Patriotic Voice Skin Zine: Update on Issue One - Will be hitting the streets in the next few weeks! -
Just to pass along some info - issue #1 of the zine is nearing completion, and should be printing in the next few weeks. I am aiming to have it out by May 1st AT LATEST. Hopefully I can have it out a little bit before that, even.
Here is a little preview and rundown of what to expect in the first…
Please check out the blog for info on my upcoming print zine! I keep gaining followers and having people like and re-blog posts on this blog, which is almost inactive. If you are interested in really showing support for the Oi! scene and learning about new releases, etc - show some support and follow the blog for Patriotic Voice Skin Zine. It should be out in the next few weeks as well. Read the original post for info on how to get a free copy!!
Things are just getting started here on the blog / news site for Patriotic Voice Skin Zine. Just to make things clear, this blog will ONLY have information on the zine itself, and how to order it. This is a print zine along the lines of the classic zines from the ’80s and ’90s.
Issue #1 is being worked on as you read this - and will be in print any day now. We are expecting to have ‘em in the street some time in April or AT LATEST in early May.
While there are perhaps hundreds of so-called “skinhead” blogs on Tumblr (and AT LEAST dozens…) at varying degrees of quality and amounts of idealistic delusion, there has been a total void in the American Oi! scene of an actual print skinhead fanzine. THAT is where Patriotic Voice comes in.
So, thanks for checking us out - and stay tuned to this blog for more info on how to get your copy of issue one when it is out! I am not 100% sure on the pricing yet, but I believe we will be able to sell them for $2 in person, $3 shipped in the US, $4 shipped in the rest of North America, and $5 shipped in the rest of the world. That’s right - anywhere in the world you will be able get one by mail for $5 or less via a PayPal shop we will have set up! And it should be out very soon.
While this zine is just beginning, we hope to become a fixture in the American and worldwide skinhead and Oi! scenes. We hope to see the real skins and bootboys nationwide and worldwide come together to TAKE BACK OUR SCENE!
Please take the time to add my new blog which is for news and updates on my upcoming PRINT zine! It will be cheap and can be shipped worldwide! It isn’t out yet, but if you have liked this blog’s content you will love the print magazine! Thanks for reading!
Please add my new Tumblr - which is for information and news regarding my upcoming PRINT skinhead zine - Patriotic Voice!
Again, this new Tumblr is NOT the zine itself - it will just contain info on how to purchase the upcoming print zine. It’s going to be good, and I would love it if you guys show me the same support there as you have for this blog!
The costs aren’t set yet, but I am thinking it will be no more than $2-3 shipped within the US, and no more than $5 or so international. So it will be affordable even on a working class budget. I bet some of you kids don’t even remember how cool it is to get stuff in the mail! So please check it out - and when it is out in the next 3 weeks or so, grab a copy!
And that is because, quite frankly, I have gotten a little bit tired of the Tumblr skinhead community and its many different factions, groups, and individuals attempting to be the skinhead police and constantly sending anonymous hate mail back and forth.
Shit is ridiculous.
The goal of this blog was to be one of the top skinhead blogs - but there are just so goddamn many it’s hard for any one zine to really be but just a drop in the ocean. And really, I have always preferred the oldschool print skin zines. And print fanzines in general.
So - my new project is just that. A PRINT skinhead fanzine with similar focus, style, and dedication to what you’d see here -but with more of a uniform set of articles and content by nature, as it is a magazine and not a Tumblr blog.
Thanks to EVERYONE for all the support I have gotten whilst doing WoS and I have met and talked to some great people through this blog. And I am not deleting this or even saying for certain that it’s done for good… but I strongly believe a return to print media is key for the survival of a strong Oi! scene.
As such, I have made a NEW Tumblr solely for information and promotion for the new zine… Patriotic Voice Skin Zine. Please check it out and add that blog for any and all updates and info!
gitarparaszt asked: Oi! are you bonehead, or tradskin?
There is more, and also less, to it than that. I am just a skinhead.
Anonymous asked: Oi is bullshit punk. Oi never had anything to do with true Skinhead culture and to suggest it does displays ignorance. I don't know what crap constitutes 'skinhead' in the States, but Trad Skin music is Ska/Reggae/Rocksteady/Soul. If folks wanna listen to crap punk then do so, but don't even HINT that shit 'music' has fuck-all to do with Skins. And as for Punk 'keeping Skinhead alive' or 'we wouldn't be skins without punk'... Utter BOLLOCKS. End of.
You are an idiot, and a coward for maintaining anonymity while stating such a claim. I don’t check this much so you probably sent this weeks ago and won’t see my response. But punk and Oi! were intimately related - always. Trad skin music is whatever trad skins want to listen to.
Anonymous asked: what kind of girls does a skinhead guy like you date?
Anonymous asked: what kind of girls are skinhead neo-nazi guys intrested in? and do they check your background of who you been with?
Maybe you should ask a fuckin’ neo Nazi.

Hahaha! This is a drawing someone did of my boy Davey — as he looks drunk and passed out on a couch… Which is quite a bit.
I took this from his Facebook, and he probably has no idea I am putting this up here, but it is too funny.
D’aww! Look at this little heartbreaker!
Hand on the hip, other in a fist… this li’l man’s got it sussed.
