Hey all, what music magazine do you rely on for insight into new music? I like Magnet. I don't really find much value in Spin or RS anymore ... how about you?

I don't read the new album reviews from magazines. It's always wider on the net. As for the interviews, I get the Rolling Stones [not as frequently as before as they're caught by the Obama-rush, so they're getting too politicized for my taste] and MOJO.
I only subscribe to Under The Radar, it's a good read for current, 'indie' music I guess. They've got alot of **** I've never heard of, or have only seen in my last.fm recommendations.. decent for when I'm looking for new things. They also usually include a download link for free mp3s and have a least one issue a year that comes with a free CD.
the only one worth reading is the chicago reader.
The Wire can be good.Rest are dog****,especially NME.
Still Q for some reason. I don't actually buy it monthly or anything, but it'll be the one I pickup on long train jobs, it overrates stuff obviously because it tenders to a general audience, but like my over go-to mag, Empire, it still holRAB some cred and is a fun read for mainstream reasons.
I also like Mojo & Sight and Sound.
lol
my monthly buy is Blunt. A alternative australian magazine.. with a good dose of news on local banRAB i love, unknown banRAB to checkout aswell as international acts... and cheaper than most others such as rocksound and rolling stone.
When I lived in England, I use to get NME every week nowadays I get all my information from the internet.
I used to read Rocksound but then they started sucking up to 'the scene' and became just like Kerrang! Nowdays i mostly real either Mojo or Hot Press. NME is the devil.
