Preposterous Creations featured in In Extremis zine #51

In Extremis zine #51 issue

Preposterous Creations is featured in the #51 issue of In Extremis fanzine with five reviews.

We do not necessarily agree with all views expressed by the author on our artists, but releasing music inevitably means to expose ourselves to criticism.

This periodical is not distributed by us; so if you wish to purchase a copy, feel free to contact the editor, Jean Pazola: extremis666@hotmail.com

For the record, the reviews are reproduced below, in their original French idiom. Please do not bother to ask us for a translation into English as we have no time to handle such a task.

And bear in mind one can form his own personal judgement as regards to the merits of our productions by listening to them in their entierety at Bandcamp.
