Destroy All Monsters Book....


Primary Information Publishing just released a completed book version of the Destroy All Monsters magazines a few months ago, and i finally got my hands on one this past week! it contains all 6 issues released between 1976-1978 as well as the incomplete 7th issue which was never released. as long as i've known about the Destroy All Monsters projects i have been obsessed with their work. i love the idea of a band that organically flows between audio and visual creation. although Niagara is probably the most well known and prolific artist from the group today, all the members of the band hand their hands in the making of these magazines. the result is a truly unique and wild creation that not only spans many styles and genres but was also years ahead of its' time. here are some shots of a bunch of my favorite spreads, but seriously, every page is a jaw-dropper....
























i have to say, they did an excellent job pulling together a beautiful finished product that still feels like a hand-made zine! this book is 270 pages that are mostly one color printed on various colored papers with some full color printed pages sprinkled within. you can pick up a copy directly from the publisher, which i highly recommend....
