Without an avalanche of Tumblr accounts offering endless information on what your favourite band is wearing, Soundcloud recommendations about who to listen to next, or Twitter documenting your most-loved guitar player\u2019s childhood fear, publications such as the pioneering DIY zine Sniffin\u2019 Glue and groupie-focused Star found their way into the eager hands of music fans around the world. To celebrate a simpler time, here is our rundown of the five most iconic underground zines you might not have heard of, and where you can read them.Starting off this list with the OG of all zines, Sniffin\u2019 Glue was the first publication to chronicle punk from an insider\u2019s point of view. Created in the UK in 1976, right after editor Mark Perry (who was a bank clerk at the time) watched a Ramones concert, Sniffin\u2019 Glue\u2019s haphazard DIY style, with felt-tip titles, shabby grammar, swear words and informal writing paved the way for the many punk zines that followed. Submitting to the movement\u2019s idea of creating your own culture and rejecting the old, it did not subscribe to any traditional forms of publishing, and in fact was closed down after only 14 issues due to fear of becoming incorporated into the mainstream music press. Unfortunately, it is not catalogued online \u2013 but if you\u2019re London-based, you can check out the full archive at the London College of Communication\u2019s zine library.Considered scandalous at the time, 1973\u2019s LA-based Star magazine was aimed at teenage girls and chronicled the lives of the decade\u2019s most iconic groupies, from Sable Starr to the hyper-controversial Sunset Strip \u201cbaby groupies\u201d. With a manifesto that could almost be called feminist, the first issue opened riddled with angry letters from teachers and parents \u2013 one of them surprised the magazine \u201cdidn\u2019t come wrapped in plain brown paper\u201d as a porn magazine would \u2013 to which the editorial team answered: \u201cHow about letting Arkansas\u2019 girls decide about Star?\u201d It even featured a commentator that could\u2019ve come straight from 2016, who stated that men like him don\u2019t like this \u201cWomen\u2019s Lib baloney\u201d that the magazine advocates. Referring to their readers as Foxy Ladies (also a name used for baby groupies), Star never undermined their pheromone-ridden teen readers, and featured plenty of pictures of a young Mick Jagger, alongside comic strips of fantasy scenarios, for example where a fan dresses up as glam rock icon Marc Bolan to get backstage. With five printed issues painstakingly collected and digitalized, you can access the whole archive here."},{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"2016","item":"https:\/\/www.radiotime.it\/2016\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"05","item":"https:\/\/www.radiotime.it\/2016\/\/05\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"23","item":"https:\/\/www.radiotime.it\/2016\/\/05\/\/23\/#breadcrumbitem"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":4,"name":"The Music That Immortalised 90s Subculture","item":"https:\/\/www.radiotime.it\/2016\/05\/23\/the-music-that-immortalised-90s-subculture\/#breadcrumbitem"}]}]
