Issue #XXX - A Network Of Friends vol. 5
Released January 2023 with an unknown print total (due to the number of participants).
The "A Network Of Friends" omnibus series was initially started by Steve of the excellent long running UK zine Ripping Thrash. Each omnibus compiles mini-issues of DIY zines together in one singular issue. They are done with the intent of spreading love of international hardcore punk and DIY values through co-promotion.
Volume 5 was compiled by us here at Negative Insight with the permission of Steve Ripping Thrash. Initially he was going to participate in the project, but ended up unable to. The zines that were able to participate include A Blast From The Past (UK), Bootlegs Of Filth (Australia), Crisispoint (UK), Gadgie (UK), Initonit (UK), Negative Insight (USA), and Vermynoze Putrida (Brazil).
The entire issue is up for viewing in several formats online here.
To anyone who would like a physical copy, we strongly encourage you to print one out of your own. For distros interested in distributing the issue, email us and we will provide you with a master copy free of charge that is print ready. The only thing we ask is that you sell it for a fair price, as we just want this to get out to as many people as affordably as possible.
