Metronome Magazine is a FREE little b/w monthly zine covering the northern New England music scene. You can find it at various music-related locales in the area. They apparently haven't discovered the internet yet, so we have no link for them, but that's cool - they're keeping it real with the quaint parochialism so prevalent to this particular locale. They probably keep themselves warm during the harsh New England winter nights with wood stoves, not gas, and Metronome Magazine is probably mass-produced on the same printing presses that they used for stuff by dudes like Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Paine:

"Singer-songwriter-guitarist Mark Mandeville wears his heart on his sleeve on his thirteen song collection of originals entitled Ballads For Stairs And Transparencies. Mostly deep and introspective, Mandeville pulls out little peaces of his soul on these songs that range from stark to colorful. Percussion embellishments pop up here and there, gluing rhythms together while Mandeville’s voice reeks of emotion and eerie solitude. Singers Kayla Daly and Michael Thibodeau contribute their vocal talents to the proceedings but for the most part Mandeville soars solo. Interesting tracks include Mr. Pony Man, Masquerade, The Impossible, and In Stereo (The Ocean), our favorite." (Douglas Sloan)
