COVER STORY: SIOUXSIE Back on the boards and in our hearts, Siouxsie is the Comeback Queen of 2023. Writers and Banshees tell the story of post-punk’s signature band and their iconic, ground-breaking singer. Just don’t say the word ‘goth’!

PAUL SIMON Inspired by a mysterious dream, Simon conceived his most potent album in years. But what do Harry Partch and Davy Graham have to do with it? Over to Paul…

PUBLIC IMAGE LTD John Lydon’s pain has always found an outlet in PiL, and wife Nora’s recent death is the cruellest cut: “It’s the deepest I think I’ve ever had to write.”

NILS LOFGREN Serving the songs of Bruce, Neil and Lou, and carving a niche for his own music, a Swiss Army musician on how Hendrix saved him from classical accordion.

JULIE BYRNE Bereavement also lies at the heart of the ethereal singer-songwriter’s spellbinding new album. But so does survival: “It was an act of defiance.”

MOTT THE HOOPLE In 1974, Mott arrived on Broadway to take America, armed with Midlands attitude, puppets and Queen. Then critical mass became gravitational collapse…

SUEDE As the ’90s dawned a pall lay over UK alt-music. How four young men in blouses, in thrall to Bowie and The Smiths, blew it away: “It was genuinely Dionysian.”

MARK VOLMAN The larger-than-life, usually topless Zelig of ’60s and ’70s rock and pop on the Turtles, Zappa, Nixon, Yoko, Alice, Bowie, Bolan, drugs, lawyers and more!
