Sirhc Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I'm thinking about getting a subscription from a music magazine, but I'm not sure which one to choose. Overall I prefer British music, so I will go for a UK magazine. I have a prescrition on Rolling Stone right now, but that's too American for me... So please tell me, what is your fav magazine?

RedGirl76 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Most of the time I feel too old for NME these days... and Q is a bit patchy. I miss Select - anyone remember that? It was informative and very entertaining! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starlight Chaser Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Q. I haven't read it in a while though, it's a great read now and then but I can do without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Rose Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I love these types of threads Kerrang - never really read it, appears too far rocky for me NME - I used to read it until the quality took a nose-dive Q - Alright at times, a bit hit and miss, some good new bands Mojo & Uncut - Good free themed CDs at times, but both are more suited for older music with new bands only getting a look into The Word - is great, sometimes a bit uptight, but there method of reviews is the best when you have to read the review instead looking at the top to see it's gotten a X/10 Clash - never really read it because nowhere seems to sell it anymore. So out of all the magazines, The Word and Q would be on my list, with Mojo/Uncut useful when they cover older lesser known bands. The Word's blog (http://www.wordmagazine.co.uk/blog) has kept me busy when at work several times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darlene_Ihnfsa Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 to be informed about bands or to learn music? :thinking: i only read: Guitarist (spanish version). and so it's ... "spin-offs" (is it the right word?) (Total Guitar, Chords). mine is just to learn music, but it also have info about music, but that have few Coldplay-like bands there :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirhc Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Thanks for all the info! I found NME in a store here this week, and it is nice but seems indeed more like a 'young' magazine. I guess I'm too old for it too :confused: Q sounds good, I'm gonna try to find one copy of it (but I doubt it is available in Belgium). But I wil check out te site! Mojo & Uncut, I've bought them when I was in London this summer, but as you say Kite, it was more about older music (though there was a nice article about Fleet Foxes) I've never heard of The Word, but it sounds good! I'm gonna check out their site right away :dance: Ariadnasquire, I love both but in the first place I'd like to be informed. I don't play the guitar that often anymore because I'm all into piano lately, and there aren't any good piano magazines... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w1ll1am7 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Q has the best review section. I have found so many artists through that magazine, NME is good as well. But I really like Q...I'm not so much interested in the articles as I am the new music waiting to be discovered! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
