Been buying every issue and now have a regular order. Great mag that features the full bracket of the most of my listening choices. Just a small comment though. How ’bout every issue a seperate review of the more metal edge of prog with bands like Cynic and Between The buried and Me etc….So far the small mention and scattered articles have been great. Coheed & Cambria story was great. RUSH covers issue being my favorite so far.

Like some of the comments above. I really struggled to get a copy of issue 2. Anyway, I eventually found a shop in Washington stocked with several copies. Better CD than issue 1, some great stuff. The content as ever is excellent. It’s great to see so many new bands. I love all the 70s stuff but I read all about that in the 70’s, 80’s, 90’s etc… Thanks for supporting such great new music.

Clearly someone doesn’t want this magazine to succeed – ordered mine direct this time on 22nd May, still waiting. I know it says allow 28 days but hell they could have walked it from Bath to Bristol by now…

You should find some copies of the magazine on ebay, which should be available in all countries.

I’m a U.S. reader and panicked at first and bought issue 1 on eBay UK for about $22 in late-April and then watched it show up at my local Borders (in the L.A. area) about a week later, so I felt like a sucker. At any rate, if you live by a Borders, start checking it (or call them) once a week probably starting in June and you can hopefully get a copy of issue 2 sometime during next month. Good luck everyone!

What on earth is going on with the distribution of this magazine? In fact does it actually exist at all? I couldn’t find issue 1 anywhere and this week I haven’t been able to find issue 2 either. If you want people to buy something then you have to make it available surely? I am totally infuriated to be honest and it makes me want to just forget about even trying to buy it in future, especially as I don’t see any kind of proper response from you regarding all the similar complaints. Get your act together.

The price is too much for this magazine. Especially when they said it’s a “free” CD.

Other than that, I’m finding them pretty entertaining. Though I didn’t like the top 50. Was incredibly boring and depressing. Seems like it was voted by half-hearted prog fans.

Makes you think, do we really lack good prog rock bands when this top 50 includes so many repetitions of the same band ^^! I think I counted 6 genesis albums, 3 porcupine tree (there not that good!). The rest consisted of a lot of rush, yes, marillion and pink floyd. As expected I surpose :S

Thanks for that Julio – what a STUPID set up. IS someone determined NOT to see this magazine sell? Price, availability and now hiding it on the online sales page? If Jerry wasn’t paranoid he’d every right to be now!
