About Me

MyGen Profile Generator MyGen Profile GeneratorEAR CANDY is an eclectic, internet-only music magazine of articles, reviews and interviews of bands and music that WE like and think ought to be heard. While our main love is rock and roll (whether it is punk, heavy metal, psychedelic, hard rock, garage rock, blues, oldies or "alternative"), we have also covered Celtic and Native American music. And, we are on the lookout for new music, whatever the genre!
While we started as a 'music only' magazine, we have expanded over the years to cover many aspects of POP CULTURE such as: films, books, theater productions, comedy, and parody.
What we are...
EAR CANDY is run by a totally volunteer staff. It's a labour of love for us - we don't get paid. We are unbiased, covering both the unsigned as well as established artists. We are sometimes brutally honest - we "call 'em like we see 'em" in our reviews.
What we are NOT...
EAR CANDY is NOT a trendy-fashion-rock magazine full of yes-men. Mags like Rolling Stone already have that niche. We'll let them get everything wrong. EAR CANDY is NOT a simple fanzine. Just look at our roster of artists that we've interviewed, it says it all. EAR CANDY is NOT in it for the money. Our writers write for free. Despite not being "mainstream", we get quite a few hits for such a quote "little" site. For our first 5 years we were hosted on a "free" tripod website. But in 2005, we launched earcandymag.com! That's right, we have finally gone 'legit'.
How many hits do we get? EAR CANDY Since our switch to earcandymag.com we now average about 1 million hits a month.

EAR CANDY hits myspace!

Yep, EAR CANDY is jumpin' on the myspace bandwagon!  Since I noticed that quite a bit of the bands that we get review submissions for have myspace accounts - I figured, "why not earcandy?" Yeah,...
