A heads up – State Issue 03
I’m busy busy today so no time for any major enthusing (or internet memes either). I will say that State Issue 3 is out in print tomorrow (Thursday 1st May) featuring Gemma Hayes, Mick Jagger, Republic of Loose, Neon Neon, Jamie Lidell, Billy Bragg, Public Enemy, The National, Death Cab for Cutie, Daniel Lanois, Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip, The Vinny Club, Lykke Li, Halves, Fleet Foxes and the fascinating story of the Hope Collective. Full details here and a muxtape of all 12 featured artists can be found here.
Also, my Panda Bear / Animal Collective interview is up.
