I was thinking of something along the lines of the Missing in Action reviews (which I think are killer by the way and a great way of introducing brilliant old 'one hit wonder' bands).
Would there be any chance of perhaps a review of a 'classic' album each issue? I think it'd be great to get interest in some classic bands that for some reason or another people may not've checked out, but certainly should have (I know personally I would've appreciated a review of Suffocation's Effigy of the Forgotten to have came across such a masterpiece sooner than the mid-nineties). The possibilities are endless here with so many to choose from, and I'm sure all of the writers would have a load of much loved albums they'd be able to write a killer review of to possibly introduce to people.
Plus personally, I'd like to read reviews of albums I also regard as classics to hear other peoples opinions on them. Just an idea anyway....

Problem - one man's "classic" album is another man's turgid pile of dog crap. How would you decide what makes the cut and what doesn't? I suppose a magazine trades in opinions, though.
That said - if it's a "classic" album, what's the point in reviewing it? By the very definition of a classic, they'd all score pretty highly. Correct me if I'm wrong, of course.

Well if these classics are so good then make it a 'Dont you own this you moron?' section, with a review stating why you should own it.
