Manual Dexterity is a music zine that focuses on independently released bands, artists, and albums. Each issue tackles independent music from every angle, from interviews to album packaging and poster design to reviews. Each issue features three in-depth interviews with up-and-coming and/or veteran bands, six quick shorter interviews with a variety of subjects (SIXES), a tour diary/journal of the ups and downs of life on the road (Transmissions), an in-depth look into the art of poster makers and the process behind the posters (SCRND), discussions with the graphic designers behind some of the more memorable album designs and packaging (A Sound Design), an occasional article and pages and pages of reviews
