Tank Magazine certainly doesn't give much away on the cover. The word ‘vroom’ and some Girls On Film-esque hair may not tempt many people into picking up the title but if you do you will be generously rewarded.
The kids behind London's Tank have energy and a keen eye for culture. Articles on Death From Above 1979, screen icon Catherine Deneuve, writer Geoff Dwyer, as well as a wealth of fashion features, make the publication as much about depth as it is about taste.
The current issue of Tank also includes a compilation CD (This Is Radio Tank V) with tracks from the likes of Coco Rosie, Test Icicles, Diamond Nights and Superthriller. If it's cultural capital you're after then Tank Magazine will give you a good return on investment.
