- BTW: in my last post about music, I made mention of a publication called
- The Fifth Path. This is a rather bizarre, but well put together music zine
- which is interested in various kinds of industrial, gothic, and alternative
- music, including a lot of music with pagan, magickal, or satanic themes.
- The zine is not pagan as such, but the editor seems to be sympathetic to
- pagan ideas - with his own misanthropic twist, though. The first two issues
- are sold out, but featured interviews with Foetus Inc., Death in June (Douglas
- P.), Robert Anton Wilson, Zeena La Vey, Rozz Williams, plus lots of reviews
- and articles, including one on Kodo (a kind of Japanese drum music). Issue
- three may still be around: it featured an interview with Boyd Rice (of Non),
- an interview with Tony Wakeford (of Sol Invictus), with Michael Moynihan
- (of Blood Axis), and with Feya Aswynn, a priestess of Asatru (Odinism) who
- has written a book (Leaves of Yggdrasil) and done some singing and rune
- chanting for Current 93. Also featured: articles on Carl Orff and Yukio
- Mishima. Issue four will feature the second half of the Tony Wakeford inter-
- view, plus interviews with the Swans, Crash Worship, The Electric Hellfire
- Club, Adam Parfrey, Thomas Lyttle, and articles on Hopi prophecies and
- Odinim
- oops! and Odinism in Heavy Metal (p. 1: interview with Johnny Hedlund of
- Unleashed), plus music reviews as per usual. Tower Records sometimes stocks
- this zine, but I wouldn't count on finding a copy by accident. You might be
- able to special order, and I think RRRecords carries it. If you are inter-
- ested in subscribing (no, I have no connection with the zine!), $20 will
- get you a four issue (2 year) subscription. The last issue was 64 pages
- long, standard magazine format: this is not a low budget fanzine. Some might
- not care for some of the advertisers, though, which include various groups
- and publications interested in satanism, Charles Manson, mass murders, and
- similar topics. Be that as it may, the zine is worth the money to those
- interested in the kinds of music this zine reviews, and the kinds of people
- it interviews. Oh! before I forget, the address is:
-
- The Fifth Path
- P.O. Box 1632
- Carmichael, CA 95609 - 1632
- U.S.A.
-
- According to the info in issue 3, subscriptions ($20) should be made in
- U.S. funds, payable to Robert Ward.
-
- Anyway, I thought I should make this info available, to anyone who wanted
- to know where I was getting my information on pagan groups.
