Attack!!!! is a themed collection of creative writing, artwork and music (and if you're thinking of making something for us in another medium let us know).
Attack!!!! accepts submissions in any language providing an English translation is also provided
At the moment all issues of the zine are themed around responses to issue 5 (which was called "Call"). We're going to keep doing this until we've got through the lot.
Contributors can send pieces of writing (under 500 words for the paper zine), illustrations (black and white only for the paper zine), audio files or proposals for other formats to dotdashdash.dashdash@gmail.com or by post to:

If you submit something that can't appear in the zine it might be possible to accommodate it on the website. For example if you sent several brilliant illustrations, I'd pick the most brilliant for the zine and put the rest on the website, or if you sent something in colour or something like that. This is all assuming that it's accepted though, which is by no means certain, I am fairly picky.
If your work is accepted for inclusion in the zine you will get a credit, a link to your website from this one, you can be in Attack!!!!'s myspace top friends and you can send me flyers to insert with the zines if you want. You don't get paid but it's still pretty cool.
Attack!!!! magazine has been described as "revered" and "essential" by Dazed and Confused magazine and "highly recommended" and "thought-provoking" by Bypasszine and tracks from past CDs have been played on Huw Stephens' Radio One show and made the "best of 2007" edition of the Brierly Hill 90210 podcast
