Forced Exposure was an independent music magazine founded by Jimmy Johnson and Katie The Kleening Lady (Goldman) (zine).
[1] It was published sporadically out of Boston[1] from 1982[2] to 1993, edited by Jimmy Johnson and Byron Coley.
It was printed on cheap newsprint with plain design and filled with corrosive yet humorous writing.
While there were articles and reviews of various counter-culture figures in literature (Charles Bukowski, William S. Burroughs, Philip K. Dick) and film (Richard Kern, Nick Zedd), the primary focus was independent, punk, and obscure music.
The list of contributors and interviewees includes several prominent figures in underground music from the time: Steve Albini, Mission of Burma, Sonic Youth, Lydia Lunch, Chris D., Tesco Vee, et cetera.
