ROBERT SMITH: Having brought The Cure’s 40th anniversary celebrations to a close, Smith is finally ready to unleash the band’s first new album since 2008. He explains all: “I think it’s going to alienate any kind of pop audience we still have…”

NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS: The group’s powerful new album, Ghosteen, is our Album Of The Month, and is reviewed at length here – ‘Nick Cave has surpassed himself, redefining the shape and purpose of his writing…’

BONNIE ‘PRINCE’ BILLY: As Will Oldham returns with his first album of original songs in eight years, we catch up with him in the recesses of a Kentucky bookshop to discuss octopus hunting in Hawaii, the joy of pseudonyms and songwriting.

PINK FLOYD: How does a 1970s giant embrace a new decade? We hear all about the Floyd’s ’80s creative rebirth, from band members, old friends and collaborators. “They were in it, heart and soul. It wasn’t just some money-making thing.”

JONI MITCHELL: We take a look inside Morning Glory On The Vine, Joni’s 1971 scrapbook of drawings and lyrics that’s being published for the first time.

JEFF LYNNE: The ELO conductor and chicken pie connoisseur tells Uncut about his lifelong search for sonic perfection.
