Substream Magazine is an American bimonthly, print and digital publication based out of Delaware, Ohio, focusing on rock music and all of its genres and subgenres such as punk music and metal music.[1]
History
Substream Music Press magazine, founded by Marc Young of Erlanger, KY in 2006, began as a quarterly, full color, music magazine. Young released issue #1 by himself featuring the band Halifax. Shortly after the release of issue #1, Young partnered with Jason McMahon of Delaware, OH forming Kneelo Entertainment LLC, dba Substream Music Press.[2]
The magazine was nationally distributed exclusively through the popular retail chain, Hot Topic. In 2009, McMahon bought Young's ownership of the company and is the current owner and publisher of the magazine. McMahon quickly landed new distribution through national magazine distributor Ingram Periodicals for placement in Barnes & Noble, FYE, Hastings Entertainment and Books-A-Million retails stores throughout the US.[3] Kneelo Entertainment LLC has since been dissolved and the magazine is now operating as Substream Magazine. The magazine is currently printed bi-monthly and is distributed in the US, Canada and parts of the UK.
In February 2015, Scott Heisel, former Alternative Press managing editor, was brought on board as Editor In Chief. Shortly after Heisel's hiring, Hot Or Homeless Creative Group (HOH) was contracted by owner Jason McMahon to handle the magazines sales and marketing campaigns as well as special event development.
