Back in the 20th Century, ümlaut was a xeroxed fanzine that existed from 1992-95. Despite limited distribution, loyal readers ranged from coast to coast and included Rock Stars of various credibility, including Neurosis, Sonic Youth, Melvins, and Metallica. To quote The Cramps: “I dig that goddam Rock ‘N Roll.. The kind of stuff that don’t save souls.”

A Lament
Man, my old Rock Heroes are falling on a regular basis these days. This morning came the news that Guitar God Gary Moore passed away. Remember when Y&T would cover the Moore song 'You Kiss Me Sweetly' (from his 1979 solo album G-Force) in their 1982 local live sets? Me too.
Rest In Peace... and cue my favorite Thin Lizzy song co-written by Moore.
