Of all the music orientated magazines that I subscribe, Outburn is my personal favorite. This is the only magazine that caters to my favorite music...techno, goth, and industrial music. Rolling Stone stopped being relevant 10 years ago. Spin magazine is a joke. Alternative Press is also a joke and has stopped being relevant many, many moons ago. I discovered Outburn when I saw an article on one of my personal favorite bands of all time, VNV Nation. Rolling Stone, Spin, and AP wouldn't touch VNV Nation with a ten foot pole because it isn't popular with the brainwashed masses. That was last year. Since then, I have been a loyal reader as well as a loyal subscriber to the quarterly magazine. What appeals to me the most about Outburn is that the magazine covers more than just goth and industrial music but also lesser known metal bands like Lacuna Coil and Opeth. I'm not a metal fan by a long shot but it is refreshing to read a magazine in which heavy metal bands are the [pooh] that MTV and Clear Channel, er, radio plays non-stop (i.e Korn, Deftones, Limp Bizkit). Outburn covers lesser known metal bands that MTV wouldn't dare play except maybe on the new incarnation of "Headbanger's Ball". I also enjoy the original questions the writers throws at the artists and bands they interview. They also don't sound patronizing or condescending one bit. And unlike Spin magazine which has now become a forum for video games and fashion as opposed to music, Outburn sticks to what it knows best which is music. Although Marilyn Manson is on the cover of the new issue of Outburn, at least I can be grateful that the editors didn't throw Good Charlotte on the cover. Another thing I love about Outburn is the free cd offer for subscribers. Nothing beats like a free cd. My only problem with Outburn is that it is a quarterly magazine, not a monthly magazine. I wish that rags like AP, Spin, and RS were quarterly magazines and Outburn were monthly but for all its worth, at least Outburn is reliable in terms of quality articles and doesn't insult my intelligence by throwing Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera on the cover like RS did recently. Outburn is truly one of the few magazines that I can enjoy reading word for word.

Outburn Magazine is one of the best rock metal magazines there is in the u.s.a. Outburn has great written reviews on new CD releases. They have great interviews with bands. The magazine is great for people who like newer music more than older. Outburn is more focused on newer bands, overall it's a great read. The only downfall is the magazine only comes out 5 times a year, witch is a bummer for me. The subscription is great, you get the newest issue about a week before newsstands, and you get a free CD all for $10.95.

I recently picked up, and decided to subscribe to OutBurn Magazine after being completely blown away by the content. Each page contains in depth coverage of multiple bands. One issue of OutBurn magazine will usually cover dozens of bands with exclusive interviews in regards to upcoming events for each band mentioned within the multiple articles.
The articles are very well written, and truly allow the musical fans to get a better understanding of their favorite artists/groups. With content including album reviews (usually over 100 reviews per issue) the magazine is sure to please music fans of modern music. The album reviews allow readers to discover new bands and albums that they might not have otherwise checked out on their own, due to the fact that OutBurn makes sure to fully display what genres each album falls into (in many cases multiple genres). This allows a reader to locate albums based upon favorite genres, and give the band a listen and discover whether they like the band or not.
OutBurn is extremely informative, and truly beneficial in getting to know more about bands and albums, and music in general. The magazine covers multiple genres, from: Black Metal, Death Metal, Deathcore, Grind, Metalcore, Nu Metal, Industrial, Power Metal, Symphonic Metal, Melodic/Gothenburg Metal, and even Alternative bands. The variety is well distributed, and the massive amount of album reviews is truly beneficial in lending a hand in the process of discovering new music based upon pre-existing musical tastes. The subscription comes with a free CD, based upon the available albums currently up for selection at the time of the subscription process. Overall, I am very pleased with this magazine, and I look forward to future issues to add to the ones I already own.

It used to be 5 stars
This used to be a great magazine industrial/metal/synth/goth (and free cd of your choice), but over the past year and a half it has turned into indy and Hot Topic teeny music.

A musical magazine worth reading
Well, if you read Rolling Stone and Spin (as well as Maxim's Blender), they both have one thing in common: Both are about image and pop culture as opposed to actual musical stuff. Read more
