Nichola Browne has been appointed as the new editor of Kerrang! magazine. She will replace current editor Paul Brannigan who announced in June that he was stepping down after four successful years in the role.
"I am thrilled to be taking the helm at the loudest, most exciting music magazine on the planet," said Nichola. "I've been reading Kerrang! since I was thirteen years old - the magazine and the bands we love have helped shape me into the person I am today. I can't wait to get started with the brilliant Kerrang! team on making Kerrang! bigger, bolder and better than ever. The fun starts here!"
Nichola is Kerrang!'s eighth editor.
