CARTEL
Cartel are back in action with a new album on a new label, so we recruited All Time Low joker Alex Gaskarth to get us the lowdown.


JEFFREE STAR

The internet’s first fierce ’n’ fab superstar is loved equally by old-school punks and straight kids from the suburbs. You got a problem with that, bitches?

I seriously think you guys need to show some love to Brother Ali (even though he's hip hop) & Blacklisted.  I do love your magazine to pieces, though.
