This article is about the online music and film magazine. For Edgar Allan Poe's proposed magazine, see The Stylus.
Stylus Magazine was an American online music and film magazine, launched in 2002 and co-founded by Todd L. Burns.[1][2] It featured long-form music journalism, four daily music reviews, movie reviews, podcasts, an MP3 blog, and a text blog.
Additionally, Stylus had daily features like "The Singles Jukebox", which looked at pop singles from around the globe, and "Soulseeking", a column focused on personal responses in listening. Even though they never reached the readership of other music magazines such as PopMatters or Pitchfork, they still had a very consistent and fired-up audience. In 2006, the site was chosen by the Observer Music Monthly as one of the Internet's 25 most essential music websites.[3]
Stylus closed as a business on 31 October 2007.[4][5] The site remained online for several years, but did not publish any new content.
On 4 January 2010, with the blessing of former editor Todd Burns, Stylus senior writer Nick Southall launched The Stylus Decade, a website with a new series of lists and essays reviewing music from the previous ten years.[6] It is now also defunct. The Singles Jukebox relaunched with many of the same writers as a stand-alone website in March 2009 and continues today.[7]
Stylus Magazine adopted its name from the part of a record player which makes contact with a vinyl record, called a stylus or a needle.
