My Magazine

I have decided to choose that to make a rock and metal magazine, but it will be most of the genres of rock and metal, and will use magazines like kerrang! and classic rock to base on my magazine, bands that will feature on my magazine would be like slipknot, blink 182, of mice and men, and more.
