From 2003-2006, Purging Talon Executive Director, Matt G. Paradise, produced an Internet radio program called Heavy Metal Memories. As you could imagine, it was focused on the past: in this case, ’70s and ’80s metal. After a six-year hiatus, Magister Paradise is back on Radio Free Satan, this time with his co-host, Jason Andreasson, by the inclusion of their already popular horror commentary podcast, Terror Transmission — a show dedicated to classic horror from the silent era to the 1980s.
Kevin I. Slaughter is a vulgarian and elitist, half son of the South, half child of Mother England. He owns the 3rd largest private collection of vintage Super 8mm porn on the East Coast, plus an extensive library of adult paperbacks. He’s also been a staunch supporter of Purging Talon for most of its 16 years. On his blog, he recently writes…
Matt Paradise had a pretty big impact on me through his Purging Talon Publishing. I thought I had a blog that contained my appreciation for his work, but I can’t find it…
I think I picked up a copy of Poo Poo Magazine first, and it was possibly through Atomic Books or Quimby’s, but I would always get the rest direct from then on, and when I was running the Den of Iniquity mail-order company I was putting in wholesale orders from him. I have a copy of deSade somewhere, and then later on his Superhighway to Hell.
I know my first article in another ‘zine was published in Not Like Most, and now I can’t remember if he’s published other articles or if it was just smaller notices. I’m trying to build a list of articles and interviews I’ve done over the years, but I just have “Not Like Most” listed with no further details yet. Either way, he’s supported my work over the years, big time, and I’ve done my best to reciprocate whenever possible.
