when Tim was running it. I remember being shocked at how...office-like it was.

Zines were his business and business was good.

His use of a stopwatch to Taylorize the green-duct-taping process created an environment of efficiency and accountability that allowed for profit maximization and brand garmonbozination.

You can contribute to MRR. You don't need some bullshit angle or notoriety. You can get reviewed. You don't need PR money. Every issue comes out punctually (at least to my knowledge). As stated, in 2017 that's really, really impressive.

The V Brothers have demonstrated on Termbo that they favor racism, sexism, and homophobia. Now they are all bent out of shape because MRR similarly doesn't put up with that shit.  Look, MRR not tolerating your vile bile doesn't make them "scene police" rather they are just people... or punks... or people punks. You creeps on the other hand are peephole punks.

Did Uranium Orchard got slammed in MRR or something? You need to put down the haterade and get right. MRR rules, [(V) Brother(s) Uranium drool(s)].

I know alotta unoriginal simps nowadays are aping 82 HC, 77 punk, 94 pop punk, proto-punk, post-punk, goth and glam thinking life is a blast when they're living in the past, but reviving dated, decades old MRR hate is just plain lame. Don't be a lame stain.

Save it. Dude posts his stupid inside jokes here that only he understands and then hides his ugly mug behind his fake tough guy termbo personality. Meanwhile he's probably some ugly pep squeak that hasn't had sexual contact with a man or woman under 200 lbs in years. Why else else would he be so Aggro (hint hint it's not for the keks).

And this loser is the only one talking about racist ass bands and posting pics and shit about them. You may be a try hard wannabe vedi, but take solace in that one day you'll grow out of that ... whilst aggro is stuck on his final pathetic Pokémon form and will likely die this way
