We never struggle to fill the pages of Classic Rock. If anything, the hard part – especially in recent, release-heavy weeks and months – is often deciding who to cover. For every band or artist you’ll read about in the magazine, there are almost always several other, eminently worthy candidates that we couldn’t fit in. So while festival headliners – and, yes, surefire cover stars – are thinning on the ground, the meat of the rock landscape is in very, very good shape; an embarrassment of first-class, below-the-surface riches that most of the world doesn’t take a look at.
Maybe that’s changing. Maybe bands/ artists and styles proliferate so quickly these days (for free, mostly online)
