IN THIS ISSUE...

Ahead of their upcoming Longitude performance in Marlay Park, we catch up with UK alt. rockers Vampire Weekend, who spill the beans on excellent new album, Modern Vampires Of The City.

Also in this issue - we talk to Alt-J about their Mercury-award winning debut, how they're dealing with fame, and what's next for the unassuming foursome.

We also catch up with Chvrches, Halves, Tribes - and shoot the breeze with Hollywood royalty: Kevin Spacey fills us in on his latest TV project, House Of Cards. Meanwhile, Donegal manager Jim McGuinness braces himself for the Hot Press Interview!

Over in Critical Mass, we review new albums from Jay-Z, Swords, Mayer Hawthorne, White Lies and live performances from Justin Timberlake, Mumford & Sons, and the Groove Festival.
