The Cut and Paste Chronicles, part one
The Cut and Paste Chronicles is essentially a collection of interviews from the 1990s music fanzine The Weedbus. It is also a behind-the-scenes story of how the fanzine came to be written and produced in south Belfast and how it survived for five years and thirteen issues. Part one selects the best interviews from the first ten issues, published between 1992 and 1995. The zine sought to tell the stories of the bands we liked best, and initially it was pitched somewhere between the popular music press of the time and the revived zine culture, until it gradually drifted towards styles and tastes of its own. It was a flip side to Britpop, an antidote. It started out of post-university boredom and grew into an international mail order business with readers in the US, Canada, Greece, Germany, France, Spain, Australia, to name just a few.
The first part of The Cut and Paste Chronicles has interviews with Martin Carr (Boo Radleys), Steve Mack (That Petrol Emotion), Thom Yorke (Radiohead), Dan Higgs (Lungfish), Will Oldham, Tim Wheeler (Ash), Stephen Malkmus (Pavement), Steve Shelley (Sonic Youth), Sebadoh, Georgia Hubley (Yo La Tengo), Bob Mould, Laetita Sadier & Tim Gane (Stereolab), Dave Boulter (Tindersticks), Alice Nutter (Chumbawamba), and many others.
