The grooviest issue ever is here! Well, there's nothing -delic about it, just lots of words and pictures about people like Rushmore actress Sara Tanaka; bands like Ganger, Hood, DJ Disk (Invisbl Skratch Piklz),The Aislers Set (in Japan), Sweep the Leg Johnny (in their van), Enemymine, Mogwai, Mountain Goats, Phunckateck, and Armatron; countries like Vietnam and Taiwan; and sports like Wiffle Ball. And of course there is the expected humongous reviews section.
