I like Harp an awful lot. And copper press. does that count as a magazine?

Arthur! Wax Poetics! The Wire! Mojo! Shindig! Ugly Things!

btw, great art show the other week here in Bton, Senor Glucose.

Trouser Press was great. It ran from 1974 - 1984. I wish I had kept all of my old issues.

i like xlr8r, under the radar, and fader..depending on the issues.

I used to like Rolling Stone because they always covered all genres of music. I had a subscription for years until I realized that the magazine became more about advertising than music. There's an ad on every other page!

I wasn't around for it, but the Lester Bangs-era Creem sounds like it was pretty good. These days, Paste does a good if somewhat superficial job of covering the latest indie acts.

Spin was actually quite good in the early '90s (when they had the guts to call Teenage Fanclub's "Bandwagonesque" the best album of the year over "Nevermind") but has lost its way since then. The Wire is great if you want in depth stories about obscure avant garde and electronica.

Of course, it's all about online pubs now, and my favorite page for music reviews and features is AVclub.com, with pitchforkmedia.com coming in a somewhat distant second.

I have that Teenage Fanclub CD and I still play it to this day.

Bandwagonesque was a masterpiece.

Magazine: Flipside...it's been defunct for about 9 years now, but it was great. And yes, Spin in the 80's/early 90's when they did investigative journalism with William Vollman trying to rescue a Thailand sex slave. Ah those were the days.

Downbeat, of course.

I have a longstanding subscription to The Big Takeover which i just adore

nme.

that is all.

This.

I never read print music magazines anymore, even though I love music and am a magazine addict. The guys at Northside News will attest to this addiction - they are my dealers.

Like Matt, I like online sources - the avclub is good. Pitchfork can drive me crazy, but I know that it's a reliable source for "my kind" of music. My new favorite place to see perspectives on music is earlboykins.blogspot.com/ - my guy found it and I really enjoy the nerdy joy he takes in graphically representing music that I listen to.

CMJ too for the free CD's that I still listen to.

I like Rolling Stone but more for the political coverage. I get a free subscription to Spin but barely flip through it.

I'd say TigerBeat, but you don't know me well enough to recognize my sarcasm. I used to pick up Creem and subscribed to Rolling Stone back when I was driving around the Great Midwest listening to my 8-tracks. Thanks to Al Gore, I don't have to shuffle through paper to read about music anymore.

I've enjoyed Filter of the last couple of years. They also have online only magazine.
