It's time for another dirty, black summer, and Revolver has just the issue for the season. Our new print edition features five diverse creative forces across its collectible covers: funk-metal weirdos Primus, blackened death satanists Behemoth, genre-bending solo artist Greg Puciato, NorCal hardcore upstarts Scowl and, of course, the one and only Glenn Danzig, looking back at 30 years of his masterful Danzig III: How the Gods Kill. There's plenty more for good beach-reading, too — from five rising bands you need to know, to a deep dive through Meshuggah's discography.
You can pre-order the issue now along with special limited-edition collector's bundles, featuring exclusive vinyl, art prints and more, at our shop.
