Paramore, Fall Out Boy, You Me At Six, 30 Seconds to Mars, My Passion and Steel Panther... sounds fucking shit.

Kerrang, bringing "metal" to twelve year old fashion trend-followers with no concept of music.

Well done, Kerrang, you fucking suck and you've now made it official.

Holy hell, do I see Leathermouth's XO up there at number 18?! The tiny pixelled page must be decieving my eyes, but if not - amen, some recognition for smaller hardcore bands!

Even if they are the side project of MCR's Frank Iero -cough-; doesn't stop the fact that they still fucking own!!

STOP PUTTING HAYLEY FUCKING WILLIAMS ON YOUR COVERS!!!! She has been WAY more covers then her mediocre talent deserves this year, especially when some other bands are NEVER on the cover at all! Let's face it - if Paramore didn't have a female singer then no one would have ever noticed them or cared very much about their very average music.

STOP PUTTING HAYLEY F**KING WILLIAMS ON YOUR COVERS!!! She has been given FAR too many K covers this year for her mediocre talent, especially when other bands have not been on your cover AT ALL!! Lets face it - if Paramore didn't have a female singer no one would have ever noticed them or cared about much their very average music...She is famous for being a GIRL, not for her performing.

Posted by amy | December 15, 2009 7:15 PM | Reply to this

I have to admit, I'm not a fan of Paramore (in fact totally the opposite and I agree that they are quite average) but its not true that shes famous for being a girl...look at Lacuna Coil, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Hey Monday, Versaemerge, Iwrestledabearonce... all have female vocalists and none of them are particularly famous.

Posted by charlotte | December 15, 2009 7:26 PM | Reply to this

hell at least she has a shred of talent, unlike a certain oli sykes, god the amount of times hes been on kerrangs front cover with bullshit headlines liek 'im sensitive really, please believe me im not a total twat' lol hes far less talented than hayley williams and im not saying that cause of his screaming if, hes ok at it (though personally i'd say look towards jesse leech or tim from aild if you want amazing screams ^^), god have you read bmth's lyrics?!?! total bullshit about wanting to get back at his ex girlfriends wishing deaht upon them, such uninspired bullshit and thne unlike hayley who's personality is ok he himself has to go and be a twat offstage and then try as hard as he can to get the nations attention by acting liek teh coolest lil scene on earth who hard as fuck then come back begging, kinda like a teen who leaves home to come back 5 mins alter saying sorry, that but constantly until you wanna murder the fucker, honestly he is 5000 times worse than hayley

to be fair kerrang cant constantly cover green day or not cover paramore or slipknot or any other bands that people love/hate - they have to keep as many readers happy as possible or they wouldnt make any money!!

Is it just me or do Kerrang no longer care about publicising obscure, hardcore, independant bands anymore. All the bands seem to be on heavy rotation, and there are very few bands breaking through because of this. Give some other bands a chance. And stop trying to be like the NME where you build band up only to tear them down by stop covering them. What about more obscure bands like Zico Chain, The Icarus Line, and Ghost of a Thousand? How come you don't cover them more often?

Kerrang! isn't a "metal" magazine. It's an alternative magazine, which means it can give us news about any type of music that has guitars & drums, in a more rock format, basically. And they have to sell magazines - their target audience these days likes the bands you hate.

Personally, I feel that if you don't like what the magazine has on offer, why bother buying it and reading the news? There are plenty of other news outlets that will give you information about who ever you like, and it'd be much better use of your time to read about things you support rather than those you don't.

I understand your frustration, but personally I don't agree with it.

I was sitting in my room, sipping on fanta, happily reading whats in this weeks xmas issue until i read the words...PARAMORE.

JESUS CHRIST! PLEASE STOP FEATURING THEM IN EVERY SINGLE FREAKIN ISSUE. THEYRE STUPIDLY OVERRATED AND THE ONLY REASON WHY THEYRE BUMMED SO DAMN MUCH IS EITHER BECAUSE 1) HAYLEY WILLIAMS IS SO SHAGGABLE OR 2) THEY DID THE TITLE SONG TO THE MOST SHIT MOVIE EVER: ( BUT VERY STRANGLEYPOPULAR) TWISHITE.

if you feature them next week, if i read the words words 'hayley williams' or 'paramore' i will NEVER EVER buy K! again.
Its takes YEARS for vastly superior bands like, placebo, to even get a mention, whilst that ginger minger is flaunted every damn week!

