A jam-packed Hot Press Annual 2015 has just arrived, giving you plenty of big interviews to pore over during your time off this festive season.
It's been an incredible 2014 for Hozier and the man of the moment graces our cover. Inside, he opens up about hanging with Taylor Swift, touring in the States, how much his Slane appearance will mean to him and more.
That is only the start. Sticking with the music, Brighton rock duo Royal Blood chat about topping charts a mere year after they formed and how important it is for rock 'n' roll. Elsewhere, we present our critics' Albums, Tracks And Gigs Of The Year, review the year in dance with Decky Hedrock, check out the best of folk and look forward to TradFest 2015. We also relive the big news stories of the year.
Bringing the laughs, Dara O'Briain talks to Stuart Clark about observing the Irish political landscape from abroad and man landing on asteroids, while QI sidekick and acclaimed stand-up Alan Davies open up about his pal Stephen Fry and his beloved Arsenal finally winning a trophy in 2014.
We also meet Sean Anders, the writer behind both Horrible Bosses 2 and Dumb And Dumber To.
In sporting terms, Tommy Bowe talks about his remarkable comeback and former cyclist turned journalist Paul Kimmage talks battling Lance Armstrong and falling out with Brian O'Driscoll.
Other names that had a huge impact on Irish life over the past 122 months and are ready to talk about it include Luke 'Ming' Flanagan, Maria Walsh and Rory O'Neill – aka Panti Bliss.
We're only scratching the surface of what is a great stocking filler.
The Annual is in shops now and available to purchase online here. Enjoy!
