Heavy Rotation is one of the few independently run and operated magazines dealing with the extreme music scene here in New England. Run by Jessica Smith and a cast of contributors such as Joe Not Common, Nicholas Cigarettes, Carina Mastricola, and more. The magazine sells for cheap ($1-2) and is supported by a series of shows that Jessica puts on to help bring attention to local, as well as touring, metal bands.

Here is a list of upcoming HR shows:

You can order the magazine from Jess for $2, her email address is jessica@heavyrotationmetal.com. Some back issues may be available; the latest has interviews with Bane of Existence, Cannibal Corpse, Napalm Death, The Taste of Silver, and others!

By helping support Heavy Rotation you help support periodicals and shows that help contribute to this scene and help give us all a voice outside of the internet.

i <3 heavy rotation.

Wow, thanks Nick! This was unexpected!

One thing, though... I stopped charging for my zine at shows. They're for sale in Newbury Comics for $1 but if you come to my shows I give them out for free.

You can help me by offering suggestions/criticism/taking out ads/writing a review, etc... Thanks

save me a copy please!

also, some sick photos / articles:

I'm re-doing my entire website this weekend. It's embarassing right now.

Also, I'm always getting CDs in the mail. If anyone wants to write a review, let me know and you can keep the CD. Right now I am sitting on Nasum, Buried Inside, Fall of the Bastards and more...

Next issue due out in June. I'm taking a small break.
