New York Rocker was a punk rock new wave magazine founded by Alan Betrock in 1976.

[3] Betrock left the magazine in 1978, and Andy Schwartz took over as editor until 1982.

"[5] However, his optimism that "our chances are a lot better than others" of returning proved unfounded, and the magazine was closed that same year.

[7][8] Ira Kaplan, guitarist and singer for Yo La Tengo, was a critic for the magazine.
