Fourth issue of Silent Command, the newest zine by Mike Appelstein (ex-Writer's Block and Caught In Flux). Released September 2023. Includes the following:
- A trip to Map Ref. 41N 93W in Iowa, and an interview with Wire's Graham Lewis about his inspiration for Wire's namesake song
- An incomplete history of Game Theory's final album, Supercalifragile, featuring interviews with contributors Dan Vallor and Stephane Schuck
- Interviews with Colleen Green, Lisa/Liza and Optic Sink
- Four of my favorite postpunk compilations, and a reproduction of an old Rough Trade press release for Wanna Buy A Bridge?
32 pp, digest size. The cover image is the mashup of Young Marble Giants' Colossal Youth and Testcard EP I've wanted to do for years, but which technology has only now made possible.
