TeamRock+ will give the company’s expanding international audience, which, say the publishers, has seen growth both digitally and in print throughout the world, instant access to the rich editorial content of three of its monthly magazine titles: Classic Rock, Metal Hammer and Prog.
TeamRock+ includes full magazine content from Classic Rock, Metal Hammer and Prog available globally for the first time, with new content every day and some stories published ahead of their street date. With mag features tailored for online, TeamRock+ also includes daily hand-picked archive content spanning 30 years of publishing.

Scott Rowley, Editorial Director at TeamRock says: “For years readers around the world have wanted access to our magazine content. TeamRock+ means that – wherever they are – people can read about their favourite artists on desktop, tablet or mobile. Our audience is truly international yet our mag sales are currently largely domestic. Now with TeamRock+ we have another ground-breaking way for us to get our portfolio to a wider audience. This is not a move away from print, but a way of taking the values of print – the access and insight that comes with great writing – and combining it with the interactivity and immediacy of online.”
