Lamentations of the Flame Princess will release five issues in 2007:
The Shameless: Unsigned and Small-Label Bands, 28 pages
The Timeless: A Very Special Surprise Issue! 28 page A4-sized format.
The Nameless: Covering music based on HP Lovecraft, his peers, and his influences. Special packaging, 52 pages!
The Skinless: An issue dedicated to GORE METAL bands past and present! 28 pages.
The Godless: An issue dedicated to those bands whose sole focus is religion. Whether the band is Christian, Muslim, Satanic, atheist, Hindu, Buddhist... doesn't matter. 28 pages.
In ancient Aztec cosmology, 5, 2007, and 68 are very powerful numbers, each capable of shattering worlds. 2007 begins the countdown to armageddon, being a mere 5 years away from 2012, the end of the world in the Mayan and Aztec calendars. Sixty-eight is the number of grand pyramids built by the Aztecs to sacrifice to Quetzalcouatl in determining this date. The Spanish explorers were shocked to find that they would often sacrifice five groups of sixty-eight to the gods at each of these pyramids every year in a ritual lasting for 33 hours and 27 minutes... 2007 minutes exactly!
In honor of this kvlture of brave warriors, LotFP has dedicated its next five issues to bringing its message of warrior principles and blood sacrifice to its reasons, through the concave lens that is called Heavy Metal! All Hail Metal! All Hail The True Metal of Death! All Hail Feathery Serpents With Names We Can't Possibly Pronounce Correctly!
... or maybe this is half-made up and LotFP just wants to make its numbering system honest, seeing as how five of the "weekly" issues in 2002 were simply double-sized and double-numbered to try to cover up the fact that weeks were missed.
