The History of Loose Screws


Loose Screws started off with 4 guys back in May 1996, the first issue came out in the June of that year.  But in June of the same year we had 2 guys drop out because they just didn't want to write any articles.  At first the zine wastmp1.jpg (5928 bytes) just going to be half rap and half punk but since two guys had had dropped out it was decided to just have a punk zine.   Then in June Gunther8544 and Curmudgy pretty much took it from there.  Our first issue got good feedback.  Everone that checked it out really liked it.   There were only 30 issues made of that first issue and they're hard to find because well it's out of print now.  The zine was just a joke at first but then it took off after the first issue.  The 2nd issue came out in August 1996 and we added 2 new members to our zine, Mr. Biggers and John A.  That was how our zine Loose Screws took off.  Today we have 6 main members all together.  Throughout the year people add articles to our zine.  The 2 others that joined us are Madame Night and Natas.  They came in issues 15 and 16.   You can find the Member Pictures at the Photo Album We got the webpage started about issue 17 thanks to a very considerate webmistress*  Also be sure to sign the guestbook.  You can get in touch with the folks of Loose Screws at loosescrewsmag@hotmail.com
