**votes Metal Edge**

 

Any mag that has had Chris Jericho write for it, at ANY time in his career, instantly owns all else.

 

As for MODERN metal mags...PIT owns all, with UNRESTRAINED coming in at a close-second.

I use to read Rip. Towards the end of its run, metal was losing its mainstream popularity, so they expanded their coverage and were trying to be more like Spin (but still with some metal coverage). They weren't a bad rag when they tried being a "serious" publication.

I used to read Hit parader, Rip, Circus and sometimes Metal Edge, but 1st, the price went really up down here in Mexico and 2nd, Circus began to run articles on... The F'n New Kids on the Block !!! and also using some freak neon pinkish colors on the covers.

*** votes Circus ***

 

I used to have a Circus magazine subscription for several years. They had the best pictures of any magazine on the stands and great stories. The only thing I thought they lacked was a decent song lyrics section, they mostly featured only 2 or 3 songs at the most. I used to think they ruled, until...

...and I cancelled my subscription. I was very sad for me.

Metal Edge was the worst. All the articles were written in the same kiss ass tone by that Gerri whatsherface. According to her "Tuff" and "badlands" were gonna be bigger than the beatles. you could read stuff like that inbetween your sebastian bach and nelson pinups. rip ruled...

[Guest Ozymandias]

I voted fer Metal Edge because they lasted the longest before selling out. Up until '99 they were still pretty much the same mag.

 

Fer fuck's sake people, Rip's last issue featured the Presidents of the United States of America on the cover. Enough fucking said about that magazine.
