The NME is to cease publication in print after 66 years, the weekly music title joining a growing list of once mighty magazine brands that now only exist online.
The NME.com website will continue, replacing the print edition’s cover star interview with a new weekly digital franchise, the Big Read.
The NME will continue to keep a sporadic presence in print with special issues such as its paid-for series NME Gold, to cater for music stars’ appetite for appearing in a printed product.
I doubt anyone on here has read the NME since circa 2003 (when I read it), and especially not since it became something that overworked vendors hand out at tube stations to throw away for them, but still seems a noteworthy moment.
I've never really read any of the 'halycon days' NME stuff. Perhaps some of you pensioners can point me in the right direction?
When I was reading it it was dedicated to hailing deeply mediocre bands like The Vines and The Hives as being somehow exciting. Mind you at that tender age I ate it up.
