- Corrupted Morals. The Corrupted Morals were formed about 1986 in Palmdale, California and was one of the original 924 Gilman Street bands. They originally consisted of Rick (vocals), Dan (guitar), Ray (guitar), Roman (bass), and Jose (drums). Their first release was a 7", called the 'Chet' EP. The band later added Joel (bass - only for the 'Chet' 7") and Larry LaLonde (ex Possessed - joined after 'Chet'). Ray left at some point after the 'Chet' EP was released. Rick, Dan, Ray, Joel (substituting for Roman) and Jose recorded the 'Chet' EP in June of 1987, but wasn't released until January 1988 on Lookout! Records. It was the second Lookout! release. Later, they also released on Lookout! their 'Cheese It' LP. 'Cheese It' featured Rick, Roman, Jose, Dan, and Larry. They also produced a very limited record, 'Think About It' 7" on Very Small Records, VSR 01. Corrupted Morals were also on several compilations. Corrupted Morals broke up sometime in 1990. Larry Lalonde then went on to play in Primus. Latest track [newnoisemagazine.com/corrupted-morals-green-day-cover]!

ANNOYING GIRLZ ZINE
[shessoannoying.tumblr.com]
submissions open for new zine by & for annoying girls.
due march 31 2019 to [theannoyinggirlz@)gmail.com]
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: ANNOYING GIRLZ ZINE
- do something unladylike in public? annoying.
- call someone out for being racist/sexist? annoying.
- made a joke that a man would have gotten laughs for? annoying.
- dare to be anything but a docile young lady? sooo obnoxious.
- voice your needs? omg. why is she so annoying.
how many times has every woman been called ANNOYING in her life? how many young girls grow up being told ANNOYING is her main personality trait? why don’t we talk about this more? ANNOYING is a form of gender nonconformity that we are all punished for at some point.
what’s it’s like growing up as an Annoying Girl? what’s it like being an Annoying Woman in your job, in classrooms, in your relationship, in your head, in public? how does ANNOYING manifest at the intersection of race, class, culture, religion, ability, sexuality? what’s the funny, the ridiculous, the political, the angry, the devastating of ANNOYING?
let’s make chicken soup for the annoying soul. submissions open for art, photographs, screenshots, poetry, prose, fiction, memoir, essay to anyone who has ever been an annoying girl.
