Celebrate our tenth anniversary with the biggest issue we’ve ever made. FLOOD 13 is deluxe, 252-page commemorative edition—a collectible, coffee-table-style volume in a 12″ x 12″ format—packed with dynamic graphic design, stunning photography and artwork, and dozens of amazing artists representing the past, present, and future of FLOOD’s editorial spectrum, while also looking back at key moments and events in our history. Inside, you’ll find in-depth cover stories on Gorillaz and Magdalena Bay, plus interviews with Mac DeMarco, Lord Huron, Wolf Alice, Norman Reedus, The Zombies, Nation of Language, Bootsy Collins, Fred Armisen, Jazz Is Dead, Automatic, Rocket, and many more.

The noise rockers’ long-shelved follow-up to Electriclarryland arrives as a fascinating artifact of a band caught between self-sabotage and the lure of commercial pop accessibility.
Sierra Spirit, Rodeo Clown
On her latest EP, the Native songwriter blends personal and ancestral histories with soft-plucked steel string and powwow drumming to create a shimmering portrait of her heritage.
Warning, Rituals of Shame
The pummeling hypnotism of the doom-metal band’s first new material in 20 years still feels perfectly matched to Patrick Walker’s pained howls and Vantablack-hued emotions.
