Same Teens

XOX is a Manchester based monthly-ish based fanzine that is primarily the work of three people who have, in less than a year, managed to create a publication with over 6000 readers per month and contributors from as far afield as Tokyo and LA. Originally done as a weekly post in the blog of their myspace in Summer 2007, what would become known as XOX, was started by a bunch of teenagers who wanted to try their hand at journalism, publishing and design after setting themselves up as gig promoters, starting their own club night and gaining a reputation as in demand DJs after playing for the likes of Cajun Dance Party and Iggy and The Stooges. Erol Alkan says XOX is one of his favourite reads and we've had favourable comments from design legend Peter Saville and best selling author Howard Marks but, hey, have a read and judge for yourself - we are always open to ideas and welcome new contributors so get in touch. .
