Advantages: Well produced

Disadvantages: Ignorant

Ok, so this magazine has so far only received good reviews on here - this is about to change. They may know their stuff when it comes to classic rock, but why try to write about something they obviously know NOTHING about? To be honest i really think a tabloid newspaper could have made a better attempt at writing their article on the occult in rock/metal. The amount of mistakes was unbelievable - but they were not just grammatical mistakes, but they actually got stuff wrong! I've never seen a magazine be so ignorant. The average reader of Classic Rock may not have noticed the mistakes, but this is even worse because they have been lead to beleive a load of tripe.
So what about the other parts of the magazine? Well, the reviews seem fine, and the news section was nice.. but what is the point in buying a magazine when the information contained is in-correct? Many people will believe i am over-reacting, but if i am going to by a magazine, i want it to be informative- not give me a load of rubbish.
I'm afraid, even though i am sure this magazine would be enjoyed by many people, i cannot recommend a magazine that insults my intelligence. I cant remember the price so i am just going to guess at £3.50.

Y'see, what you've got to remember is , as with all things rock 'n' roll, nothing is wha it seems. Oh no. And the occult in rock music is just such an example. It looks good and can sound good too. But it's bollocks. I think you should lighten up. Get out more. Enjoy the sunshine and leave the witchy poo stuff for the clinically insane.
As far as Classic Rock, the mag, goes it is actually one of the best music mags dedicated to rock you can hope to find these days. Accurate too. I know, my friend, I was around at the time.
Hell yeah!
Merry Christmas

Needs a more rounded view to be of use. Have you only read this magazine that once? That's the impression this review gives.
