EspañolFLIPSIDE (FANZINE)
'Flipside' was a punk rock fanzine published in Los Angeles, California from 1977 - 2001.
As one of the first and longest running US punk rock fanzines, this publication extensively chronicled the world of independent and underground music during this era. Known for its highly opinionated cast of writers, ''Flipside'' evolved from cheaply printed to glossy cover. Their articles extended to coverage of the UFO phenomenon, drugs, and independent film.
For several years, the publishers also produced punk rock records under the Flipside label. Bands on its own label included Doggy Style, Bulimia Banquet, Anti-Scrunti Faction, Sluts for Hire, Popdefect, Paper Tulips, Sandy Duncan's Eye, and Babyland. Some of the most sought after of Flipside releases are the Flipside Video Fanzine series released in the early 1980s which were collections of performances of punk bands such as Black Flag, Agent Orange, TSOL, Social Distortion, etc. Flipside Records also released the first Beck recordings; a split 7" with the band Bean plus the full length CD Stereopathetic Soulmanure.
''Flipside'' fanzine put on a Burning Man-style festival, in California's Mojave Desert at a location known as Jawbone Canyon for several years during the mid 1990s. It was much smaller and more localized than the actual Burning Man Festivals and often featured bands that Flipside put out on their own label. Special guests included Nik Turner, of Hawkwind fame.
