Hello, dear colleagues!

Just having finished reading the last magazine, the hustle and bustle regarding Psychomania already goes on cheerfully. After having raised the page number of every edition each time, now for a change we like to come up with another idea:

With the faithful motto: "The spring brings many new things" we also go new ways with the Psychomania No. 6. For the first time and from now on the Psychomania-Fanzine will be issued in 2 separate language German & English editions. We will continue having 2000 magazines in German, in usual quality, as well as 2000 magazines translated into English.

PSYCHOMANIA…

… is the bundled and printed compression of disquietingly activity and restlessness. Created by the loss of inhibitions and the fanatic faith in "the dark side of rock ‘n roll" PSYCHOMANIA aspires to become an indispensable reading and a constant companion of every PSYCHOBILLYS, PUNKABILLYS and ROCKABILLYS!

The booklet focuses on music with a PSYCHOBILLY – PUNKABILLY – ROCKABILLY – background and it is framed with reports around the scene… the whole without net and double bottom.

“PSYCHOMANIA”, a same titled CD-compilation which appear with every issue, act as the lynchpin for the content. Since 2004 the collection exists (under the name GRAVEYARD HOP) and it is very popular all over the scene. In fact, it cavort gaggles of famous bands and upcoming stars of the Psychobilly-scene who were recruited from all over the world for this sampler.

In the course of the development of the first PSYCHOMANIA fanzine and a new volume of the "PSYCHOMANIA" Compilation we are searching for suitable bands, artists, advertising partners, connoisseurs…

YOU appear to us as somebody who wants to join our project. We would be glad if we inspire YOU to work with us. YOU will be a sponsor and you will get a prestigious place in the PSYCOMANIA hall of fame. In fact you will become immortal.

For a quite small financial support (prices see below) your Song will be bannered on the mentioned compilation. Furthermore you will find corresponding interviews, reports and pictorial material in the magazine. If YOU decide for a coloured picture announcement, you make us very happy and you support our plan to create a really interesting lecture for the psycho scene.

But what’s about a first-class reporting without stylish layout and Artwork?!

We shrank neither costs nor troubles and placed our requirements condemned highly. According to the requirements we offer a stylish – appropriate Creation, without purging into ridiculous plates. Suitable motives, good colour selection, everything link themselves affectionately – language and picture are arranged in a way to a perfect unit and a unique style.

The “Zine” appears in the noble 4-color-print, in A5 format on 80 sides, half a year – always to Spring and Winter. The reasonable price of € 6,66 let this booklet become an obligation reading stuff for the scene.

A competent editor ship-team which distinguished itself several times by scene presence for many years, music understanding and experience will oversee the whole production. Not in vain the responsible persons made themselves a name by countless record publications, cover, flyer and t-shirt creations.
