Barrelhouse is a literary magazine that bridges the gap between serious art and pop culture. We publish top quality fiction and poetry from some of the best writers in the world, some that you know about, some that you don't (yet).
We also publish essays on pop-related topics, like Magnum PI, Godzilla, Barry Bonds, rock, movies, convenience stores, and just about anything else. We interview folks you don't usually find in literary magazines, like Ian MacKaye, Emmylou Harris, Malcolm Gladwell, Chuck Klosterman, The Hold Steady, and Broken Lizard Comedy Troupe. We've published the greatest poetry ever written about Patrick Swayze, and about giving Ed Asner a spongebath.
Come on over to our website to read online issues, submissions guidelines, or to buy a copy.
Here's what some of the people are saying about Barrelhouse:
NewPages:
In three issues, Barrelhouse has established itself as a magazine with a clear vision and a strong voice. Definitely keep an eye on this magazine. I recommend subscribing to Barrelhouse immediately; I've done the same based on the strength of this issue alone.
The Urbanite:
A lot of literary journals today complain that they cannot support themselves, that people are too busy reading John Grisham and watching The Apprentice to support and enjoy "good literature." Despite being one of the newer journals on the scene, Barrelhouse -- which delivers perceptive writing and art in a well-designed format? -- is unlikely to face that problem.
Washington Post:
Barrelhouse -- a literary magazine born a couple of years ago over beers at the Big Hunt, a Dupont Circle bar -- has published the best four poems about Ed Asner that I've ever read. They're also the only four poems about Ed Asner that I've ever read. But they're so good that I don't expect to come across four better poems about Ed Asner anytime soon.

Greetings and thank you for adding me to your friends. DF
Classic Cars, Rock n' Roll, Elvis, Drivein Movies & Route 66!
Kerouac, The Beats, Haight Ashbury, Easy Rider & Vietnam!
ENTER ROADHEAD BOOKSITE HERE
The Roadhead Chronicles goes from the Cold War Fifties Pop Culture of classic cars and rock n' roll to the spaced out Spare Change Sixties of Vietnam and Hells Angels. Not the usual look at the era, instead It's written by someone who lived it and spent a life of being on the road from his beach bum days in Honolulu to the glitz and dangers of the Sunset Strip in LA, and his purple hazed and double dazed days in North Beach and the Haight Ashbury in San Francisco. The Roadhead Chronicles also looks at the history of Route 66, Roadside Neon Culture and old diners and dives!
Mike Marino writes in an offbeat and irreverant style with a beat and a cadence that is all his own. His writing style has been compared to John Dos Passos, John Steinbeck and Terry Southern and one reviewer likened him to Frederick Lewis Allen on acid! Readers and critics call the book "wickedly wonderful", "delightfully weird" and "automotively
sexy."!!
The book that will blow the roof off everything!!
I can no longer play hard to get. I love Barrelhouse. It's true! So true!
Thanks for befriending me. I will now follow you all around the playground, exposing you to ridicule, making you curse your parents for having given you the germ of compassion.
Check out “Gate. Safe!” at Admit Two.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
