Psycho Moto Zine was a periodical published from the late 1980s to early 2000s, consisting mostly of short stories, reviews and artwork. This fanzine would later birth the Antagonist Art Movement, a consortium of like-minded artists, writers, filmmakers, etc.

The magazine was originally published in 1989 under the name East Coast Exchange by Ethan H. Minsker. Stolen copies where produced by friends who worked in copy shops during Minsker’s college years at School of Visual Arts in New York City and in Washington D.C. during Minsker’s summer breaks. The original focus was Washington and New York City's punk and hardcore music scenes, making it more of a punk zine.

By 1994 Psycho Moto Zine (PMZ) had transformed in to an arts and literary fanzine with reviews that covered underground art, fanzines, films and music. This connection between different creative elements was the inspiration for what would later become the Antagonist Art Movement. The Antagonist Movement would later develop its own publishing branch and put out two books: [1] and [2].

In the late 90's PMZ was featured in the Youth exhibit at New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York City's SoHo district.

Starting in 1998 and for three years after Psycho Moto Zine produced the Royal Fest at Alt.coffee it was a competitive fanzine, music and film festival again mixing creative elements. Fanzines won in categories of fiction, nonfiction, fan subjects, design and comic.
