Launched in July 1990, its first cover star was Prince.[4] After EMAP Metro bought Select, they revamped its image,[5] and it became known for its coverage of Britpop, a term coined in the magazine by Stuart Maconie. Its 1993 "Yanks Go Home" edition,[6] featuring The Auteurs, Denim, Saint Etienne, Pulp and Suede's Brett Anderson on the cover in front of a Union Flag, was an important impetus in defining the movement's opposition to American genres such as grunge.

Later, John Harris stepped down as editor, and was replaced by former Mixmag editor Alexis Petridis.[7] Under Petridis, the magazine's image moved back towards its coverage on an eclectic array of music, aiming to reach what Petridis described as "a wide range of music fans".[3] The magazine folded in late 2000, amid competition on the internet.[8]