Kerrang! are pandering to the same audience that watch Peppa Pig, the same audience that want what everyone else wants - The Mindless, Pig-Fucking, Pre-Teen Fuckers

That's not what I meant at all, and I know you;re just trying to get an angry response from me.

"In a more rock format". The Saturdays don't play music in a rock format. Hilary Duff, Girls Aloud, Lily Allen... neither do they.

Regardless of what you're trying to twist my words into, K! is NOT a metal magazine, so it's ridiculous for people to tell others that the "wrong" music is being put in its pages.

If Kerrang was an ALTERNATIVE magazine, the y wouldn't have the most MAINSTREAM generic, pop shite on the front cover every single fucking week. Fall Out Boy, Paramore, 30 Seconds to Mars, Green Day and their ilk are as mainstream as it gets without actually having Leona Lewis and JLS on the cover.

If Kerrang truly gave a shit about music, they'd give under-rated, new and upcoming bands with genuine talent some coverage instead of rehashing stories about the aforementioned bands over and over again, every week.

The "Introducing" section has featured some great bands lately, including Manchester Orchestra, Iwrestledabearonce, Fake Problems and Polar Bear Club - who are some of my favourite bands. The problem is, that once these bands appear in "Introducing", they virtually never appear in the magazine again unless they appeal to the teeny-pop crowd. My Passion, anyone?

Kerrang was about rock. It used to be important, now it's just a gossip / fashion rag comperable to Heat and Hello. There's a sprinkling of decent artists in the pages every so often, but most of it is just the same old shit.

Whoa! talk about aggresive.
ok i read your opinion and it has a fair point but theres no reason to direct your resent for these individual bands.

Bands such as Paramore and Fall Out Boy are more emo than metal tbut they are still brillant.

and plus kerrang only pubishes what new and may i say good music is in the charts so its no their fault at all.

i think tha you may need to gain a better taste for music or a brain.

Posted by Mollyy | December 16, 2009 4:57 PM | Reply to this

Excuse me, but music is music, whether its mainstream or not. Mainstream just means a lot of people like it or they can get into the charts, it doesnt detract from its actual value as a piece of music. K! wouldn't sell half as many magazines if they constantly put it bands that no-one had heard of.

These bands wouldnt have gotten huge if they didnt have a shred of talent - some of the worst music out there is produced by some incredibly talented people.

Posted by charlotte | December 16, 2009 5:51 PM | Reply to this

Yeah, it's £2.60 this week 'cause it's a double issue, on sale for two weeks over Christmas. Same as we did last year, and the year before that, and the year before that...

It may be a scary thought to the 16 year old "Metalheads" who think that Slipknot are the heaviest band of all time.

But from someone who grew up listening to Nu Metal, I'd take Limp Bizkit over Paramore any fucking day.

Seriously, i don't know why people are moaning about too much Paramore. I love 'em but im far from 'emo' and they obviously sell alot more with them in the mag. It's a double page and a small mention here and there, it wont kill you to simply skip the page if you don't like them. Remember they are touring atm and with BNE just released this is bound to happen. In a few months it'll be like "Paramore who?".

Gawd, it is an Alternative magazine, which is far from Metal. Yeah, not everybody is going to like all of the bands in every issue, but near enough everyone here has mentioned at least one that was featured in which they like. As for Paramore, Hayley is good, and long before TwiShite <(I liked that comment) they were nowhere near as famous, but I'm sure you all liked them.

Now I don't like paramore but you don't HAVE to read the section with them in. No one is holding your eyes open tying you to a chair sticking the section with them in, in front of your eyes and forcing you to read it.

Well, your patronizing banter pissed me off so much that I had to reply, Hayley Williams, Sean Smith, Pete Wentz, Ian Watkins, Josh Franchesci and Cassadee Pope all run around the stage dancing, singing songs about "dating" and "love", it really doesn't get any more Rock N' Roll than that, does it?

This magazine USED to be for alternative and metal music. It now features the same pop bands every week.

