Touch and Go ad circa 1988 (from Chemical Imbalance #6)

B SIDE #20 1/2

Sydney, 1987
12 Pages, photocopied

Features an extensive Big Black interview and written piece from Steve Albini (also in Forced Exposure). The purpose of this fanzine was to promote the Australian tour.

From Steve Albini piece:

“I don’t give two splats of an old negro junkie’s vomit for your politico-philosophical treatises, kiddies. I like noise. I like big-ass vicious noise that makes my head spin. I wanna feel it whipping through me like a fucking jolt. We’re so dilapidated and crushed by our pathetic existence we need it like a fix.”
