In the magazine April 2018

With Chvrches, Years & Years, Goat Girl, IDLES and more.

For third album ‘Love Is Dead’ - released at the end of May - Glasgow trio Chvrches relocated to the US, where they hooked up with pop maestro Greg Kurstin to record. We talk to them about this, the state of the world (plus obviously Martin’s infamous Harambe moment) and much more besides for this month’s cover feature.

We look back at March’s SXSW, which is also where we found Goat Girl, whose really-quite-good self-titled debut album is out this month, Speedy Ortiz’ Sadie Dupuis tells us about scrapping a record before coming up with ‘Twerp Verse’, Unknown Mortal Orchestra’s Ruban Nielson does his best to assure us he’s Not A Serious Guy, and Years & Years’ Olly Alexander spills about ‘Sanctify’ and his route to where the band sit in 2018.

We hear from relative newbies Anteros, A House In The Trees and Sofi Tukker among others in this month’s Neu, take a look back at the Class of 2018 tour with Pale Waves, Our Girl and Bloxx, find out what’s going on with Two Door Cinema Club, and Courtney Barnett takes on Anything But…

And loads, loads more besides. Find at one of our stockists, read below, or get a copy sent straight to your door.
