Kingsize Magazine

EMAP launched this monthly music title in April 2001, focusing on the nu-metal scene and extreme sports. Edited by former Q journalist Ben Mitchell the first issue had a print run of 60,000 in the UK and 20,000 overseas, aiming for a circulation figure of around 35,000. After just four issues EMAP pulled the plug.

Dave Henderson, then rock managing director, said: "Emap Performance is committed to new magazine launches, but only when the product is right for the market. Initial sales levels of Kingsize haven't held up. While we still feel there is an audience for such a magazine, as Kingsize evolved we realised that its positioning and content were some distance from the potential audience."
