Nosebleed
Nosebleed is a D.I.Y. zine from Dublin, Ireland.
Nosebleed is put together by Boz. It started in 1990 combining the influences of punk zines and underground comics with Boz‘es unique style of comics and illustrations. The zine features zine and record reviews, articles and interviews. The most recent editions have been of the A4 size with a colour cover.
After the 22nd issue of the zine, it has not appeared since but this is as Boz is currently involved in other projects but still plans on releasing another issue, thereby making Nosebleed the longest running active Irish zine. According to its own account of its history, Nosebleed “carved a path for itself which ridiculously outlived it's contemporaries.”
Over the years, the roster of interviewed bands has included The Cramps, Alice Donut, Therapy, Sonic Youth, Snuff, Nomeansno, Striknien DC, The Specials, Millions Of Dead Cops, Cuinas, Quicksand, Paranoid Visions, The Steam Pig, Chumbawamba, Tension and many others.
