culture and lifestyle magazine at social network TheAlternativeCommunity.com. Re-launching in June 2012. SinZine aims to embrace all aspects of the alternative; catering to alt. music fans, fringe fashionistas, fetishists and freaks beyond the bounds of categorizations. Interviews profile both living legends and rising stars from the realms of music, film, fashion, publishing and performing arts,
and the zine’s lifestyle pages - looking at kink, body modification, nightlife and more - offer an angle for the curious first-timers and scene veterans alike. Columns, commentary and opinion-based content meanwhile ranges from the irreverent and edgy, to articles seeking insight into the evolution of the alternative and issues with the scene, reflecting the diversity of the writers behind the zine. Truly ‘by the alternative, for the alternative’, SinZine is created by core team comprised of an of old-skool print fanzine editors, burlesque belles, alt models, musicians and club promoters, all immersed in alternative culture and able to write what they know best. Most crucially though, SinZine seeks to be reader-driven, and shaped by the suggestions and submissions of Alternative Community members. ‘Featured Member’ and ‘Soapbox’ sections - where anyone can take the spotlight - are just a couple regulars to which site users input is central.
