Outsider is a made- at- home hardcore/punk fanzine that operates out of Newburgh (Orange County), NY. Covering  NY, NJ, CT, PA, MA and the world. We write about the bands, art and topics that we care about...who cares about all that other stuff?!

The zine was started in 2000 while I was a senior in high school to 
publish and distribute my friends' poems and short stories. After the first issue, I started writing about my friends' bands and eventually, the zine became pretty well known to the Hudson Valley, NY music scene. Now, almost 14 years later Outsider is going strong. It is still run DIY and completely independent of sponsorship. Copies are and will always be available for free. Issue #27 is out NOW.

To find locations where Outsider is available drop us a line, give us a ring at 845-527-4853 (our store number) or send a SASE (big enough for a 8 1/2" x 11" magazine) to Outsider Magazine, 113 Liberty Street, Newburgh, NY 12550. You will receive one copy of the current issue and most likely a pin or sticker. For back issues, tell us which ones you want and enclose $1 per issue (issues 1,2,3, 5, 12 and 15, 22 are no longer available in print. Production on issue #28 will is happening now. Submissions and ads for upcoming issues are being accepted now!
