Issue 131 – featuring an interview with Alice Kat. There’s a load of articles and reviews including: EMF, Jesus Jones, Anti-System, Laura Jane Grace & The Trauma Tropes, Heather Nova, The Cranberries and Thousand Yard Stare. Marv is back with another instalment of Now Then Gadgie and there’s a couple of movie reviews from Devin. Oh and of course some music reviews too. It’s another seriously packed edition!

Issue 132 – is the second collection of albums by years. Some have been published in issues of Lunchtime For The Wild Youth, but there are many new ones in here too. The likes of Blur, Carter USM, Face To Face, Oasis, Dinosaur Jr, Lagwagon and loads more! We’re looking at 1993 to 1995. Check out the full list on the issue page.

There are some back issues still available too, we only charge a set price for postage, so why not take advantage of that too and stock up on loads of zine reading!
Issue 133 is 90% complete too, that should be out in March. Cheers for the support!

Issue 130 – out now!
Issue 130 of Lights Go Out is released today!
After saying we’d slow down a bit this year we ended up putting 11 issues of the zine out… so technically we did put out slightly less issues that last year! The new issue features columns written for Lunchtime For The Wild Youth and more, a look at various albums released from 1985 to 1992…
Starring: Descendents, Europe, Bad Religion, Back To The Future OST, Dinosaur Jr, Jesus Jones, Kylie Minogue, Bobby Brown, The Wonder Stuff, Bel Biv Devoe, Thor, EMF, Pavement, Dannii Minogue & Juliana Hatfield.
Available from our store now. If you fancy a copy please do grab one here: https://www.lightsgoout.co.uk/?product=lights-go-out-issue-130
Back issues are also available if you fancy some additional zine reading too.
As we move into 2025, I can confirm that issue 131 is completed and with the printers now ready for release at some point in January. Lots of ideas are in the pot as well for issues, so as well as the “regular” issues, we’ll have a few more themed issues, or specials kicking about next year too.
As ever, cheers for supporting the zine and as long as people keep on buying it, then we’ll keep on putting it out…

Issue 128 – House!
Issue 128 of Lights Go Out is also released today.
I had an idea, I have lots of them… many are no good for the zine at all, but this one stuck… an issue of the zine based on just one word as a topic…. “House”. Mainly cause I realised how often this word was used in movies and also songs… but could a whole issue come out of this one word? Turns out it could with massive thanks to the wonderful contributors who got involved!
Starring: House (Movies 1-4), Digging Into The Archives: The Housemartins, Haunted Houses, The House Playlist, The Stooges, Hammer House Of Horror, House Movies, “Halves? Your House Or Mine”, House Songs and Bands
Available to order now: https://www.lightsgoout.co.uk/?product=lights-go-out-issue-128
