About us
Phoenix Magazine is an independent music publication for artists finding a new voice and the listeners looking for them.
How we work
We listen first
Every release we cover has been played in full, more than once, by the person writing about it.
We write plainly
No scores and no borrowed hype. We describe what a record does and who might love it.
We stay independent
Coverage cannot be bought. Submissions help us find music. They do not decide what we publish.
What we cover
Reviews
Singles, EPs and albums, reviewed in full.
Interviews
Artists on how the work gets made.
Industry news
The business around the music, explained.
Phoenix playlists
Series for different moods, kept up to date.
