Gothic 'zines

[Raven]

I purchase Gothic Beauty & Unscene (which seem to be the forerunners of Dark Music & culture)...

Anyone got any other recommendations?

I apologize for being a little off topic, but where do you get that magazine that you read?

To do some shameless self promotion, I write for this one it's also in my sig line.

I love Gothic Beauty. I have never seen Unscene.

[DarkVampire]

None of the stores over here in GR have anything good like that.

It's really hard to find Gothic Beauty here. Sometimes, I find it in Barnes and Noble or even Hot topic. But they don't always have them.

Hot Topic doesn't carry any mags where I am at.

For the non-fashion related side of things

Dark Realms

The good oldschool magazines Propaganda and Permission are both dead. (well permission is still alive but its nothing to do with goth now ugh)

I cant seem to figure out if Metropolis and Cleopatra still put out their paper-catalogs which i think of as "magazines" they stop sending them to me years ago and i dont see anything about them on the websites.

If you're looking for images & style ideas more than articles, the Japanese mags can't be beat... like Gothic & Lolita Bible & Kera Maniax. You can get them through J-List (hit the link & run a search on "gothic") The text is all in Nihongo of course, but a lot of the style & makeup pieces have step-by-step photo directions that are very easy to follow. "Bible" even includes an actual sewing pattern in each issue.

J-List also has groovy stuff like the uncut Japanese release of Kill Bill, a million Pocky flavors, and all the limited-release Kit Kats that Nestle doesn't market here. Be warned, they also carry a lot of J-porn stuff which tends to turn up randomly regardless of what product category you're actually looking at- if you're at work or whatever, go to their J-Box site instead. Same stuff as J-List but without the adult products.
