About Creem
In 1969, Creem launched in Detroit as a raw and unapologetic rock ‘n roll magazine, ushering in a new era of raucous, participatory journalism. With influential critic Lester Bangs serving as editor from ‘71 to ‘76, Creem was among the first national publications to provide in-depth coverage of Detroit and Midwest bands such as The Stooges, The MC5, Parliament-Funkadelic and Cheap Trick, and even coined the phrase “punk rock” in its May 1971 issue. What began as a subversive and scrappy upstart challenger to Rolling Stone continued for over two decades, breaking barriers, rattling cages, and connecting people to music in a way that’s never been replicated since.
Creem Cover, Oct. '72
A classic issue. The cover story “Humble Pie Eat Out” was written by a 15-year old Cameron Crowe during the time of his life captured brilliantly in his film Almost Famous.
