HotHits! That magazine really helped me in the 90s. It was cheap and accessible, but it paved the way for me to explore other styles of rock music and of course, other music magazines.
I can still remember the rather 'simple' layout, the albums they feature, the 'free posters', the album reviews by Goldwyn Morales Azul, and of course, the guitar transcriptions of Gie Edilo. I still have Minsan (Eraserheads), Darkness Fell (Wolfgang), Love Fool (Cardigans), Lights Fell Down (Triaxis)---all featured in various issues.
