NEW MORALITY ZINE I
So first things first! Who’s the creative mind behind New Morality Zine?! Have you ever played in any band besides doing the zine & label? Please introduce yourself to the Soulcraft readers!
was introduced to Nick Acosta via his zine / label New Morality and we chit chat in social media every now and then. He was kind enough to distribute the 2nd issue of Soulcraft in the States, too. New Morality is one of the most hard-working hardcore labels right now and Nick’s dedication to the scene is undeniable. Fanzines and independent labels are vital for the hardcore scene to prosper and thrive, and I am very happy that the year 2020 turned to be the year of the the zines’ regeneration for sure. We initially had a plan to do a live chat in Instagram with Nick but it fell down due to the time difference and busy schedules, so I threw him a bunch of questions that he was easy to reply to! Check the interview out and support the zine / DIY label culture!
Hey! My name is Nick. I am the creative mind behind New Morality Zine. This is my first real big push of doing a hardcore based fanzine or label. While in college I was in a short lived straight edge band in Seattle called Living In Ruins but nothing since then! Although this zine was born out of not being able to get a band off the ground when I moved to Chicago. It feels very special to me to interview a person that is also involved in the hardcore fanzine scene. That 2020 / quarantine hardcore zine revival gave me goosebumbs of happiness! What were your favorite hardcore publications in the year that we recently said goodbye to?
