(PR) Slacker, Inc. and Spin magazine today announced a new "Spin Punk" Slacker Spotlight Station. The free Slacker station complements the cover story of the October Spin, "1977: The Year Punk Exploded!" the ultimate punk issue, and enables a personal, one-click punk listening experience.

The collaboration between Spin editors and Slacker to create Spin Punk adds a new dimension to music by combining an in-depth editorial feature with a personal radio experience. The Spin Punk station consists of handpicked songs representing the most influential punk music spanning three decades and is the musical counterpart to Spin's punk coverage. The issue includes an article chronicling the rise of punk, explosive interviews with the Sex Pistols' Johnny Rotten and the Clash's Mick Jones, a definitive timeline of punk in 1977, and much more.

"Spin has always been about giving our readers a new perspective on music," said Malcolm Campbell, publisher of Spin. "By partnering with Slacker, our '30 Years of Punk' issue provides a new take on the evolution of Punk. Readers can now simply click and listen to the music that has left an indelible mark on our culture." The Spin Punk station enables listeners to view cover art and read profiles of each artist and album to further enhance the punk music experience. Slacker listeners can also use the Slacker web player's heart and ban buttons to personalize the Spin Punk experience.
