FEATURES 10: Panda Bear: Ahead of the release of his new album, Tomboy, our cover star Noah Lennox tells us that multiple personalities can be confusing. 13: Kode9 & The Spaceape: The cutting edge dubsteppers talk about everything under the sun; the Black Sun, that is. 14: America Indie celebrates the simultaneous release of Cold Weather and Meek's Cutoff by interviewing respective directors Aaron Katz and Kelly Reichardt. 16: Trail of Dead vs Rival Schools: Co-headliners extraordinaire square up in a journalistic face-off. 18: Rachel Adams: tells us all about her love of paper ahead of a solo show in Glasgow's Duchy Gallery. 19: After being demonised by the Evening Times, Jeremy Millar talks about his CCA exhibition and how freaky it is to see a highly realistic sculpture of yourself drowned. Omar Zingaro Bhatia: The Skinny Award winner tells us why his favourite subject is himself. 20: James Blake: In a Scottish exclusive, the Londoner seems suitably unruffled by his catapulting into the spotlight.

This one’s multi-talented. 35: fashion: Looking forward to the fashionista events of the next month, including Nightwalk and No Concessions at Inspace. 36: Food & Drink: How to homebrew – a guide from a novice and some experts.
