I loved the only 2 editions I ever got round to buying and even after a good 2/3 years of separation (granted, only by the growing pile of i-Ds that are building on top of them) I still have a big love for this brilliant example of a purely music based magazine.
Being young and London-hungry (new phrase I just coined, meaning 'The yearning of one, stuck in the Wiltshire countryside, lusting after the bright lights and big city") I snapped up the copies of Klaxons, Lady Sov and Test Icicles (who are still sorely missed in this house, granted only by me).
Here are the 3 covers (the other side of the Klaxons edition is a photo of Carl Barat.... yawn.)

I say, "Bring back paper-based magazines!", there's not much else that's quite as satisfying as finding a new edition or even a new magazine on the shelf at Borders. Although e-magazine editions seem to be all the rage, it's not quite as comforting as being able to add to the stacks of those that seem to cover most surfaces in my area.
Also on this note, bring back Marmalade -For good looking, smart people-.
peace and love.
*note: In the last few minutes I have found out, via Wikipedia (where else?), that Marmalade is due for a revival after 'maternity leave' this year, can I get a "Hell Yeah!" (Is it OK that I'm far more excited about this than I am about The Face's revival?) *
