"Paste Magazine is one of the fastest growing independently published entertainment magazines in the country, recently named "Magazine of the Year" at the 2006 PLUG Independent Music Awards. We pride ourselves in being the premier magazine for people who still enjoy discovering new music, prize substance and songcraft over fads and manufactured attitude, and appreciate quality music in whatever genre it might inhabit-indie rock, Triple-A, Americana, folk, blues, jazz, etc." http://www.pastemagazine.com/
This is how
Paste describes themselves, but this magazine is so much more. There are tons of film and book reviews as well as free DVD's and music CD's attached to each issue. I enjoy the online connection, but nothing beats the actual real deal when it comes to this particular magazine. An enjoyable launch of subchannels exists and are worth checking out.
