Articles are accompanied by photographs or illustrations, and the overall tone of the magazine is visually impactful.

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It's just what I expected.
I'm very happy with my new subscription. I always stop at stores & glance thu the "Rolling Stone" on the shelves (once in awhile I will buy one), always wishing I could get everyone of them. Now I have it delivered to my home all the time. I just love it. Thanks!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I never received the magazine
I subscribed over a month ago and have not received the magazine. Service typical of everything I order from Amazon. This time I will keep my promise to myself and NEVER do business with Amazon again. I waited two months for an in-stock book on my last order. I have learned my lesson.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A mixed bag
For a long time Rolling Stone has been one of the most popular magazines when it comes to music, politics, and popular culture in general. There's a lot of good things about it. For example, they often have some really great writers (I mean, this is the magazine that brought us Hunter S. Thompson). And then on the other hand, well, I don't know the most eloquent way to put this, but there's a lot of things about this magazine that kinda suck.

One of the things that's really weird about ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Forget It
Not the Rolling Stone mag it used to be by ANY means. No Thanks, I won't be renewing.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - They will threaten your credit rating if you decide to cancel
The poor content of this magazine is the least of your worries. Think: credit rating. Once you put your mark on that little subscription card, they will hound you, threaten you to keep those checks coming. If you even think about canceling your subscription, a deluge of threatening letters will come your way. Don't even think about it ... stand back at least 500 feet.
