Introduction
I have cherished my scrapbook of Madness newspaper cuttings, which I have kept for over four decades. This Madzine holds precious memories that I collected during the 80s, reminding me of the joys and challenges of that era. It’s incredible to see how much has changed since then, but this scrapbook is a testament to the value of preserving history and memories.
Why did I choose the scrapbook concept? You might ask. If you own the “Chocolate Pudding” and “Chocolate Egg” editions, you’ll notice that they feature replicas of specific pages from my scrapbooks. Essentially, you have a backstage pass to view elements of my passion for documenting my childhood love of Madness. I would cut and stick on little pieces of A4 paper photographs of Madness or any little news cutting from newspapers and music magazines around forty years ago.
Extensive effort has gone into enhancing the images and articles and carefully crafting the pieces to impersonate the scrapbook page designs and intent – I was thankful to have the ability to relive my footsteps from so long ago, even in digital form. So now sit back and enjoy the novelty and fascination that is Madness.
Madzine magazine is a semi-professional and non-official publication for Madness and music fans. For those who love Madness, there is an opportunity for a new generation to experience the charm of a "Fanzine". Although the original fans from the 80s may be content with their past, this Madzine has a unique look, feel, and character that distinguishes it from other publications. Within its pages, readers can delve into the past with one-of-a-kind articles, in-depth research from the Madness archives, and exclusive never-before-seen photography designed to introduce all fans to a new world of Madness.
It's been several years since any such issue of a Madness zine landed on anyone's doorstep. Sure, you can get up to the minute Madness news online, but there's nothing like sitting down with a good zine and giving yourself a break from a screen - even better, you now own a physical piece of Madness history. So join our vibrant community of Madness enthusiasts and collectors from all over the world!
