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.
Smirk, Speculative Fiction
On his most purposeful and driven release yet, Nick Vicario teams up with members of Hotline TNT, Poison Ruin, and Ceremony for a mid-tempo homage to ’80s horror-punk.
Pixies, Complete B-Sides 1988-97 [Reissue]
Neatly charting the band’s evolution from noise militants to pop eccentrics, the first-ever vinyl release of this collection reminds us that Pixies’ trash was often purer than their peers’ gold.
Mekons, Horrorble (Mekons vs. Tony Maimone in Dub Conference)
At the ripe age of 50, the Leeds post-punk/alt-country collective revisits last year’s under-the-radar Horror LP as a dub record with the aid of Pere Ubu’s Tony Maimone.
