Issue 23

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.

What their label says...

BONDE DO ROLE - Pervy office juniors, natural-born hookers, trashy mashups, Diplo-baiting and gonzo sampling: Bonde Do Roles bastardised baile funk speaks the universal language of laser-guided debauchery
BJÖRK - Plan B talks to Björk about her new album Volta where she summons up a pan-global marching band of tribal drums, seafaring horns, fighting talk, perpetual motion and fierce love
RIOT GRRRL - Riot Grrrl exploded the Nineties indie status quo with punk polemic, radical picnics, cut´n´paste fervour and electrifying feminist scream-pop. Fifteen years on, The Riot Project unearths the zines, flyers, records and passion, and looks at the legacy of the original rebel girls
TAKEN BY TREES - How former Concrete Victoria Bergsman spirited herself away from the bright lights and into the woods, happy to be Taken By Trees
GOGOL BORDELLO - As global gypsy-punk gang Gogol Bordello storm the world music barricades with a furiously fun new album, their ebullient captain Eugene Hutz talks tall tales, wild tunes and the hipster reappropriation of Roma music
