In the magazine Summer 2011

Featuring Two Door Cinema Club, Death Cab For Cutie, My Chemical Romance, Tellison, Dananananaykroyd & more…

It’s festival time again, dear readers. To stop us worrying about you during this year’s season of field based debauchery we’ve put together our mammoth Festival Guide cover feature. Thirty pages, complete with top tips from bands, chats with Two Door Cinema Club, My Chemical Romance, The Naked & Famous and more acts who’ll be soundtracking your summer, and all kinds of other goodies. Don’t set foot into a muddy trench without it.

Also - we chat to Death Cab For Cutie main man Ben Gibbard about new album ‘Codes & Keys’, find out how Dananananaykroyd came back stronger with their second full length effort and check into the studio with First Aid Kit.

There are also catch ups with Guillemots, The Xcerts, Pete & The Pirates, ex-Fall Out Boy mainman Patrick Stump, Wolf Gang and Joe Cornish (just coming! - Ed), plus the story behind Tellison’s glorious second album ‘The Wages Of Fear’.

First On is packed with new bands, including the excellent DOM, newest crush I Break Horses and must listen acts Christian Aids, DZ Deathrays and Pushing Hands.
