Just Glittering and Idwal Fisher were two collaborative noise zines produced by Mark Wharton, featuring work by the genre’s finest exponents and fans. The first issues of Just Glittering appeared in the late 1990s, and the two zines went on to document a fertile decade of creative noise-making. Back then, you couldn’t walk past a pub in Leeds without hearing windows rattled by a passing Japanese noise artist or effects pedals looped into submission, whilst meat thermometers regularly disappeared into places where no self-respecting meat thermometer would ever wish to go. Grotty rooms above pubs in England saw wild, ear-shattering performances from the likes of Filthy Turd, Smell & Quim and The New Blockaders. Labels put out cassettes tied to sponges, five-inch singles had 500 tracks on them, LPs came in steel boxes, and gigs sank. A lot happened, and these zines documented it in all its messy glory.
Here, you will find reviews of those gigs and releases from that period, interviews, tour diaries, charity shop record reviews and word searches in German, culminating in the 2007 four-day New York No Fun Fest.
All issues of Just Glittering and Idwal Fisher are reprinted in this collection.
