UNRESTRAINED (CANADA) LAST ISSUE

First the end of METAL MANIACS now the end of UNRESTRAINED. It is with a heavy heart that Canadian extreme metal zine "UNRESTRAINED" have announced the illustrious metal zines very last issue. The primary reason for "UNRESTRAINED" closing camp was the death of it's chief editor and founder Adrian Bromley whom passed away to pneumonia in December of 2008. In this, the 21st century, everyone is upgrading from print media to internet as that transition is also to blame for UNRESTRAINED Magazines demise. I'm really pissed, I'm going to miss Adrian and all at UNRESTRAINED, all the best to them, hails, metal horns \m/, UNRESTRAINED was awesome, and I still have some copies.

FROM UNRESTRAINED: It is with great sadness that I announce that Unrestrained! magazine has come to an end.

As most of you know, Adrian Bromley passed away on December 7. Adrian was the publisher, coordinator, and co-editor of the magazine. The magazine was intertwined with Adrian to such an extent that it could not continue without his presence at the helm. It was agreed by Adrian’s friends and family that bringing the magazine to a close would be the most appropriate course of action. This is a view that I share.

Along with countless expressions of sympathy, I have received inquiries about the future of the magazine. We have made every effort to wrap up the magazine in a way that would honour Adrian’s life and vision. Here is what will happen:

Adrian passed away with the thirty-ninth issue about a week-and-a-half away from completion. Myself, along with copy editor Rob Hughes and layout artist Rex Zachary, decided to put the finishing touches on the issue so that the option would be on the table for this issue to be released. I would like to thank them for their hard work during this most difficult time. Outside of a different editorial (now a eulogy for Adrian, written by myself) and a few typographical corrections and layout tweaks, the issue is largely as Adrian last saw it. Adrian was very excited by this issue. His excitement is fully justified; it is a terrific issue and a suitable finale to a spectacular run.

Unrestrained! #39 will be released by Adrian’s friends and family as a tribute to him in PDF format