This annoys people with decent taste in music who feel that their support for the magazine over the years has been ignored in favour of flavour-of-the-month pop band fans.

People like you who are clearly lacking intelligence - you can't spell, structure a sentence or punctuate - are the sort of people who lap up the shite that magazines tell you are good and are willing to spend your money on it. Kerrang knows this and panders to you and your ilk, instead of sticking to their roots and keeping the alternative music scene thriving.

In summary; you are an idiot, Kerrang! is shit, and people with taste and even just a little intelligence want to have their voices heard and see Kerrang! return to its former glory.

The end.

Wow your judging people by what they listen to? That's low. I'm 16, I have a life, average intelligence and erm.. the other things that Wise Man said. Yet I like Paramore. Slipknot and BFMV I don't like at all but BMTH is ok. And um.. Pop? Wtf? Cheryl Cole is pop. Lady Gaga is pop. Paramore isn't. End of story, times change maybe you should too or go listen to Radio 4 or something...

End rant.

P.S Hypocrite... Maybe you should read YOUR message before accusing people.

Hahaha... Every issue nearly covers the same story: Paramore.. For fucks sake, there are BETTER bands out there to put on the cover and to talk about.. I get it that Hayley is a pretty girl, she is.. but the music is fucking terrible.. seriously.. She can't sing, the lyrics are shit and the music is mediocre... They are only popular because they did the soundtrack for what is now a fucking awful movie: Twilight.
Please, as many other people have said, have atleast ONE paramore-free kerrang issue!
And that fucking dick head at the top mouthing off Placebo.. You, you fucking idiot can FUCK RIGHT OFF!
Placebo are one of the very few best bands out there, and far far far FAAAAR better than Paramore. End of.

Just what the FUCK happened to Kerrang?!

I remembered when I started reading Kerrang a couple of years ago. I was head over heals cause I'd found a magazine that actually wrote about the 'weird' and 'different' music I listened to, and not just the shit you'd hear about everywhere else. At the time Kerrang! still was pretty friggin awesome, I'd buy every single magazine every week. But now, I probably haven't bought an issue for what, three-four months?

It seems that Kerrang! has had a really, REALLY bad year, and I hope, though I doubt that it will ever be the same again.

And I DON'T WANNA KNOW their reasons why 2009 rocked, since it will most likely make me vomit! PARAWHORE FOR FUCKS SAKE?! EPICA, which is a great upcoming, underrated (by Kerrang! at least) band who put out the most amazing album this year, 'Design Your Universe', hasn't even been mentioned ONCE in the history of Kerrang!!! Why the hell not?! Can someone please open up their eyes for real music?? -.-

Okay, sorry for typing this much, I just needed to let out my frustration.

:)

Everyone has different tastes, they can't appeal to everyone. Yes they have changed, but changed for the best in my opinion.

Posted by Ben | December 26, 2009 7:09 PM | Reply to this

I know what you mean, it just kinda bothers me that they can't seem to move on from certain bands. What happened to introducing NEW music.

Not Liking The Review They Have on Hollywood Undead. It Was A Fucking Amazing Gig, But Clearly The Person Reviewing It Didn't Appreciate It As Much As The Fans That Attended.

OK , i dnt get any of these arguments
They do put metal in Kerrang .. jus not all the time, in this mag they did an interview with Metalicas gitarist, jus cos they also did an interveiw wid band lyk You Me At Six suddenly means thats the onli type of music they cover in Kerrang. They do a mix so any1 who said they dnt is wrong and shud shut up, if they hated K! so mutch why wer they even waisting their time complaining?

Paramore, Fall Out Boy, Lostprophets, You Me At Six and Hey Monday are all alternative bands, yes they dance, but what are you meant to do without an instrument, just stand? (Pete Wents does play bass, i know, but I don't really like him personally anyway.) The Blackout is Post-Hardcore. Where the hell will all the emotion be if he's screaming with no movement? you need to move and make the crowd response.

Anyway, K! seem to cover; Alternative (Post-Hardcore etc), Metal, and whatever else. Not pop, it's a magazine that'll cover a fair range rather than just one so you can't expect metal every single issue. I won't be back on this again because all I came on to do was buy a Subscription.

i agree that kerrang has changed, but if you want a magazine with new music in it, stick with NME like i do
