Kerrang!

Kerrang is a weekly music magaxine that, in my opinion, has been going downhill for a while now. More and more features on bands such as kids in glass houses and other bands that are simply pop music. There are still some good features on classic bands such as iron maiden. There are also some features on actual metal (Shock horror!) It has free posters each week and is priced at £2.10. I have regrettably bought a years subscription which slows me down at reading my metal hammer! I wouldn't really recomend this to metal fans but more to rock and pop fans. It simply has lost the plot and is going for the 12 year old's pocket money than the cash of real metalheads. I have ...  Read the complete review

Kerrang! Magazine I get this magazine as often as I can. In it features: Free posters Interviews with bands or singers Tour dates Tour dates for bands Album reviews Feed back from either gigs or recent stuff that was put in to the magazines from before When albums are being released Ads for clothing shops like sohos Competitions Ads for wanted things like bassist or something It also tells you what's coming in the next issue. I think this magazine is great but the price is unbelievable I mean £2.10p for 1 issue! I mean maybe £1.80p id get it every single week but £2.10p is pushing it. This ...  Read the complete review

Kerrang! has been at the forefront of alternative-music journalism for over 20 years, covering genres that include, (though are not specifically limited to) rock, indie, metal, punk and in recent years emo. This certainly isn't a magazine that would appeal to your average 'Top 40' fan. Having since become a radio station, an MTV-type music TV channel, as well as creating the world-renowned 'Kerrang! Awards', the magazine is where it all began. Kerrang! is published every week on a Wednesday and has reviews of gigs and albums, interviews with bands or individuals, as well as news of general going's on in the alternative-music world. It also has letters from ...  Read the complete review

I used to love Kerrang magazine, and purchased every issue for about 3 to 4 years. Kerrang is basically a magazine for rock music lovers, and anything to do with it. Music spanning rock, emo, metal, goth, etc, with all the reviews you'd need to know what album to buy next or what gig to head to next. I suppose the thing that makes Kerrang so popular is that it really is mainstream. It's not often you'll find underground bands in there. They only really write about popular bands, or up and coming bands who they predict will be popular, so this magazine attracts a lot of teenage boys and girls who are wanting to know what alternative bands are 'cool' ...  Read the complete review

Kerrang! Magazine for most people is a household name. You will either relate it to as 'that Goth mag', 'sell-out trash', or 'cutting edge' - whichever opinion you share of the weekly rock magazine, it's been one of the longest running glossy publications in the UK since it emerged from the pull-out pages of more mainstream magazines in the early 80s. Throughout the life of Kerrang! it is quite clearly an extension of a commercial magazine. This become more evident in the late 80s to early 90s when it was originally a Metal magazine, featuring a vast array of new wave UK talent. Once the Glam rock scene became big in USA, Kerrang! noticed the increase in ...  Read the complete review
