Rock Sound magazine will arrive on newsstands this week with something of a new look. Following extensive reader research, the independently owned alternative music mag has gone through a redesign, plus new regular features have been added and the mag's sections revamped. The first edition of the new look mag will have Panic! At The Disco on the cover, plus stories on Tool, Placebo, The Flaming Lips and Hundred Reasons among others.
Confirming the revamp, publisher Patrick Napier told CMU: "With our third successive ABC increase we're going well at the moment, but you can't rest on your laurels and it's important to keep building on success."
Editor Darren Taylor added: "Rock Sound has always been the champion of the best new music and with the redesign we've managed to squeeze in even more bands, which means the readers get even more music for their money."
