It is never too early to get excited for Halloween. Like we always say, at HAZMAT it is HALLOWEEN all year round. And what better way to get fired up like a Jack O Lantern than with a 7" split from ACID WITCH and NUNSLAUGHTER! SPOOKY is an eerily creepy tribute to the old Warren publishing magazines, and a must listen for all lovers of the lore and gore. Just the packaging and album art alone is worth obtaining. However, supplies are limited so you best scrape the faces of the interweb to unearth a copy for yourself. Good luck and godspeed knuckleheads! Today HAZMAT is in deep thought. Have you ever been stuck between a rock and a hard place and wished there was song that wholeheartedly expressed your frustration? What could be more fitting than some vicious cuts from the French Canadian introspective headbangers called - OBLIVEON. Opening verse: "Incorporeal magnets pulling me from every side Obnubilation tries to throw me into its vortex Psychic whirl of thoughts feeding the storm inside Threshold of madness, situation getting complex..." Gotta love those lyrics. Talk about a severe decision making process. What are some of the hardest day to day decisions you have to make on a daily basis? Here's an ear bleeding interview we did with Joel Grind from issue 4. I hope your screen is big enough to read it. Enjoy!
Another GORious evening at the Plaza hosted by SPLATTER CINEMA. Smear on that camo paint, pump up those muscles and join HAZMAT with Arnold Schwarzenegger for the ultimate story of 1980's survival as the worlds ultimate warrior, goes head to head with the most deadly killer in the universe. PREDATOR! The hunt begins @ 9:30PM For more info go to: http://plazaatlanta.com/new_website2/predator-r/ Ahoy matey! Have ye ever been ditched by your friends because for whatever reason they did not like you? Perhaps they felt ye was hoggin' all the rum! What if they left you stranded in the middle of the ocean on a desert island, or worse, sitting atop a bobbing maritime buoy? How long do you think you could survive? The famous pirate Edward Englund, after being marooned along with a few of his companions managed to survive 4 months before constructing a small boat and sailing 932 miles across the Indian ocean to St. Augstines Bay in Madagascar. Marooning was a popular method of punishment amongst pirates and mutineers in the buccaneering days of tall ships, treasure maps and giant casks of ale. In so many words getting marooned generally meant you were the least popular amongst your crew of surly swashbucklers who felt it was in their best interest to discard you from their marauding vessel onto a small island or a sandbar at low tide. With a sarcastic farewell they would cast off and leave you confounded with nothing but inadequate provisions and your own thoughts to keep you company while you pass the time basking alone amidst the vast unbroken blue. If you were left on a desert island what is one thing you would take to ensure your survival and sanity? Which issue of HAZMAT would you take with you? HEre are some images of people who have been marronedSo you like THRASH METAL? That must mean you have a strange affinity for toxic waste and radioactive mutation. The Cuyahoga River was once so contaminated with toxic sludge that it was deemed a fire hazard. In a Time magazine article it was also said that the Cuyahoga river "oozes rather than flows" and a person "does not drown but decays". Definitely not your ideal route to plan a college float trip. On June 22, 1969 one of the many steel mills situated along the shores of the Cuyahoga was apparently routinely dumping molten slag into the river-way when all of the sudden the goopy currents ignited into a scene reminiscent of Dantes Inferno. It was not the first time the Cuyahoga had erupted into fiery indigestion but it was the first time it caught national attention. The Cuyahoga blaze helped "spark" the Clean Water act. Have you ever dumped hazardous contaminants into a natural waterway? Below is a look at some truly toxic imagery |
