The F666 zine made its debut on September 25th, 2011 at the ‘Dreams Were Made For Mortals 2′ group art show at Brooklyn’s Saint Vitus Bar. The Fall 2011 zine is 36 pages (6×6=three 6) chronicling NYC photographer Suren Karapetyan’s coverage of the explosive New York metal scene. CVLT Nation got our very own copy, and I can say first hand that it is a must-have for metalheads. It’s beautifully printed and full of Karapetyan’s epic photos, taken at shows he’s shot over the last 2 years. Iconic shots of Immolation, Krallice, Mutant Supremacy, Mayhem and more fill its’ pages, playing everywhere from stadiums to record shops, but I think my favorite is the Cannibal Corpse pit shot on the inside cover. He has also featured contributions by Justin Elm and Justina Villanueva, and an interview with Karlynn Holland. Overall, he has created a zine that will memorialize this time in New York and Brooklyn metal. I have a feeling that this is one of those “documenting history without knowing it” moments, and that Issue 1 of the f666 zine is something that will be a treasured part of your collection in the years to come. There are only 100 issues available, and since I am a little late on this review, there are probably way less than that left. You can pick them up either locally at Generation Records in New York City and Desert Island in Brooklyn, or if they’re out or you’re not local you can get it direct from the f666 store for $6.66. OR…I can send you the free giveaway copy Karapetyan sent us at CVLT Nation (not my copy!), just email us at contact@cvltnation.com with your shipping address and I’ll put you in the draw! Any purchases on the CVLT Store today will also be eligible for the giveaway (until 12PM PT 11/23/11). After the jump, check out our photos of the f666 zine…
