Along with staples like "Maximum Rock 'n' Roll" and R. Crumb's cartoons, you'll find all manner of pamphlets and publications, including such oddities as "Fresh Cow Pie" (published by a North Dakota tractor driver), "Apocalypse Playground" (a goth lit-mag), and the self-explanatory fanzine "Garlands for Judy." If you're overwhelmed by the breadth of periodical-worthy topics, seek refuge in the... more

The Scene You may be intimidated upon first walking in here if you're not secure in your indie cred: Comics and zines line the claustrophobia-inducing chartreuse walls while band flyers paper the doorway. A friendly smile from the heavily pierced staff and a quick glance at some titles, however, lets you know that anyone with freakishly obsessive interests is welcome. The... more

I couldn't find this place last time I was in New York as I COULDN'T REMEMBER ITS NAME! I looked in the back of "Maximum Rock N Roll" and found GG Allins brothers phone #. I called him and he told me the name and where it was!

This is practically the only store in NYC that is dedicated to selling nothing but to zines(homemade magazines). It is located in a small shop in the East Village only identifiable by a sign of an ear & an eye. The owner is a fountain of zine knowledge and can talk for hours about zines. The prices can range from $2-$10 depending on the type of zine you like (Gothic, Political, Music, etc)

Personally, I have a hard time perceiving the Village Voice as the alternative press nowadays. If I'm looking for voices outside the mainstream, See Hear is the preferred place to go. The closest you'll get to the mainstream here is the stoner mag "High Times" or the RE/Search books like "Modern Pagans." Aside from Reading Frenzy, a great 'zine store in Portland, Oregon, I don't think See Hear... more
