Lamb Of Godin Randy Blythelta sekä Testamentin Alex Skolnickilta oma printtilehti

Yhdysvaltalaisen metalliyhtye Lamb Of Godin vokalisti Randy Blythe on aloittanut yhdessä Testamentin Alex Skolnickin kanssa uuden printtilehden nimeltä ”Unbuild”. Lehti tulee keskittymään suurelta osin kulttuuriin ja ensimmäinen osa lehdestä julkaistaan huhtikuun 26. päivä. Voit lukea lehteä mukana tekemässä olevan Tom Bejgrowiczin mietteitä lehdestä tästä:

“While the three of us are bonded by music, that’s just the tip of the iceberg for who we are as people. Just as Alex and Randy have inspired so many, they’re equally inspired and motivated by a unique variety of people, places and things. It’s those very inspirations that make them who they are, their music sound like it does and their words ring true for so many. Unbuilt gives the three of us a platform to share those influences with whomever will listen.”

”The continued relevance of the printed word and resurgence of brick and mortar bookstores is proof of an undying affection for pre-digital age information processing,” observes Skolnick. Blythe agrees, declaring that ”the very nature of most modern media renders it intangible — hence, easily discarded with a click of a button and immediately forgotten.” In sharp contrast to the digital trend, he points out that ”Unbuilt stands among a growing number of small, well-designed print magazines as an object of artistic permanence. I’m excited to be involved with a project that kicks against the culture of disposable thought and art.”

Randy Blythe on kommentoinut tulevaa lehteä seuraavasti:

”As a professional musician, I’ve traveled the world using the platform my band provides for artistic expression via my lyrics and voice. But for me, a four-and-a-half-minute heavy metal song doesn’t have the space to convey some of the more complex points I wish to make, nor does it allow me to express myself visually. As a writer and photographer, Unbuilt supplies a well-designed outlet for those other (and equally important) aspects of my creative life.”

Alex Skolnick on puolestaan kommentoinut lehteä seuraavasti:

”Having spent untold hours of my youth locked away with a guitar and some favorite records, ’writer’ wasn’t a description I imagined for myself early on. Years later, however, I found a written voice, along with the discovery that writing can be every bit as expressively satisfying as music.”
