'''''Les Inrockuptibles''''' ({{IPA-fr|lezɛ̃ʁɔkypˈtiblə}}) is a [[France|French]] cultural [[magazine]]. Started as a monthly magazine in 1986, it became weekly in 1995. The name is a play on "Les Incorruptibles", the [[French language|French]] title of the American television series ''[[The Untouchables (1959 TV series)|The Untouchables]]''. Les Inrockuptibles is routinely nicknamed "''Les Inrocks''".
'''''Les Inrockuptibles''''' ({{IPA-fr|lez‿ɛ̃ʁɔkyptibl|lang}}), abbreviated as '''''Les Inrocks''''', is a French cultural magazine. Started as a monthly in 1986, it became weekly in 1995. As of 2021, it has gone back to a monthly format. In the beginning, [[rock and roll|rock]] music was the magazine's primary focus, though every issue included articles on other topics, generally with a [[left-wing]] perspective.


The magazine has produced several tribute records, including ''[[I'm Your Fan]]'' to Leonard Cohen in 1991, ''[[The Smiths Is Dead]]'' in 1996, and ''[[Monsieur Gainsbourg Revisited]]'' in 2006. Since 1988, it has included CD [[Compilation album|compilation]]s as part of individual issues.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://bruno.cornen.pagesperso-orange.fr/Rock_les%20compils%20des%20Inrocks.htm |title=Les Compils de "Les Inrockuptibles"|website=La discothèque de Mister Bruno |language=fr}}</ref>
In the beginning, [[rock and roll|rock]] music was the magazine's primary focus, though every issue included articles on other artistic domains. Currently, many other topics are tackled: [[film|cinema]], [[books]], society, etc.


Guillaume B.

The magazine tends to take a [[left-wing]] approach to art and society, lending itself to accusations of [[elitism]] and [[snob]]bishness. Despite this, the magazine was instrumental in popularising [[indie (music)|indie]] rock music with bands such as [[the Smiths]] and [[The House of Love]] in France and Francophone countries. It was unofficially coupled with the radio show by [[Bernard Lenoir]] having a nearly identical name L'inrockuptible.


There is a Spanish-language edition of the magazine made in Argentina, named ''Los Inrockuptibles''.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.losinrocks.com/ |title=Los Inrockuptibles |language=es |access-date=25 April 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121102140741/http://www.losinrocks.com/ |archive-date=2 November 2012 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
The magazine produced several tribute records, including the influential ''[[I'm Your Fan]]'' to Leonard Cohen in 1991, ''[[The Smiths is dead]]'' in 1996 and ''[[Monsieur Gainsbourg Revisited]]'' in 2006. It periodically issues CD [[Compilation album|compilation]]s.
