Robert Del Naja and long-term collaborator Mark Donne told NME about the live music industry slowly waking up to the climate crisis, why the band turned down the opportunity to play Coachella 2025 and plans to work with Billie Eilish on her 2025 European tour
At first, the south Londoner dominated the alté world – but now, with a softer Afro-R&B sound and renewed TikTok fame, is he still “alté’s renaissance man”?
As the masked metallers' anniversary tour hits the UK, the founding member tells NME about the "beautiful" dynamic of the current line-up, how "the days of great music have come and gone" and we're awash with "horrible bands right now", and when fans can expect lost album ‘Look Outside Your Window’
Dom Harrison tells NME about the impact of this year’s inaugural event, overcoming queues and logistical issues, how “cultivator” David Bowie inspired him to curate a genre-defying line-up, plans to take the festival worldwide in 2026, and the “self-reclamation” that is central to his next album
Singer Thom Rylance tells NME of his regret at his row with Nash, his concerns for working-class musicians – and how he might play Nicole Kidman when his band support Robbie Williams
Nash spoke to NME about her 'Butts For Tour Buses' campaign, saving the grassroots, and what the industry and government can do now that music has become "an impossible environment for working class people"
The music legend spoke to NME about entering "a new age" with 'Father And Son' – his collaborative album with Art Garfunkel Jr – and recalled the emotional moment he and his ex-bandmate "ended years of estrangement" over lunch
The duo spoke to NME about "history repeating itself" as Wham! vie for Christmas Number One against Band Aid, returning to the scene of the "raucous" video shoot, being "mesmerised” by an early 'Careless Whisper’, and how the late Michael fulfilled his destiny
