Arthur Magazine is particularly drawn to Noise music, Stoner metal and other types of Psychedelia. It reviews nearly everything from Load Records. The first issue of Arthur featured an interview with journalist and author Daniel Pinchbeck (author of Breaking Open the Head); artwork by Alan Moore (Watchmen, From Hell, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen); a 16,000-word essay on the 1967 Yippie exorcism of The Pentagon; and an interview with Arthur C. Clarke.
