kerrnag! talks about rubbish music most of the time. nme talk about good music most of the time but they are such lazy journalists and bum every next big thing so badly which gets tiresome after a while.

if i had to choose i would go for nme i suppose.

They both feature the same artists on their front covers ever issue, so I go for any magazine I like the look of. Basically I buy any random magazine depending on who's going to feature in it. Q, Metal Hammer, Rolling Stone, Kerrang, NME, RockSound, a bit of everything really.

yeh, the thing with nme is when they think they've found a band thats gonna be huge, they always somehow find ways of slipping them into every article. they did it with arctic monkeys, and im sure they'll find a new band to promote as heavily as they have in the past.
i personally prefer kerrang coz it covers music i like :p

yeah but it's not like nme jump on bandwagons really, they generally launch bands popularity (for instance klaxons, and right now the twang)

I sometimes buy both mags. Depends who's featured really, although I'll usually tend to buy Kerrang instead of NME if I just get one. I must admit Kerrang show a lot of bands regularly, but if they are the "in" bands then they will feature them in their mag so that the magazine sells - meaning they can make more profits to continue the magazine/television etc. However NME also often features a lot of the same bands. But they're both good mags.

I've been reading NME every week for the past year or so.

All the metalheads say NME is just MTV2 in paper form. So what? I like MTV2 :]
