About The New Pollution
The New Pollution produces in-depth stories on artists and scenes across Canada and beyond. Its photography-intensive site design has won acclaim from readers far and wide, and the diverse lineup of subjects for month has consistently grown readership from month to month. In addition to high-quality writing, the magazine also features a complementary podcast, with content from featured bands as well as live, exclusive or hard-to-get tracks from the best indie bands from around the world. www.thenewpollution.net
The print version takes a vastly different, but still innovative direction. The magazine’s cover has been designed and hand-printed using a traditional letterpress design by Trip Print Press (www.tripprintpress.ca), giving it an original look and feel. The ad-free issue features 12 stories on bands including Jon-Rae Fletcher, Cadence Weapon, Malajube, The Concretes, Sylvie, and many others.
