Introduction to rock music

I decided the genre of my magazine will be rock. I have chosen this particular genre because it is the type of music I listen to the most and enjoy. The thing I enjoy the most about this style of music is the realism and raw themes, there is no filter which makes this type of music very down to earth. The themes which are written into rock sounds are very relatable also.
I am a regular reader of a current music magazine 'Kerrang'. This will give me some extra knowledge and as a reader myself gives me an idea of the needs of my target audience of my magazine.

Bands which I listen to (in order of pictures)

• You me at six
• Papa Roach
• Thirty seconds to mars
• Slipknot
• Paramore
• Bring me the horrizon

Out of all of my favourite bands only one features a female. This shows it is rare to have a female of this genre of music.
