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. This 21st Century version of ümlaut has been ranting since 2004 and is also the co-author of the book Murder In The Front Row.

Beat The Heat
Just in time for Summer, Umlaut friend and former law enforcement officer Karen offered a tip to beat the heat if you're wearing a KEVLAR bulletproof vest:
The night before you're due to slave in the hot sun, put your vest in the freezer. KEVLAR will retain the cold for a decent amount of time.
When you're ready to venture out into the mean streets of Summer, your KEVLAR will protect you from bullets, shivs, AND (at least for awhile) the heat.
Have a GREAT Summer!
"...'Cause Summer's here and the time is right for fighting in the streets."
