Download 29 issues of the legendary punk zine Slash

Punk archivist Ryan Richardson has collected 29 issues of the newsprint zine, and he’s now uploaded the scans to his new website Circulation Zero.

Slash was based in LA and ran from 1977 to 1980. The large-format tabloid was published by Steve Samiof and Melanie Nissen, and it counted notorious writers such as Claude “Kickboy” Bessy, Richard Meltzer and Chris D among its contributors.

While playing a vital role in supporting the local underound punk scene, Slash also featured the likes of Johnny Rotten, Debbie Harry, David Byrne, The Cramps and Dave Vanian of The Damned on the cover.
