Rating - Not for Rock fans
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.
Rating - junk mail
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.
Rating - Sonic Puree
"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.
Rating - Worthless magazine, unless you like awful music.
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.
