In the case of the inaugural issue, we can expect a 10” transparent vinyl pressing of rare tracks from the aforementioned Pecknold, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Amen Dunes, Grizzly Bear spin-off Department of Eagles and more, while its 60 pages will work off the theme of “transition” (each issue will carry a theme, natch). Round one features a journal entry penned by recently freed West Memphis 3 member Damien Echols on adjusting to life after 18 years on death row, an excerpt from Gloria Steinem’s forthcoming book, a photo essay on adolescence by noted rock photographer Autumn de Wilde, a contribution from SPIN’s Charles Aaron, and another from Animal Collective sister/visual collaborator Abby Portner, among 30-plus other pieces. (via A Fleet Foxes-Affiliated Literary Journal to Launch in September | The Measure) via @brainpicker AND all proceeds go to 826 National! Pretty amazing.
