Stay away from this if you like rock music. This just shows a bunch of pop stars and rappers and gives bad reveiws for all rock music.

I got this crap somehow. I know I never ordered it. It is a waste of paper and ink. It wouldn't make good toilet paper.

"Blender" is an attempt to be an edgy music magazine. Scantily clad divas like Fergie on the cover! Interviews with the Jonas Brothers! Meet-ups with the latest rappers like Soulja Boy and TI! At times, it is humorous,and its Top Ten lists are fodder for laughter. They take potshots at celebrities, and their reviews are good for a chuckle.
Now,for their drawbacks-- not too long ago,"Blender" got in trouble for drubbing a Counting Crowes album WITHOUT LISTENING TO THE ALBUM. It's true there are groups you can drub because you KNOW their music is awful (Nickelback? Hinder? Creed?),but actually listening to the album helps back up your point. Honesty helps. "Blender" is worthy of being thrown into the blender.
Worthless magazine, unless you like awful music. August 19, 2008

In a nutshell: Blender would like you to think they're edgier than Spin (yes, I realize the irony there), and more relevant than Rolling Stone. One would think that these aren't terribly difficult things to accomplish, but Blender somehow manages to fail on both ends.
If it sounds like Panic! At The Disco, expect Blender's writers to fall all over themselves to bestow praise. If you think Katy Perry is the greatest thing since the last overrated and overhyped thing you liked, welcome home. Be sure to check out the hard-hitting Jonas Brothers interview in the September '08 issue, and get a gritty look at the Disney Channel underground.
Spend the extra ten bucks for a subscription to Paste.

Blender Magazine may be filled with content beyond the average music consumer's dreams but I think people should be aware of Blender's "sales tactics" and what it really means to subscribe to this magazine.
I signed up for a movie card YEARS ago and the promo was to receive a few free magazines....just sign up...well Blender has since taken it upon themselves to remove money from my account to continue their unwanted business with me and I don't even recall getting the magazines half of the time.
For the record I don't recall signing anything to allow Blender to do that. More importantly, anyone notice how they make it near impossible for the average human to retrieve information to unsubscribe? I no longer back a magazine that would just take money out of accounts, there was no transaction between myself and Blender that would really allow them such personal financial information. It makes me so mad.
I miss the good old days of Spin....
Boycott Blender, boycott magazines and websites that take advantage of its readers. No one cares about top twenty bands of the summer if it just means that they hope you won't realize you're occasionally 10 bucks poorer to their benefit. bad form, blender...boo.
