Enough Of The NME Threads. Lets Discuss How Heavy Rock/Metal And Kerrang! Magazine has changed Since 1982!

[RATED]
FILTERING THE COBAINS FROM THE STAPPS EVERY WEEK...

I'm sure that's new.

Van Halen 1 wouldn't have existed without Montrose.

Kerrang! was the Creem of the UK. One major change is that today's staff don't decorate themselves with long mangy beards, thick glasses, bald skulls, and denim jacket-jeans combo. That magazine made heavy metal seem fun.

I think there's at least a page of Pat Benatar in Kerrang #1.

Metal has seen the biggest changes. NWOBHM, Thrash, Death,Black Metal,Grind,Industrial to name a few.

Now Kerrang mainly covers 'Nu-Metal', 'punk' 'emo' and 'Stoner'. All very non metal genres. When was the last time Kerrang regularly covered 'Metal'?
Buy Terrorizer i you want true metal.

I posted this question in the Opeth thread, but this may be a better place for it. If a high school kid today told me he listens to metal, what bands does he listen to? When I was in high school Metallica, Anthrax, Megadeth, Slayer, and the usual t-shirts abounded, but are there any unanimous adolescent metalhead faves these days?

Then it should have stopped paying its writers and gone out of business about a year or so after.

And then had its name taken by some piece of rubbish known for its unreadable design.

And then promise a comeback "soon" every year or so from a redoubt on the wweb.

I want to put a fictionalised version of Kerrang! in a thing I'm writing and am having trouble coming up with a suitably punchy name for it. Any suggestions?

that has to be the Astoria one right? Kerrap rarely venture outside the capital if they can help it and it was an absolute belter too.

I tried to find a list on the Kerrap!... er, sorry, Kerrang! website, but there wasn't one in sight. The TV channel isn't even mentioned on the message board...

I haven’t bought Kerrap magazine for a while but on the studio diary it says that there may be a feature on Therapy? in the January 25th issue. Was it in this issue? If so was it any good? If not does anyone know when T? might be covered in the future?
So many questions, so few answers!
