Video Take The Detour

Indie music, cult films, live show videos, killer parties. Detour Magazine channels its suburban rage into inspired pop culture writing, plastering the web with Metro Detroit goodness.

That chip on their shoulder is their head.

The writers and editors at Detour Magazine are tired of the same old same old when it comes to pop culture reporting. So, they’re doing something about it –writing about music, film and the arts with a too-bad-if-you-don’t-like-us attitude.

While most of their readers are in Detroit, Los Angeles notably comes in second (followed by Austin and New York). Why? Because The D is the most influential city for music in the world and Detour has made a religion of extensively covering its indie scene.

If you haven’t checked them out yet, well, sucks to be you.
