You know the drill; if you have something to say on this subject, leave a comment!
Personally, I get Cure and Shoxx, plus I’ll occasionally buy h’evn if there’s an artist that I like on the cover. Neo and ZY usually have some really nice photoshoots, but for some reason I’ve stayed away from those as of late. Cure is my favourite by far, but the translations they’ve been putting in recently aren’t always the best and that turns me off a bit. But they tend to feature more bands that I’m interested in, and I also like the member’s columns, although, Shoxx has that too.
Also if you ever have a question you’d like to see up on the poll, feel free to send it in! We’re always looking for new and interesting questions to ask!

I prefer Cure from all of those. SHOXX, Fool’s Mate are a bit ‘mainstream’ If you could say it like that… they mostly do articles and big photoshoots of the same bands over and over again :/
+ It’s lame to see same band in same magazine’s cover like 5 times in one year.
that’s just my view
Yeah, that’s definitely true. I hate seeing the same few bands on the covers over and over and over and over. It’s also nice that Cure does two covers, to feature two bands.
I try to keep up with cure and zy. I used to try to keep up with shoxx a lot, but I kept finding there were more features about the bands I was most interested in in cure over shoxx and a lot of the times both mags end up covering 1 or more of the same bands, and since I guess I buy it more for looking than reading it can be annoying to see two articles using the same pics layed out just barely differently. I like zy becuase I really enjoy the disc that comes with it of the photoshoots and band member comments.
Haha, I usually always buy Cure because they always have a good amount of bands that I’m interested in inside. Sometimes I’ll get Shoxx because they do hold a few bands I like and I like my mainstream stuff every now and then so I’ll get some issues here and there. I’ve gotten maybe one Neo before but I’m not as interested in what they cover compared to other magazines. And I actually like Zy but for some reason I’ve never gotten an issue before. I guess I’ve focused on others that I kind of forgot. I get hevn when I can (I have quite a few) as well as Alive.
But Cure is really the only one I’ve kept up with consistently. Although recently I’ve been slacking off.
I usually only buy Cure mags but sometimes I’ll buy a Shoxx for the free poster they come with. Cure usually has a lot of UNDERCODE bands, which are usually my fav bands, so its always my first choice.
Zy also has pretty photoshoots & I love the little bonus DVDs, but I’ve only bought a few. Not too sure why now that I think about it xD
Cure and jrock flyers are my addiction >< Every time I see someone selling them at a decent price on garagesalejapan on lj I try to buy the ones I don’t have. You should see my walls and bookshelves ||D”
