Hello, ....some mag recs that Lang didn't already mention: Music Coda- though it disappeared from my newsstand about a year ago Sound Collector Audio Review- great cross-section of genres covered. I especially enjoyed last issues review of Jabbo Smith. Badaboom Gramophone and Sound Collector- book format, w/ free CDs. Film Cineaste- shares some writers w/ Film comment, the excellent Jonathan Rosenbaum in particular, and it features a nice mixture of old and new, foreign and American, genre and art cinema. Books Book Forum- cheap and loaded w/ stuff, and a great way to catch established authors reviewing a wide variety of stuff. I also like Guy Davenport's "New Books" Column in "Harpers" whenever I catch it. I remain....

P.S. Are you serious about Blender? From their web site, it looks like Maxim's entertainment magazine.
Yes, a Maxim mag, and no, not serious. I've never looked through an issue but it seems completely uninteresting. Could be wrong though but in any case certainly no substitute for even a watered-down Pulse. Music mags I'd recommend are: The Wire Mojo Songlines and sometimes: Jazziz (declining a bit recently too) Downbeat (most of the time) BBC Music Magnet Fanfare used to be quite good but I haven't seen it in a while and Gramophone still has some decent material. For videos/film highly recommended are Video Watchdog, Film Comment, Sight & Sound and if you read French Positif and sometimes Cahiers du Cinema. ----------------------------- "It's people like us who took a mass medium and made it what it is today--a subculture."
