Plectrum Magazine – Issue 4 (Summer 2025)
For Rockers, Metalheads, Guitarists, and the Underground Faithful
Welcome to the Collector’s Edition of Plectrum Magazine Issue 4, our loudest and most unfiltered edition to date. Featuring The SKBs, Ivy League, Ettie, DayEyez, and a gear deep-dive into the Positive Grid Spark NEO, this issue is a riff-heavy, emotionally raw tribute to the independent music scene.
Whether you’re digging through distortion pedals, screaming lyrics into a crowd of ten, or recording clean tones in your bedroom, this one’s for you.
🔥 Cover Feature – The SKBs: Breaking the Rules, Together
In our 6-page centrepiece, we spotlight The SKBs – an ego-free, genre-bending collective redefining collaboration in rock and alternative music. Their chemistry is magnetic, their philosophy is refreshing, and their refusal to conform makes them one of the most exciting new voices in DIY rock today.
🎸 Featured Artists – Raw, Real, and Loud
DayEyez: Alt-rock meets AI. A fusion of vulnerability and technology.
Mahuna: Poetic acoustic storytelling rooted in memory and atmosphere.
Ivy League: Queer post-hardcore anthems born from trauma and rage.
Ettie: Riot Grrrl energy meets pop-punk resilience – fierce and catchy.
PAN, Plough, Graphite Stain, Gib the Rocker: Genre-defying sound explorers pushing the boundaries of noise, metal, and guitar experimentation.
