In our Forbidden Fruit special, we meet Kasabian, Chic, Solar Bears, Austra and The Hot Sprockets!
In this issue of Hot Press, we're counting down the days to Kilmainham extravaganza, Forbidden Fruit! In fact, we're so excited, we've put together a special supplement, jam-packed with interviews, previews, ones to watch, and even you own lil map!
Ahead of their FF performances, we catch up with Kasabian's Serge Pizzorno, who chats candidly about touring, new material, David Bowie's comeback, and of course - watching the snooker with Noel Fielding. We also speak to Chic legend Nile, who looks back over his illustrious - and discotastic - career to date.
Elsewhere, UK alt. rockers Everything Everything spill the beans on latest album Arc, while Super Furry Animal Gruff Rhys chats about Neon Neon, his collaborative producer project with Boom Pip.
In Frontlines, we examine how widespread homophobia is in modern Ireland, meet a lady who's living life to the full despite dealing with Multiple Sclerosis, delve into the incredible - but potentially worrying - world of 3D printing, and continue our investigation into the mandatory fluoridation of Irish water.
