Someone gave me a 2 year subscription to Rolling Stone about 10 years ago. I don't if it is changed much since then but it didn't seem much of a music magazine. It seemed to be trying to appeal to people in their 60's. Their music reviews were dreadful and basically stuck on bands of the past with an occaisonal bad newer band praised like Wilco. Their political stuff was so slanted that it wasn't even close to being journalism. Even their movie reviews seem to be from the view of what a 70 year old man would lke. I stopped reading them before the first year was up.
I wonder why british magazines are so much better? On every subject and not just music. Like motorcycle magazines. The British magazines have much more content, written at a higher level and are less biased.
Only american music magazine I read is "Under the Radar".. They actually do write articles and the bands are actually pretty good that they have features on.
