Description

Book of BiFim
~1985 (based on ads)
Auckland, New Zealand
 

Extremely rare ~1985 Australian music weekly focused on the rock and alternative music scene in Auckland. “Alternative Music Across Auckland” was both the radio station’s (bFM) and the magazine’s semi-official byline and BiFiM certainly stood as the foremost Kiwi publication for such. BiFiM published plenty of engaging, often irreverent journalism, championed local bands, many of which were otherwise unlikely to get a look-in, and captured the youthful energies of Auckland’s student/nascent hipster scene. Bands/musicians covered in this issue include:

  • The Residents
  • Bird Nest Roys
  • The Pteradactyls
  • Jive Bombers
  • Flamin' Groovies
  • The Bats
  • Headless Chicken


17" x 12". 22 pages. Great time capsule of NZ alt music history!
