New Music Magazine

[JessicaAnn]

I just discovered a really great music magazine called Tracks. The first issue came out this week (Sting is on the cover).

It was started by the guy who founded Vibe and Spin.

They say it's supposed to be about "music built to last" so there's no Brittney, no Justin, no Christina.

There's a great feature on Sting's new book and album and a pictoral essay about R.E.M's early days ... we're talking Michael Stipe with longish curly hair. Theres also a very lengthy CD review section featuring a great mix of artists including Rufus Wainright, Al Green, Van Morrison, Outkast, Death Cab for Cutie and Basement Jaxx.

I highly recommend you guys check it out.

Here's an article about the founding of the magazine:

I'm really excited about the launch of this magazine, I've yet to see it anywhere, though. MTV has also launched a pop culture magazine and there are rumors that Q may come out with a US version. I am a very happy music fan!!
