I'm looking to compile a list of music magazines that have folded in recent times. This possibly could become a feature article on Prefix. I'm forgetting some, but offhand:

 

-Mass Appeal:

-No Depression:

-Tracks (Subscribers acquired by Paste) 

 

-Pulse (Tower Records magazine) 

 

-DIW

Harp Magazine ceased its print edition recently:

Ruin Magazine is on hiatus, though it never really got off the ground.

 

Decibel is definitely still around in print form, unless my subscription is lying!

The shuttering of Mass Appeal is the third nationally-distributed niche music title to do so this year. In February, Seattle-based alternative country music magazine No Depression folded; Harp followed suit. In March, Resonance, a small, well-regarded Seattle-based quarterly, shut down.

I heard somewhere that Christian music magazine "CCM" has recently stopped printing, and moved to online format only.

Oh forgot about Scratch. I liked it but I vaguely remember it needing a bit more editing.
