  Sniffin' Glue
Sniffin Glue, the first punk fanzine, was produced by Mark Perry in July 1976 a few days after seeing US punk band The Ramones for the first time at the Roundhouse in London.
Because Perry used everyday tools that were immediately to hand, Sniffin' Glue fit with the do-it-yourself ethos which was already an important part of punk culture.
Sniffin' Glue again mirrored the lifespan of the movement and closed having run for only 14 issues.

 Alternative TV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
As the founding editor of the pioneering Sniffin' Glue fanzine, Mark Perry gained attention in the British punk scene.
Key members of the band were Mark P and Alex Fergusson, who described their music as "closest to Can and reggae-type rhythms," and were generally more innovative and experimental than many of their peers within the punk scene at that time.
The band's debut single was "Love Lies Limp", a free flexi disc issued with the final edition of Perry's Sniffin' Glue fanzine.

Punk rock emphasised simple musical structure and short songs, extolling a "DIY" ("do it yourself") ethic that insisted anyone could form a punk rock band (the early UK punk fanzine Sniffin' Glue once famously included drawings of three chord shapes, captioned, "this is a chord, this is another, this is a third.
Punk lyrics introduced a confrontational frankness of expression in matters both political and sexual, dealing with urban boredom and rising unemployment in the UK—e.g., the Sex Pistols' "God Save The Queen" and "Pretty Vacant"—or decidedly anti-romantic depictions of sex and love, such as the Dead Kennedys' "Too Drunk to Fuck" or the Sex Pistols' "Submission."
