Oh, it gets even worse with time.

My wife and I just had a baby boy!

I was a Terrorizer guy for years, till it got super thin and lost a lot of its best writers.

Metal hammer has shifted to a more 'true' metal approach, it has the best writing too. I buy it more than any other nowadays. ZT still gets a look in though, as does Powerplay.
