YOUR SHOUT
ELITISM IS KILLING THE SCENE
…is just one of the thoughts you lot shared with us this month. Here are some more!
YOUNG BLOOD
Absolutely loved seeing some younger bands on the cover in the last couple of issues – especially Cammie [Gilbert, Oceans Of Slumber] on the end-of-year issue and The Hu last month! Keep it up, please, we need younger bands to get those platforms. How about a Jinjer or a Zeal & Ardor cover?

New music remains the lifesblood of heavy music. We can’t stick young’uns on the cover every single month (we gotta sell issues and that), but as long as there are exciting new bands coming through the ranks, we can promise we’ll keep backing them. Jinjer and Zeal & Ardor, eh? Not a bad shout, that…
OLD MOANS
Are we really calling Twin Temple metal because they talk about Satan a bit? How edgy. If Amy Winehouse isn’t metal (and she obviously isn’t), then Amy Winehouse singing slightly edgier lyrics isn’t metal, either. Sorry.
