Editorial
Yes, we’re back! Radioactive’s ninth issue in the house — no bullshit, no sell-out, just pieces, bombing and destruction, interviews… and did we mention pieces?
1995 is gone, but the memories remain in the hearts of the police, State Railways, and writers. Almost everything last year suffered from some sort of writer activity: inside tagging on buses and trams, window scratching on trains and subways… And outsides? A few buses, trains (not as many as hoped), and walls in very large amounts.
Unfortunately, this black-and-white format can’t fully capture the beautiful, destructive aspect of Finnish graffiti life during the past year the way it deserves — but at least it lets you know that shit is happening in the so-called underground!
It may not be certain if the truth is out there, but it’s sure that trains and walls are!
This issue had two interviews and two reports. Check them out!
The original magazine contained more photos than are presented here. Some of the missing ones can be found in our book, HellRaisers Crew – Graffiti from Espoo, Finland est. 1990 but the rest are long forgotten. The texts, short as they are, remain about 90% faithful to the originals. They have been translated and the very worst grammatical errors have been fixed — but that’s pretty much it. | Radioactive Crew, 2026
