Plectrum Magazine – Issue 5 (Oct–Dec 2025)

Your loudest source for rock and metal, delivered worldwide.

In this autumn edition of Plectrum, we honour Ozzy Osbourne – Birmingham’s Son and Heavy Metal’s Eternal Voice – with a powerful tribute feature that charts his journey from Black Sabbath’s groundbreaking beginnings to his final bow. Alongside this historic centrepiece, Issue 5 dives deep into the underground and unearths some of the boldest new names in rock and metal.

Highlights include:

No Drinks for Jimmy crashing the gates with a pop-punk rallying cry.

That Darn Racket turning turbulence into unapologetic anthems.

Electric Bone Rattle descending into classic metal darkness.

Reduction in Force confronting labels with fearless alt-rock defiance.

Impulse Nine, Solamente, Noctæra, Arcade Fortress, The Spitting Pips, and more delivering music that transforms struggle into sound.

Backstage Pass with Jeff Vidov – the anthemic storytelling behind New York I’m Coming to You.

Gear spotlight: Positive Grid Spark Neo – is it the smartest wireless guitar practice rig yet?

With playlist picks, blog highlights, and gear reviews rounding out the issue, Plectrum Magazine continues to amplify voices across the underground and beyond.

Why read this issue?
