Max Thornell was only 14 years old when he put out the first issue of Let's Burn fanzine in 1984. A year later the young punk from Växjö had managed to put out another three issues plus a bunch of compilation tapes. Let's Burn was focused on Swedish bands and wrote about known bands such as DNA, The Bristles, Kurt i kuvös, Raped Teenagers, Slam, Avskum, Absurd and Existenz. But Max spiced it also with (for me) unknown hooligans such as for example the Bollnäs-band Gunnar & The Gangster (anyone heard of them?) and a share of British punk like The Expelled, Antisocial, Cult Maniax, Broken Bones and - very surprisingly - The 4-Skins. But he also wrote about punk from Finland, Belgium, Brazil and Germany. And many articles about vivisection.
If you are new to Let's Burn you will perhaps know Max from a series of tugh bands that he's played with over the years: Max & The Chainsaws, Jesus Exercise, Dom Där, Morte Paura, Siniterror, Satanarchy and Furbowl are only a few of the bands. Today he's with death metal group Hearse.
