This looks superb. It’s a pity it wasn’t physically printed but regardless, State’s Faces of 2012 digital magazine is a sexy forward look at 20 of Ireland’s most promising new bands with original photography where possible. My Mmoths interview is in there too. Check out the Soundcloud compilation of the acts after the jump. The whole thing was designed by Simon Roche but do pay attention to the State photographers.
