QRD Archives

Welcome to the QRD Archives, QRD has been going since 1994 & though the future has always been shaky, it seems like it will never really die. It's sometimes interesting to see what some of the changes in people's points of view on things & what's important to their career if you read interviews with people who did three or four interviews over the course of ten years. Click here for an alphabetical listing of interviews & articles.

#7. This issue should've been a big break, but it wasn't. Two interviews with people who'd actually had videos on Mtv & stuff, but the print shop fucked up a bunch of copies so it ended up with the smallest print run of all. Zoe from Trance to the Sun is on the cover. Shortly after this issue my brother got me a new computer free somehow.

Issue 6, wow, two semi-known bands (lovesliescrushing & Spahn Ranch) again & the first in-depth lovesliescrushing interview I ever saw. This might be my favorite issue. The cover is a picture from when I went to the Grand Canyon when I was 18.

#5. This issue had three pages of photos & I realized xeroxed photos look pretty crappy. I like how the cover looks like a bunny & a face & more; it's actually a blurry image of a pieta. My computer lost the ability to save & retrieve data on this issue. the interviews were with Annabelle's Garden & Pineal Ventana.

Issue 4 & the Vague icon is on the cover even though he didn't have a name yet. I thought this issue was the big time because I actually interviewed two bands that were somewhat

Issue 2, the first one I thought would never come out & the last one I did before dropping out of school. Originally it was going to have two fake interviews & be the last issue, But then Martin Bowes agreed to do an interview & I did the one with Dr. Littleton for a paper I did on ufo's for my history class because an interview was required. Snailiens are an obscure failed action figure type toy. that's my dad on the cover.

The first issue, no number on the cover because i didn't know if another one would come. Boy this feels like forever ago. It was inspired by a lot of zines I didn't like & a few defunct ones I did & some a few friends did. I didn't have a computer & typed stuff on a friend's portable word processor. I didn't have much money & I couldn't afford a glue stick, so I glued the whole thing together with marshmellow fluff because i could buy that on my college food plan. The original copy fell apart now. The interviews were with Lycia & Super 31
