Nueva FuerzaLocation:
Medellín, ColombiaCreated by Yaneth Alzate as the sequel of the fanzine Visión rockera, also included in the RAPMM collection, Nueva fuerza aimed to document the hardcore metal punk scene in Colombia during the 1990s. Alzate focused on independent bands such as La Pestilencia, I.R.A., Athanator, and Masacre, which originated from the suburbs and marginalized areas of Bogotá and Medellín. Their lyrics addressed harsh realities and rejected the mainstream music industry. Nueva fuerza was produced in a homemade style and duplicated through photocopying. It featured interviews with both Colombian and foreign underground bands, comic strips, and articles that condemned issues like bullfighting and compulsory military service. The publication also had correspondents in other countries, including Mexico and Venezuela. In the supplement of its final issue, number 11, Alzate chronicled the history of rock in Medellín since the late 1960s.
