Outburn is a print magazine and online publication focusing on alternative rock, heavy metal, punk rock, indie rock, and other genres. [1] It presents news on bands, music releases, and events, in-depth interviews, high-quality studio and live photography, and music reviews. [1] From March 2018 to March 2021, the print magazine was on hiatus. [2] In April 2021, Outburn resumed publication of the print magazine, beginning with issue #93. [3]
Outburn was founded in the summer of 1996 by Rodney Kusano (rodent ek) and Octavia Laird. [4] [5] The founders initially discussed launching a mail-order catalog, but decided to launch a magazine as Octavia began doing on-air interviews as a DJ. In a 1997 interview, Octavia said: "I saw people do "homemade" zines & I thought I could do that." [4] Its first issue was published in August 1996. [6] Reviewing the debut issue in November 1996, Alternative Press praised its "stylish" page designs and wrote that it "[showed] potential despite some less than thought-provoking questions and a hefty cover price". [7] The magazine's circulation circa issue 5 (late 1997) was 3,400, double what it was at launch. [4] Outburn initially specialized on what the magazine described as "Subversive & Post-Alternative music"—electronic, gothic, noise, ambient and industrial music. [4] [5] It later transitioned into a mainstream rock and metal magazine. [5]
