In the magazine June 2016

With Bastille, Spring King, Tegan and Sara, Mac DeMarco and tons more.

This month’s cover stars Bastille are getting ready to return with their new album ‘Wild World’, and they’ve given us a world exclusive interview about how it came together. Having sold over four million copies of their debut ‘Bad Blood’, they’re coming back, sounding bigger and bolder than ever.

Elsewhere in the mag, we head to Manchester to meet the four distinctly different personalities that make up the brilliant Spring King, dig deep into Tegan & Sara’s pop evolution and discover the slew of unexpected challenges that were thrown in Big Deal’s direction.

We also take a look at the recent slew of surprises releases - from Beyoncé to Radiohead, James Blake to Drake - catch up with Mac DeMarco’s eBay-ing habits ahead of his Glasto set and try to bribe Loyle Carner to give up his nan’s famous pancake recipe.

There’s also a bit of Mitski, Glass Animals, Baby In Vain, Mystery Jets and Los Campesinos! Plus, Biffy Clyro’s Simon Neil is this month’s Indie Dreamboat, wit-a-woooo!
