Depressing News...

B-sides blog post by Amy S. Williams, February 26, 2008 - 1:16pm; tagged magazines, zines.

I awoke this morning to the news that the music magazine, No Depression, will cease publishing after its May/June issue. Citing many of the same reasons that other indie publications have closed their doors (check out the  story in Lost/Found issue of Bitch: Paper Cuts: Saying RIP to some of the best DIY), ND will move to web only content after 13 years of print publishing.

Some of you may have heard the story on NPR this morning - if not (or even if you did), please read the bittersweet letter the folks at ND have posted on their site. It is a reality check for all of us who value independent media.
